 And just like that the Baltimore Ravens have officially started their 2024 season because this is I believe they're very first signing right? This the first guy that they are bringing in or in this case bringing back that being Nelson Aguilore big news out of Baltimore, buddy The Ravens have signed Nelson Aguilore to a one-year contract extension Nelson Aguilore among with a few others It was Nelson Aguilore Gus Edwards Kevin Zeitler and there's a couple other people whose contracts they have these specially designed contracts that are set to expire Tomorrow at 4 p.m. Eastern time and if they had not been re-signed Extended whatever you want to call it then they would be free agents So Nelson Aguilore avoids being a free agent because now he's back with the Baltimore Ravens And I know there's not many things that all Baltimore Ravens fans agree on and I know this is not gonna be one of them But I'm pretty sure that the majority of Ravens fans can all agree the majority not everybody But the majority can all agree that this is a good move for the Baltimore Ravens And I'm gonna talk about why and just a little bit before we get into it Make sure you subscribe to the YouTube channel turn your notifications on team.

I remember last year Last year when we first signed Nelson Aguilera because he I think he was the first signing for the Baltimore Ravens last office He's in two. So that's Aguilera said it's so nice. I'm gonna do it twice But Nelson Aguilera when the Ravens first signed him last year. I remember thinking like who Yeah, all right, this is okay Is this gonna be it is it just gonna be now no no well I ain't call him Nellie yet I ain't call him Nellie back then because they ain't call him Nellie ain't had no nickname from the Ravens back then So it wasn't on Nellie. It was Nelson Nelson Aguilera But I was thinking is this gonna be it a lot of us were thinking is this gonna be it because that's normally how the Ravens would operate But he wasn't it but he proved to be worth it now When you look at his numbers you look at the nut 35 catches 381 yards average 10.9 yards a catch had four touchdowns You'd look at that and like Okay, that that production can easily be replaced you could find that somewhere else But with Nelson Aguilera goes beyond that because you got to have you got to put that into context Nelson Aguilera was not the number one receiver was not the number one target He was not the number two receiver was not the number two target It was not the number three receiver was not the number three target Nelson Aguilera was like say like three four Because you had as far as targets and receivers just mix it all in there. You got say flowers You had Mark Andrews for a little bit You had Isaiah likely in the second half of the season. He's just going crazy with it Bateman was in there a bit. Oh, they'll beckham junior when he would be healthy. He'll be in there a bit but um Nelson Aguilera was behind a lot of people but When he did get his opportunities for the most part, uh, he did his thing He was somebody for the most part who um, he made the catches he made the plays And he's just somebody that is extremely unselfish You would think somebody that first round draft pick First round draft pick they first round pick Odell first round pick Bateman first round pick Nelly a first round all these first round picks we had at the receiver position But you could easily think that a first round pick that they would be selfish Because I mean hey, I was drafted in the first round. I belong here. I deserve this and they do of course But you could think that that Attitude would be displayed on the field and especially at the wide receiver position because their job is to catch passes Like why wouldn't it be displayed? It's not necessarily a bad thing that they it's not a bad thing at all that they want to vote But with Nelson Aguilera, you never heard Oh, I was saying here and heard at the same time, but you never heard or hear of him complaining at all You never hear of him being a bad teammate You never see him grumpy on the sidelines anything like that You you you would never see anything like that from a Nelson Aguilera And one of my favorite moments from this season When Nelson Aguilera, it came uh in the game against the Rams Are they playing the Rams and that game of course was it was insane? But Baltimore Ravens, they needed a touchdown to get back in the game very into the game very into regulation I mean needed a touchdown and Nelson Aguilera, he saw talked to Lamar He saw play while it was happening because I mean he's out there on the field Uh, and he came back to Lamar. He's like look I'm gonna run this route And I'm now, you know receivers they like hey, I'm open every play. Give me the ball feed me But he told Lamar like look I'm gonna run this route And I'm gonna clear out the safety so that'll open it up for say flowers And they did just that they executed it to perfection Touchdown and that that game was just amazing. Y'all already know But um Stuff like that and I'm sure there was more stuff like that that happened that we don't know about Um, but stuff like that it stands out to me a lot because it just shows Unselfish play it shows that Nelson Aguilera was like look I I want my catches. I want my pass of course because they didn't receive a wood But I want to win. I do. I want to do what's best for the team Um, but then when his number is called he still will make some stuff happen as well So this is a real nice move for the Baltimore Ravens Now I have seen a lot of discourse from Ravens fans And I've seen a lot of Ravens fans saying that they feel like this means that odell beckham junior is out of there and I Disagree to an extent and never to explain that what I mean when I say that is that I do think odell beckham junior could be out of there But not because of this This move this extension with nelson aguilera. This is not going to break the bank This is not going to demand so much money from the Baltimore Ravens and so much cap from the Baltimore Ravens that they just can't do anything else Even at the wide receiver position. No nelson aguilera is a solid receiver He could come in and contribute and come do his thing He could help out here and then in some different ways But nelson aguilera. This signing is not going to stop you from doing anything Now it's a lot of pending stuff right now with the Baltimore Ravens and the receiver position because Gotta figure out the whole thing with ze flowers We'll see what happens with that still waiting on more news with that And I'm sure in the coming weeks. We'll continue to hear more and more. So we'll see Devin Duvenay believe he is getting ready to be a free agent. See what happens with that Rashal Bateman while he's under contract for at least another year Ravens got to make the decision if they're going to pick up his fifth year option or not So we'll see what happens with that and then of course for odell beckham junior. They um Yeah, we'll see what what goes down with him whether they decide because they did sign him to that contract They redid his contract. That's what it was. They reworked his contract. So They will either sign him to an extension or they will cut him and then just split up the dead money. However But yeah, so ravens got some different question marks at the wide receiver position right now But this is the answer to one of those questions with nelson aguilera Um, so yeah, we'll see we we will see because there's a lot there right now We just really don't know about but assuming that Going into next year. It will be ze flowers. It will be rasha bateman It will be nelson aguilera and it will be tylin wallace um At the top that's a I feel like it's a top heavy Uh receiver unit, uh, but they could still use a little more a little more. Um, just like one more guy And of course, you still got a ze likely you still got mark andrews You can't forget about those guys, but they could still use just a bit more. They ain't got to be nothing crazy I mean if they want to do something crazy, you know problem, but already, you know, we don't mind but They could use a bit more, but um Yeah, man, this is a a good move for the baltimore ravens because nelson aguilera, he brings Consistency, I know a big thing with a lot of people with all the drops to drops to drops He was known for the drops and yeah, he was known for the drops and he did have some drops with the baltimore ravens He certainly did But not that this excuses or anything, but every single receiver that the baltimore ravens got had drops All of them. Yeah, this Ze flowers, he had plenty drops, but he he got the most opportunities out of all of them He was touching that ball all the time um Odell Beckham jr. Well, he had a few I think he had maybe one actually Yeah, I think he only had one He really dropped the ball I mean he really made that many catches because he wasn't really healthy all year But and and then you think about that just to speak about Odell Beckham jr. Real quick because again I know a lot of people are saying that they think that this means that Odell Beckham jr. Is going to be going I just To me, I don't see the correlation Even if they didn't resign nelson aguilera whether they did or they didn't I just don't think it has anything to do with Odell Beckham jr. I think if Odell Beckham jr. He's gonna stay he's gonna say if you're gonna go He's gonna go and I think that's regardless of whether nelly was here or not Um, I would lean more towards them probably letting him go Oh, it's so tough though, man, because with Odell like money wise That money would have to come way down like whoa 15 mil for Love Odell load of vibes load of dancers and all that he did the fuck I said, okay, shout out to Odell Beckham jr. But 15 mil base for I I just don't think the the salary matched and I know leadership and I and I get that I really do um But and and he had some moments, but with Odell He was just hurt man He was hurt and but my concern though with Odell I really like Odell Beckham jr. But my concern with him moving forward my concern is same concern It was last year too, but my concern moving forward will be all right Odell Beckham jr. Was never healthy this season. He was never healthy Is he ever going to be healthy? Because the reason to me that that's such a biggest concern is because from his rookie year He missed a significant amount of time still broke all them records, but he missed a significant amount of time And like I think like every just about every season. He's been he's dealt with a he's dealt with injuries Throughout the entirety of his professional career He has dealt with injuries the whole time So as an older receiver now as somebody who was literally hurt the entire year last year He still came in and did this thing here and there but as somebody who was hurt the entire year last year What should we expect from him moving forward? So but if the Baltimore Ravens are gonna keep Odell Beckham jr. All right cool But I think it will be wise for them to keep him at a much lower Rate and much lower price tag Um, or if they're gonna move on and be like, you know what we're gonna go in a different direction I I wouldn't be mad at that either with Odell Beckham jr. I'm like at a at a weird point because again if they keep him All right cool lower price if they let him go. Okay. I I understand either a decision that they make Either decision that they make because I know what he brings to the team what he brings to the city really Um, so if Odell Beckham jr. Gonna stay all right cool But I know you're definitely gonna want to get more production out of him than you got this year Um, and and not even just about the numbers just really about just being out there too Because he missed like when he would he would be in the game. He'll make a catch and then two minutes later Boom, he's going for the rest of the game You do it again his next game. Oh, he made a play. He made a couple plays. Oh, boom. He's out for the rest of the game We don't see him no more So again, it just I don't know man, so we'll see But we're not snagging lower Good stuff good stuff the receiver. He's healthy. He's healthy. He ain't got no health concerns or anything like that Um, got some good speed the hands are decent too. So, uh Yeah, man, and he obviously got a connection with this team and I guess he he believed in them enough He's like, hey, we got right there Let me stay with this team to see if I can help them get over the hump
