29. Lamar Jackson
Jackson had a phenomenal 2019 winning the NFL MVP. He broke Michael Vick’s record for most rushing yards by a quarterback as he brought the Ravens to the next level. It appeared as though they had a franchise QB for the next decade (via CBS Sports).

But the NFL is a tricky business because money talks. DeShaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes signed mega-money contracts with the Browns and Chiefs respectively. Jackson saw this and kept his cards close to the vest. It put Baltimore in a precarious position because they had to pay or lose their star.
