He's freaking amazing. But this is nothing new! He was this way in College and i was shocked Lamar fell so far in the draft! It was the preconceived notions about running QBs and abject laziness! Ozzie probably couldn't believe his good fortune!
"Nobody will want Lamar, so I'll wait until pick 32 where i still have 5 years of control, and it's the cheapest 1st Round slot... Hall of Fame! Here I come!"
If we didn't already have Russell, I'm sure John Schneider would have drafted Lamar Jackson. But Ozzie, in his infinite wisdom, beat everyone else to the punch. Then he had the good fortune to have John Harbaugh as his coach. A man who isn't afraid to tailor his coaching to team needs.
And how lucky were they that their current OC was available? "Hey, would you like to come coach Lamar Jackson?"
" Oh! Hell yeah! "
Everything fell in to place.
