 Is my camera looking blurry right now? It seemed like it's like, I don't know, it's looking kinda foggy to me. I hope I ain't nothing wrong with it. Or maybe it's just a smoke screen. YouTube, team keep it clean. What's going on? It's Aang Raven here with another video and these Ravens, boy, they do it again. They do it again. Ravens with them smoke screens, they are so good at it too. They are so good at it. They went and brought in, we didn't get no report that Ravens were interested in Jason Pierre Park. They actually brought him in for a visit. Brought him in for a visit. He over there doing an Instagram story from the locker room and whatnot. Oh yeah, good vibes. I love the vibes in here. Oh, it's all vibes. Okay, cool. Oh yeah. And they end up hitting us with that swerve and signing Steven Means. And Steven Means is funny because this off season, the Ravens have been in ultimate, what's up big head mode? Because the Ravens, they just, they want that old thing back. They really do. The Ravens, they tried to bring back Zadaria Smith. We know what happened with them. Ooh, yikes. The Ravens, they brought back Tony Jefferson again, who they had ended up bringing him back last year. They were like, you know what? Bringing you back was so nice. We want to do it twice. Come on back. They re-signed Geno Stone, who they had originally drafted. Then they cut him and then he went to the Texans. Then they signed him back and now they re-signed him again. Now, and they also brought back Brent Urban. Brent Urban, who was last with the team, I want to say in 2017 or 2018, one of those two, but they brought him back again. They brought back Michael Pierce, who was last with the team in 2018 They bringing all these boys back, man. They like, hey, y'all got away the first time. Y'all ain't getting away again, man. So Ravens, they clearly, and then Josh Bynes, I mean, they done brought this dude back like 50, 60 times already. So Ravens are clearly in what's up big head mode this off season. And then when you think about the draft coupled with free agency and moves at the Ravens, both have and have not made, it's looking like they sent a text to 2019 to that offense saying, hey, what's up big head? We trying to get back with you. So we'll see how things end up working out though. We'll see how it plays out. But anyway, Steven means, you know what? I really thought when I first saw that the Ravens signed Steven means, I wonder if it's just me or maybe I must be confusing him with somebody else. Cause I was like a thousand percent sure that he was on the Bucks most recent Super Bowl team. I really thought he was. So I looked up the teams that he played for, besides the Baltimore Ravens, cause you know, he played for them. But I looked up the teams that he played for, he got drafted in the fifth round in 2013 by the Bucks. So he played for the Bucks for a couple of years, of course the Ravens, he played for the Houston Texans for a little bit, the Eagles, and also the Falcons. Well, his most recent team from 2018 up until last year. So I'm sure for him, just being in the locker room with a winning culture, he just, he's a breath of fresh air. He probably love that land now, but he was like, ah, yeah, oh y'all went over here? Okay, in the playoffs, gotta get some stuff adjusted. But oh, y'all be doing a lot of window. Okay, that's cool, I'm with it. But Steven means outside linebacker slash DN, and somebody that you would expect, especially definitely for training camp, but he takes the place of Mr. Derek Wolf. And it's funny because y'all know that this whole off season, I've been like, hey, I do not see Derek Wolf being a Baltimore Raven in 2022. Don't see him being on the team. I thought they were going to cut him. They're going to cut him, release him, get rid of him, whatever. And then they signed Brent Urban. When they signed Brent Urban, I was like, oh, well, I guess that's a wrap, y'all. Guess Derek Wolf time coming to an end sooner rather than later. And then they brought in Jason Pierre-Paul-Fort, and it was like, oh, oh yeah. Then Derek Wolf, he talked about the hip surgery and what it was like, oh, bingo. There we go. And then they ended up releasing him with the injury settlement. So we haven't found out how much that is yet. That still don't know. But Stephen means he ends up taking his place. Well, taking his roster spot, excuse me, not necessarily his place, but his roster spot. The Ravens, they certainly, again, like we talked about in the previous video today, they have a lot of depth in so many areas. A lot of depth. And what depth does, what quality depth does is it brings out competition because you got 90 men on the roster right now. 90 men ain't making the squad. You can only keep either, what is it, 53 or 55? One of those two. I forget what, I know it before it was 53, but I think that it changed, but I'm not 1,000% sure. But either way, there's only a select number of roster spots. So when you bring in guys, when you bring in guys for competition at different spots, it can only make everybody who's on a team currently better. Because people, especially at spots, where it's a lot of depth. And again, Ravens have a lot of depth in a lot of different places, except for receiver. But with this, it adds another D into the mix, another outside linebacker to the mix. And now I wonder, because we got a couple of weeks left to see with Justin Houston and his situation, there's a lot of pressure on, ooh, you know what? I didn't even think about that. Maybe they go on a different, and maybe they go another route. What I was gonna say is with Justin Houston, because I would expect him to be back. Now Ravens, they can rescind that unrestricted free agent tender that they offered to Justin Houston, or that they assigned to Justin Houston. They can take it back and be like, nevermind, you're a free agent. But the way that it works is that if he doesn't get signed by another team by the beginning of the training camp, or like July 22nd, whatever date it is, then he will come back to the Ravens. So with that being said, I was gonna say, I wonder how they gonna work out the roster spot when he comes back. Because Stephen Means is somebody that's in that same spot, like the edge position, outside linebacker Dianne and whatnot. You got Jaylen Ferguson there. You got Brent Urban with Brent Urban just Dianne. No outside linebacker about Brent Urban at all. But he's more Dianne. So who else you got? Man, yeah, so you got Stephen Means, Brent Urban, Jaylen Ferguson, Kaleis Campbell kind of, Kaleis Campbell, you could like move him around some different spots. So you got some options there, but my point is you have, oh, you got Malik Harrison. They said they're gonna try him out at the end. Oh, I'm tripping. Adolfi away, Adolfi away. Man, I'm, oh, I'm tripping. Wow, Tyus Bowser, wow, I'm tripping. Wow, they for the job eventually. Again, leave a little red shirt right now because it is a Kaleis, but okay. So, you know, sometimes some stuff take a little bit longer to get clicking with me. So you have a lot of guys there right now. You add Justin Houston back to the mix, it gets just, the pot gets that much thicker when it comes to your depth. So I just wonder like if, I wonder if he would be like sort of a placeholder till Justin Houston comes back and then they be like, okay, Justin Houston's back. All right, we're gonna release you. Cause it happens all the time. And I feel it's a cold, cold business, man. Cold business. But what I was gonna say is that it, this could be, it could literally be a placeholder type of thing. They could be wanting to know where you staying ready so we ain't gotta get ready, just in case. Because he won't even have any time. Say for instance, this happens if Justin Houston comes back and they cut it, Steven means he won't have, he will not have had any time to even prove himself because Justin Houston, he will be back by the start of training camp. First day of training camp, that's like the latest that he will be back by. So that spot, like his spot, you know his spot is good. Justin Houston's spot is good. As long as he's, they still have that tender issue to him. His spot is safe. But with nothing happening over the next couple of weeks, like the only thing they got is the rookie mini camp coming up soon or whatever. But that's it. The veterans are off. They're off. So he won't even get to show them what he got in practice. He won't even get to show them like, hey, I'm like this, I could do this, I could do that. And even if it's not Steven means, if it's somebody else, once Justin Houston comes, if he comes back, it's not set in stone, but I mean, you feel like it is, but if Justin Houston comes back, whoever roster spot he takes, they will have already, OTAs was it. OTAs and mini camp was it for them. So I just felt like that was interesting. Sorry about the little, well, I ain't sorry about the rant. I ain't sorry about that. But you're just thinking out loud. So we'll see what happens with that. But from what I saw from Steven means, I did watch a little bit of him on Why It Up from the Falcons. I think it was called Why It Up. And he just seemed like a real high energy guy, high energy teammate, a vocal leader. Somebody that's just, it just has a lot of fun. And that's what I saw when I watched that video. Somebody that has a whole lot of fun. So the Ravens, they could certainly, I mean, you can't get enough of those people in the locker room, especially this year. Like Ravens last year, you know them boys was not having fun with all the injuries to him. With all them injuries and all them close losses. Oh yeah, they wasn't having fun like that, man. They really wasn't. But so we'll see what happens. I'm really naive to his game. Do remember his name, but naive to his game. So I really honestly couldn't tell you about him in that aspect. But from the business side or from the roster side, again, it's depth. It's depth. Straight up depth. But it's depth for special teams, depth for defense, depth for defensive end, depth for outside line, it's depth. So again, last year, last year was a very nice lesson when it comes to depth. So anyway, love y'all team keeping clean. Appreciate y'all. Shout out to Steven Means for making, well, yeah, for making the team. Cause they had him in for tryouts yesterday. Either yesterday or the day before yesterday. I think it was yesterday though. Cause it was him and I think two other guys that they had in for tryouts. But hey, he ended up trying out and he got the job. So he put in his application and the Ravens were like, you're hired. Oof, I done put in a lot of applications in the past and I don't got a lot of your hires, but I think I got way more. Yeah, we're going to go in a different direction. But that's a whole nother story for another day. Team keeping clean. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all. And just like somebody's roster spot will be when Justin Houston gets back, who that is. I don't know, but just like they will be when Houston comes back, I'm out.
