Before the franchise tag window closed this past Tuesday at 4:00 PM, the Baltimore Ravens placed a non-exclusive tag on Lamar Jackson.Ian Rapoport@RapSheetThe #Ravens have officially franchised tagged QB Lamar Jackson, giving him the non-exclusive tag.116111469The #Ravens have officially franchised tagged QB Lamar Jackson, giving him the non-exclusive tag. https://t.co/MXzOHvJbWIThe two had hoped to agree on a long-term deal before the deadline but the two sides are still off in talks. While Jackson represents himself in free agency and is likely seeking a contract similar to the fully-guaranteed five-year $230 million deal the Cleveland Browns gave Deshaun Watson.On Undisputed with Skip and Shannon, Shannon Sharpe was asked if he thought Lamar Jackson would get a deal done if he had an agent. Sharpe doesn't agree and thinks that all an agent does is act as a buffer between the agent and the team."Agent or no agent, asking for a fully guaranteed contract of this significant amount when there's only one of those out of 1500 players that have contracts, hell nah. The only thing that agent can do is act as a buffer as to what the team has said and what you're asking for."Agent works at the quest of who, you, me and his client. So if he says okay, this is what I got for you he's like no, I want more, what the agent gonna do? It only works if the client is willing to accept what said team has offered. So I don't believe Skip, I don't believe it. But at the end of the day, the agent's best job is to be as a buffer, to be as a filter so you don't hear all that negative stuff that is going to be said."UNDISPUTED@undisputedWould Lamar Jackson have a deal done if he had an agent? “I don’t believe it.

However, it seems like it's the opposite since he's been tagged.One reason why it's tough for teams to make an offer is that the Ravens have five days to match the offer sheet of a team interested. It means that the team would be paralyzed in cap space waiting, with the possibility of missing out on other available QBs.Ian Rapoport@RapSheetComplicating factor: If a team signs Lamar Jackson to an offer sheet, Baltimore has five days to match. That knocks that team essentially out of free agency and loses them the other available QBs -- because they are paralyzed in cap space just waiting. Not impossible.
