They are virtually the same exact QB with the same exact style. Only difference is that Hurts was able to get it done in the post season whereas Jackson has yet to pull off anything special in that regard. 

I would go in and give him an offer anywhere between 3-5% less across the board that Hurts got for the reasons cited above.

Naw there's a pretty big difference between the two. Hurts' team around him is far better than the team around Lamar. Hurts' team is stacked on Offense and Defense. The team around Lamar has only gotten worse these past two seasons.

I agree the Eagles team as a whole is better currently. Not either QB's fault and not really an impact on this negotiation.  The issue separating them is not the money. The real issue the Ravens have is the 100% guaranteed contract. It is just not going to happen with his past.  I cannot blame them, I would not do it. They did give Lamar the ability to see if he could get a full guaranteed contract from someone else.  We will see if he can. Since I am not a Ravens fans I hope they do that.
