 How bad do things have to be in your franchise for you to be turned down by Baker Mayfield? Oh, that's got to be a tough feeling, right? Well, I know a lot of Ravens fans were probably thinking that initially when they heard that Baker may feel turned down the Baltimore Ravens But it is not all bad. It's really not because we got to look at it for exactly what it is because surface value You're like, oh, Baker may feel said no to the Ravens. What? Him he said that what really? But it's not as bad as it seems to keep it clean What's going on is even gravy here with another video and I love y'all make sure you subscribe to the channel Make sure to subscribe to the channel turn your notifications on so you don't miss anything because every single day is something new with these Baltimore Ravens, they will not let you get tired of hearing about them I've seen it be said yesterday like I remember Ravens fans years ago Man media never talking about us me media never saying anything about us. We ain't never on the news We ain't never on ESPN. We never on NFL Network. They always talking about all these other teams. They never talk about us. Well There you go They don't talk about nothing but the Ravens now. So hey got what you wanted. But anyway Article came out yesterday from Mike Florio profile talk that Baker may feel turned down the Baltimore Ravens And I remember when I first saw it. I just laughed I laughed because I was like wow We uh, okay, even though this offseason nothing is really surprised anymore and even with Baker may feel the Ravens Haven't been interested in Baker may feel that's not a surprise either because if we recall Jeff's Rebek The who is the best in the business? He put us on that before free agency started and we covered that in a video But Jeff's Rebek talked about how the Ravens could potentially be interested in Baker may feel he said that the Ravens They really liked him coming out of college and they have always really had a respect for Baker may feel throughout his NFL career Obviously, they were very familiar with him They played him two times a year when he was with the Browns and they've had a lot of love for him He even talked about how Steve Bashati who never does this But Steve Bashati said he walked over when the Panthers played the Ravens. He said he walked over the Baker may feel He gave him a big hug and maybe with that big hug He was like hey, I'm coming to get you. I'm coming to get you my friend But they totally don't even send a plane, but anyway The Ravens have liked Baker may feel and Jeff's Rebek He tried to let us know like a that interest it could be real They could be interested in signing Baker may feel this offseason. So then couple weeks later Jeremy Fowler he reported and this was early in free agency Jeremy Fowler reported that the Ravens they looked into quarterbacks like Jacoby Berset and Baker may feel but now This is a step further Because apparently the Ravens tried to sign Baker may feel but Baker may feel said no Thanks, and with that being said, I know it looks really bad. It looks really rough like They really try to sign Baker may feel like what what does that mean about Lamar Jackson? What what are you trying to sign him instead of Lamar? Well, hold on Because for them to make a contract offer it would have had to have been When the free agency start around like March 14th or 15th The Ravens place the franchise tag on Lamar Jackson on March 7th, so a week before free agency started So they they had their quarterback and this could mean a couple of things It could have been them trying to sign Baker may feel as a backup Then really trying to upgrade their backup quarterback because a stay ready. So you ain't got to get ready, right? Lamar missed time last year. He missed time the previous year and it's like a if Lamar ends up missing time we want to have a pretty good backup quarterback ready and Maybe they wanted to upgrade from Tyler Huntley Because this was before they placed the top the tender on Tyler Huntley So maybe they want to be like, you know what this guy's a former number one overall pick We really like this game coming out and if he could be our backup quarterback Oh, that'll put us in some nice shape Or It could have been it could have been it's a possibility. I think it's more so for the backup, but We never never know Could also open for started to and it could have been one of those things to where the Ravens were trying to sign Baker may feel sort of as a What's the word? I'm looking for like an insurance policy like a just in case Just in case like I if we keep Lamar a Baker We got you. You'll be all backup quarterback. We got our backup quarterback set Lamar Jackson's a starter Baker may feels a backup All right, let's go Number one overall draft pick and number 32 perfect. All right, let's get it or If things don't work out with Lamar if things go south with Lamar Then hey Baker may feel you'll be all one and maybe maybe we could tend to Tyler Huntley He can be our two this year and maybe we could draft the quarterback and that'll be our three I don't know We don't know But we would have to assume well, I would have to assume that it would be as a backup. I mean maybe What was the contract offer? What was the type of deal that he was all for that? We don't know they they don't have the they didn't say the details on that part, but Because that would tell a lot of the story too that could help tell a lot of the story Another option Baker may feel could have been sort of a bridge quarterback And I mean that would be sort of be the same as being that insurance policy Because if he was a bridge quarterback that could mean that they he would be the bridge from from Lamar Jackson to whatever the Ravens are Gonna do next at the quarterback position but Again when the news came out that they tried to sign them, but Baker may feel turned them down I had to really think about it. I was like, oh wait a minute It's not as bad as it looks even though it does look bad. It's not as bad as it looks You put yourself in Baker may feel shoes Then I know some of y'all don't even want to wear Baker may feel shoes But anyway, you put yourself in Baker may feel shoes number one overall pick Got drafted by Cleveland A lot of ups and downs over there Obviously more downs and ups cuz Cleveland was like old Sean Watson. Okay Baker. Bye. See you And remember to just a little side note because you see everything happening with Lamar Jackson right now remember The Browns they draft the Baker may feel they had him on there for a couple years and whatnot, but as soon as the Sean Watson came available as Soon as they were ready to move on from Baker may field You started to hear coincidentally You start to hear all these stories come out about Baker may feels immature Baker may feels not a good leader Baker may feel this Baker may feel that as Soon as soon as the Sean Watson came available and it was noted that the Browns were interested in him You start to hear all these bad stories start to come out about Baker may feel Coincidence And now you see what's going on with Lamar. Hey, it's money time and this hat this this really started last year too When Lamar eligible they start talking contract and stuff You start to see all these stories come out of nowhere because before the first couple years. Oh, man, you don't hear nothing bad about Lamar nothing But now you start to hear all this No coincidence. Hey, who knows buddy. I don't know but anyway Um So they they they got rid of Baker may feel Baker may feel that he got traded He got traded to the Panthers and the Panthers they got rid of him. He got picked up by the Rams Rams got well his contract ran out and expired. He became a free agent If you're Baker may feel you put yourself in his shoes You look at the Raven situation like Okay, they franchise tag Lamar I know they like Tyler Huntley too What's gonna go on over there? What's happening over there because Lamar Lamar still there Yeah, I don't know if he's gonna be there or not. He may leave. He may stay. I don't know But Lamar still there Me I'm a quarterback I've started in this I've been starting Pretty much for my entire career for the majority of not my entire career because it took him a little bit to To get started in the Browns with the Browns and then with the Panthers. It was up and down So but for the majority of his career. He's been a starter Why would I go to the Baltimore Ravens? When there's potential there's potential that I could end up being a backup I don't want to be no backup. I'm I'm still trying to keep my career alive So if I'm Baker may feel I'm like, no, I'm not going there. I don't want to go there Because it's not a sure thing. It's not a guarantee Again, not a virtual guarantee, but it's not a full guarantee It's not a full guarantee that I end up being the Baltimore Raven starter Because it could be Lamar So I don't blame Baker may feel for turning down the Baltimore Ravens And that's why this him turning it turning the Ravens down It's not nearly as bad as it looks And even the Ravens trying to sound Baker may feel Okay I ain't got no problem with that as long as this will back up roll, but I ain't no problem with that man. I'm okay cool They try to sign them and obviously ain't work out Baker may feels like, uh, no, they're okay cool Ravens they trying they trying to upgrade trying to upgrade a little bit everywhere But I mean it it is what it is. So on both sides. I don't really think it's a big deal Um, and I think it's just them just really trying to be prepared Them trying to be prepared, uh, just in case Lamar was a starter and he went down and he missed some time Or they just trying to be prepared if they were to move off from Lamar And they wanted somebody who they may have felt was Safe as a bridge As your as your guy moving forward. No No, but as a bridge guy to just help you get to whoever's next Okay, whatever Not ever So, yeah, that's that. So I ain't chipping off of it. It's Baker mayfield. I mean, I know a lot Let me see what oh my god, let's what my god Quincy said, man My god Quincy Quincy carrier who y'all y'all already know he is the ultimate Browns fan. Um Let me see if I can find it He said uh, because he had quote tweeted the report that the Ravens tried to sign Baker mayfield But he declined he said you either die the Ravens or lives long enough to see yourself become the Browns again And I said, oh Why you had to do us like that, man? But anyway, thank you for playing. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all And like Baker mayfield told the Baltimore Ravens when they gave him that contract offer He said I'm out
