 So there are three things that are guaranteed to happen in life one It's always gonna be annoying to have to wake up early in the morning two You're gonna have to pay taxes and three when Ravens wants some money They're gonna go straight to Brandon Williams contract So YouTube team keep it clean. What's going on? Happy Purple Friday It's been a long time since we said that it feels like it's been years since we said that but it's only been like six Seven months, but anyway, happy Friday. Hope y'all are doing good. Hey, shout out to all of y'all that checked out the podcast man The the link to the podcast on anchor on Spotify and on YouTube is down below in the description So I know some people say oh, I don't have anchor I don't have Spotify you can still listen on either one But you can also listen to it on YouTube now because I have the YouTube channel for it That's gonna have all the episodes up on there as well. So make sure you subscribe to that But anyway The Ravens they they reworked Brandon Williams contract yet again So we're gonna talk about exactly what this means. Let's let's see the tweet straight from field Yates He said the Ravens and defensive tackle Brandon Williams recently agreed to a reworked contract That includes 8.25 mil guaranteed with a base value of 15.75 mil over the next two years Previously he was do 19 mil over the next two years with no guarantees Baltimore gains three mil and cap space for the in the move So His his contract became guaranteed It says 8.25 mil guaranteed with a base value of 15.75 mil over the next two years. So what does this mean? they have reworked his contract yet again and Contrast contrary to what I thought and what I thought was gonna go down this offseason a lot of other people too Brandon Williams ain't going anywhere He's not going anywhere. That's what happens when you rework contracts when you redo contracts Especially Brandon Williams contract because I like I said earlier man every time man It seems like it happens if not every year than every two years They always rework in Brandon Williams contracts some of the contracts. They would always go to will be Brandon Williams and Jimmy Smith Because they signed them to they had signed Jimmy Smith to that four year 40 million dollar deal They used to always rework it too, but Brandon Williams over everybody They would go straight to him first, but this this says that he isn't going anywhere Now I'm not sure if it's in a question from subscriber video that we're gonna be putting out today Or a question from subscriber video that we put out yesterday But we talked about Brandon Williams and how we expected the Ravens to move on from Brandon Williams Not because he's a bad player at all because he's a really good player is great at what he does but simply because I just felt like due to the salary and Then wanting to get more versatile on the defensive line I thought they will move on from Brandon Williams, but this lets us know. Ah, nope ain't happening But another thing that it lets us know because you don't just do these moves for nothing You don't just create three million cap space for nothing. I And my personal opinion Could be wrong. We'll see Because the Ravens they currently have think they have about 12 million salary cap space But once Earl Thomas files his grievance, they're gonna only have seven million again So if this creates three meals, so they'll have about they should have about 10 million cap space after this move It tells me that they are looking to bring somebody in That's what it's saying to me could be wrong, but I don't think they usually carry about five meal throughout the season for insurance money for just in case money But it seems to me as if either they're gonna bring somebody in or they are going to be Extending somebody's contract coming up very very very very very soon and If I had to guess as far as who they're bringing in no clue don't know But as far as whose contract they could possibly extend Ronnie Stanley That would be a candidate I would I would that would be my first guess It could be No, yeah, I don't really think it would be anybody else. I think it would be just Ronnie Stanley could be somebody else You know Ravens, but they'll pull something out of a hat They'll do some crazy surprise. Well, it's like oh, I didn't see that coming. Oh, I didn't know they were gonna do that Happens every time and Ravens always doing some they always up to some sneaky stuff always man, but I Don't know how it's gonna end up man. I don't know who it's gonna be I I don't know what they're gonna do But them clearing up this cap space does indicate that they have a move that they want to make Whether it's extending their own or bringing in somebody else to become one of their own now if if they were bringing in somebody One of the positions some of the positions that I could see it happening yet Would be past rush Because obviously with the whole Jadavion Clowney thing, you know, obviously with the whole Yannick and Godway thing I could see it there Now what options are out there because I really don't think Clay Matthews is gonna be it Because I know a lot of people have talked about hey Maybe they should bring in Clay Matthews bring in Clay Matthews and the whole story came out yesterday First Adam Schefter said that Clay Matthews said he wasn't gonna play this year and Clay Matthews quote tweeted Adam Schefter He shut all that down. No, I didn't say that I never said that my agent never said that we ain't say that I Said that I'm not playing for the Broncos because we try to come to an agreement couldn't come to an agreement I'm not gonna play for them never said I wasn't gonna play So I was like, okay, okay Clay Clay. I see you man But I don't think it's gonna be Clay Matthews There's been some talk about Ziggy answer. I um, I Don't think it's gonna be him either. I really do believe because and and I Really do believe that if Ravens get a pass Russia, it will be via trade And the reason I say I don't think it'll be a free agent is because they haven't signed one yet Now one of the reasons and shout out to my god Mike B Because he had actually showed me something that it made a lot of sense that one agent said I forgot what her name was, but she's an agent for some different players in the NFL and She's talked about why some of your favorite players are still free agents And it's something that we knew and and we've talked about a little bit on here But it was nice to have that reminder and she mentioned how the NFL has termination pay But with termination pay for veterans If they got Terminated and and they were on a on a week one roster then you would have to pay them termination pay But if you sign somebody after week one They said the salary for the entire season is not guaranteed and you don't have to pay them any termination pay So that means if you sign somebody after week one they come on your roster and they like on a week-to-week basis And you ain't got to worry about pay if you cut them. That's it. You're done No guarantees none of that you're done. So she said that she expects a lot of activity And after weeks one During like weeks two and three she expects a lot of people to get picked up and whatnot, but see with that This is why I don't think the Ravens are necessarily gonna be part of a big free agent pickup because They wouldn't need much salary cap space to pick up a free agent after week one because the salary is not guaranteed So that's why I say if if they are getting a pass rusher then I would think that it would be via trade Because they again, they always show and I know a lot of people got frustrated Which I can understand but that that these trades didn't go through but at the same time You got a you got to love it that Eric the cost is always trying always trying Always this guy doesn't stop We love it and a lot of people they liken it to what people playing Madden People trying to build Madden rosters. That's what the cost of does That's what he's done and it's tenor as a GM That's what he's been trying to make Madden rosters because he's trying to get this guy and that guy and that guy and that guy He's always trying for something So you got to give him credit for that got to give the front office credit for that they keep on trying But who they gonna try for next We'll see if I had to lean to one side I Would I would say they would be trying to keep one of their own and just do a big extension so they the extension may be one of them extensions that It takes up it takes a little nice little chunk of change right now And that's why they just try to create a little bit more salary cap space So I would I would think it would be Ronnie Stanley I would think it'd be it would be him because I think maybe Maybe the reason I think it could be Ronnie Stanley would be because they may have watched the game last night It's all that Texans offensive line and they'll probably watch and learn me tonsil and they're like he's good but Ronnie Stanley you better and We don't want Lamar to be looking like the Sean Watson was looking last night. Oh, that was rough. Oh big yikes That was so rough So if I had to lean to one side I would think that they would be getting ready to extend Ronnie Stanley But we should know very soon since the Ravens made this move. So they're gonna have the counter move Soon enough. Anyway teamkeeper clean appreciate y'all. I love y'all so much.
