I love y'all. I appreciate y'all I went to sleep early last night because I thought I was feeling like a little bit sick Well, I thought I was telling my wife and I don't think I'm getting sick I think I'm just tired man. I'm tired because as y'all know my sleep schedule is all over the place It's all kinds of messed up So I took some night quill so I could get some good sleep because if I don't like take anything which I'd never do Then my sleep is like I'll go to sleep but then I always end up waking up like 3 4 in the morning and Sleep my sleep be just all messed up if I drink some tea or something that helps sometimes But a lot of times it just it won't even help But anyway, I did take the night quill last night and I got some good sleep But I woke up early and I was like, you know what I'm up early Let's just do some questions. Well, why not? But anyway, I love y'all now Of course Lamar Jackson Future was down here last night. Future was down here last night and I know DJ Khaled was a meek meal and a bunch of them city girls and whatnot and Lamar Jackson was there and I saw I saw some Ravens fans. They they saw Man, what's the name fat fat boy something the one who who I Ain't never seen a fat boy get on the roof like people from Florida will know what I'm talking about and who I'm talking about But it's this dude that dances to Florida music on the roof You got a shirt off big dude or whatnot, but he was there. I think it's fat boy snacks. I think that's his name but anyway He was there. He was next to Lamar Jackson and Lamar Had his Ravens chain on and I know every time any Ravens fans see Lamar with his Ravens chain on they start going crazy What happens when he takes it? Look, man, I know like a lot of us We want something to let it be known to to make it be known that Lamar Jackson is staying But look, I can't get hype off of no Instagram video where he holding his chain. It's a chain You know where is it? That's this chain so anyway, I Know a fat boy asked me if he asked Lamar Lamar was staying if oh no If Lamar was coming back and Lamar says something then Lamar was like it's happening something But to me I didn't I didn't really feel like Lamar's really answer. You know Lamar be trolling You know he'd be trolling but well, what are you gonna say? No? He gonna say oh no I ain't going back on the Instagram video and he know that the video is gonna get posted He know people are gonna check for it. You know people gonna see it like you ain't stupid, man Like hey Lamar you coming back? No, I ain't going back But anyway, I just thought it was funny He said draft an office sheet Indianapolis Wave Matt Ryan and traded Stefan Gilmore to clear plenty of cap space Now, I know they signed a Gardner men's shoe to a one-year three million deal Which I believe is as a backup QB If any nevelers was to make a move to give an office sheet to Lamar before the draft if you were GM Would you take their number four pic? Oh? You or if I was a GM now, I would have had Lamar locked up a long time ago If I was GM, but that's me anyway He said rarely has Baltimore had an opportunity with a draft pick that high because they never Tank where ADC would have the opportunity to trade back a few spots for an extra second round pick Then draft one of the top cornerbacks Gonzalez or from Oregon Oh with a spoon from Illinois and then at 22 take a receiver. Hopefully someone like Quentin Johnson from TCU JSN from Ohio State or flowers from BC or Jordan Addison from USC then in the second or third round Take a quarterback like hooker from Tennessee Stesson Bennett from Georgia. Look, let me tell you about Stesson Bennett It's like I feel like all Ravens fans should know he's going to the Ravens one way or another whether it's drafted undrafted Whatever, he's gonna make it way to the Ravens. It's happening. Like it just it's gonna happen So anyway, he said or dug in from TCU. What do you think take care and later? All right. What a way to get us started So No, I would not take it because again, I would have a lot locked up This thing would have been taken care of if I was GM but if they decide not to Lock them all up then I mean Yeah, but see the thing is safe instance coach were to sign him to an office sheet And Ravens didn't match just a scenario He would obviously go to the Colts Ravens will get the Colts first round pick this year in the first round pick next year as well Now, let me tell you if Lamar goes to the Colts that first round pick next year is gonna be a lot lower Still be a first round pick, but it'll be a way lower. But anyway, um With if the Ravens has a number four pick like you mentioned Yeah, they would have a high pick and they could trade back to still keep a first round pick and get some additional picks as well EDC would have to hit on those Ravens will have to hit on those picks Because in my opinion, there's nothing that's worth trading Lamar But if you end up trading Lamar your drafts better be perfect They have to be They have to be Perfect, you cannot miss on anything We talked about this before that with um, excuse me With even if they keep Lamar The the drafts they just need to be better need to be more impactful But especially if you decide, all right, somebody signed to office. She's not gonna match or if you decide to trade them away Those draft picks better be on point. You better hit on it. You better knock the draft way out the park past the park You better you got to knock it out because If you trade away Lamar, it's like, okay, what what you're gonna do now and it better be on point kick the season already Next question came from boy Rodeo. He said my guy glad to see you doing better This situation will not only work itself out, but bigger and better things are coming your way as well Now only if this other situation could work itself out I hope so I I really do hope so. Um, and yeah, we'll see in Well today the 18th, so we'll see in like five days We'll see five days and change or whatnot. It's depend on how long they take with that So we'll see man. I do. I obviously hoping for the best and um, We'll see how it goes and I'll of course let y'all know I said, so as you know, being a Ravens fan is truly weird. It's like going into a season uh going into a season They won't uh, you know, they won't hit rock bottom, but they won't be sky high either They were literally coast in the middle They may look like a below average team for half the season and they'll have the season top caliber But where I'm getting that is should we kick this upcoming season already Since our bingos playoffs has been absolute chaos like this feels like unfamiliar territory with all these abnormal headlines we are making. Yeah, it's crazy. It's been something and A lot of it hasn't been good Like even even yesterday Yesterday, um, I saw a video somebody recorded a screen recorded it from a twitter space I and and I sent it to my boy. Meach. I said man I say Ravens like I said even even the Ravens receptionists are struggling right now They even going through it because There were some bingos fans that prank called the ravens office the ravens echo all over mills they um And the and they he didn't when he called he was like he acted like he was a raven season ticket holder And he called the receptionist picked up She's like Baltimore Ravens or something like that and he was like hey, uh, he's like, do we have any word on Lamar has Lamar resign yet? And she was like we won't when when you hear something that's when we hear something We don't hear anything till you hear anything And he was like all my season ticket holder and it's just joking. There was nothing malicious anything like that But then he was like, um, when when they before before she even picked up though What what the saddest part was and I was like, whoa, hold up Something needs to be updated, baby But before she even picked up the the whole music the the um Not the whole music but the uh the automated message when they put you on hold It was uh mink talking about the upcoming playoff game against the Cincinnati Bengals And I said they really ain't update that from way back then that was over a month ago. That's like more than a half ago Hold up. That was in january. We we didn't we had to end the march. That was two months ago That was two months ago I said yikes, what's going on here? But um, anyway, she she was really really nice, uh really really nice receptionist But I said man, they they they gotta fix that. But anyway, um He said uh all these abnormal headlines. We are making jk publicly coming out Yeah, and and a running back being upset with a running scheme with a team that runs the ball You know, that's a problem then. Um, Bateman. Oh, yeah, baby Yeah, we gotta get to it Uh, Lamar with the direct indirect so tweets Yes, it's been a little bit of both Especially them direct was uh, not only does the locker room feel lost and is lacking a leader But the organization feels unbalanced and out of whack. Oh, yeah, because they going through it They going through it Anyway, he said edc saying one thing harps ain't another ozzy assuring another and bishadi out of sight Our division is no longer a guarantee to win in the afc as a whole just got a lot tougher Yeah And errod just one day any day now and rod just coming to town um So, yeah Patrick my home's obviously still there Josh Allen still there too. It could be healthy. He he gonna be there um, we uh, yeah, joe burrow obviously there The shine watson, um, he should be better this season So, yeah, ravens got yeah Anyway, um us barely making a wild card seed and losing his failure A divisional round playoff loss will be failure. Heck. I feel a afc championship loss would be failure So obviously I feel like it's super bowl or buzz. However, I don't feel like we are close to being that team Yeah, I I I can agree right now. Um The off season still got a while to go They could still obviously make some moves a lot could change between now and september is march It's march. It's six months left till wow hold up I'm chipping. Yeah. Yeah six months left. Um till september. Um, so It's early, but I know um, it's funny because every off season Uh, especially recently if ravens are slow to do something slow to make moves a lot of people say, oh, it's it's early It's early in the season Um, ravens look like they're struggling they they're struggling with a certain aspect of their game People will say it's it's early. It's early and I've said to myself too I'll be like it's early. There's no reason to trip yet. But then as it goes late into the season It ain't as early no more But anyway, um continuing he said the obvious downfall is our offense and the only cure that will make me change my mind Is a catastrophic fairy tale fix So right now it is technically still early. Um, but obviously so much is centered and the focus point is Lamar Jackson and and what's gonna happen with him Until the resolution is reached with that I I can't expect nothing to happen Can't expect no like significant moves to be made. I can't expect No catastrophic seismic moves to happen or anything like that. So i'm chilling too, man I mean and right now my expectations are low um, but it's like i'm So i'm chilling i'm chilling like, oh, hey ravens make a move raven do something here there. Okay, cool. Let's let's let's see Let's see so far. It's been like I don't want to say small moves have been made but it's been um They've been solid moves nothing too crazy like brought back just to see okay. I was cool with that Um brought back gino stars cool with that recent long snapper nick more. Okay, cool. No problem And oh, yeah, they uh brought back. Well brought back brought in uh, trayvon mullin. Okay depth corner back. Okay, cool So nothing crazy Not no expensive move. I know some people were tripping off the justice hill moved it like hey wire We don't even got our quarterback back and we resigning the backup running back while we're putting money into that It is a backup running back. It's also a special team. It's a gun. It's a return man. Um One of those all of the above type of things anyway, he said um The obvious downfall is our offense and the only cure that will make me change my mind is the catastrophic fairytale fix Which is trade for one of mike evans or nuke hopkins sign Odell beckham jr. Or adam feeling Oh and draft the wide receiver round one. Okay, so you see above Uh for me, I I would I would take out the adam feeling poor. I'm I don't know. I just If they signed them, all right cool. Whatever. I just I just Know I don't I don't know. It just wouldn't move me like that Maybe it's just me, but if they sign the adam feeling. Okay, cool I mean, he's better than a lot of what we have but that could not be it But but you're saying All three of these I like that thinking Uh, so he said trade for mike evans or de andre hopkins Plus signed odell beckham jr. Or adam feeling and draft the wide receiver round one See, he put and in all caps to make sure that I knew when I was reading this that that and the the commas The commas um, they make a list and the and it adds to that list So he wanted to make sure that he was listing all these things to happen not one or the other So I appreciate that he said that is what I call a wide receiver room makeover And while I would believe we would become a totally different threat A super bowl still isn't guaranteed I mean, we've seen mike mcdonald's up and downs in his rookie debut as a defensive coordinator a complete Leave rebuilt wide receiver room with a first year oc going to the super bowl seems unlikely as the team currently stands today March 17th It's not super bowl ready. Oh no. I yeah, I don't think anybody Thinks this team is super bowl ready right now. I don't think anybody realistically thinks that obviously we would hope it But I don't think anybody realistically thinks that this ravens team right now Is a super bowl team, but again There's still a lot of time it's time to change that so ravens have a lot of opportunity to change that So he said I'm almost 100% sure we will not make enough moves to ensure a super bowl caliber team Remember, we will absolutely compete. We will not contend. Oof So, um And again, we'll see We'll see we got to uh, wait it out and see how the remainder of this offseason goes next question came from my guy kimpachi He said lemar jackson's contract ain't great And I got a question that I like your opinion on now that this john watson has restructured his contract Do you think that will affect the dollar amount that lemar is asking for or maybe the ravens will use that as leverage to keep number crunching these offers um Do I think that'll affect the What lemar's asking for no I I don't um I don't Because lemar could still be like hey, I want this much guaranteed upfront Like straight up not injury guaranteed not if i'm on a roster on the third day of the league year in 2026 no not I want to guarantee straight up Straight up now, um granted. I was talking to my boy kev about this Uh, a couple days ago with uh, apparently what some of these contracts were that lemar jackson was offered He was more than likely to hit Some of the guarantees that were in them, but they weren't guaranteed from jump like there was some Like I think what was it 175 mil guaranteed for injury? It was something like that So i'm over here getting lend off the microphone in the middle of the video, but you know anyway, anyway, um I uh, I think that was one of them one of them was a guarantee if he was on the roster on I think the third day of the fifth day of the league year in Oh, you're in 2023 so three four five So yeah, I think in 2026 if he would be on a roster on a certain day of the league year Then another guarantee would kick in um, so Apparently, uh, it will still be those and like with those those are um They're not fully guarantees if you get what i'm saying. They're likely guarantees, but they're not fully Because I think we're fully it's like a this is what it is Regardless from jump. This is what it is. Now while those are likely guarantees that he most likely would get Like um, especially being on the roster on a certain day of the league year It's not fully guarantee Now I know it's been said. Oh, yeah, if ravens were to cut them then they would have a massive, uh They would have massive dead money and whatnot so that like most likely he would be there But still it's not fully guarantee It's most likely to get that guarantee, but it ain't fully. I I think that is what has been a big part of this whole hold up um But yeah, it's just it's it's been something we well a lot of us are learning we learning more and more every day About contracts man. I love it though. I appreciate I appreciate the uh the insight the knowledge because Everything that we're learning from this whole ordeal That'll help us in the future for for any other contracts that we may talk about Or if if somebody signs a deal, then we we can understand better How good or bad that deal is equipped when it comes to guaranteed money and da da da da So yeah, this this is a learning process for all of us So i'm appreciating this right and the last question came from my guy one g who's been a patron for six months So appreciate you on he said is there just a purple cloud over baltimore right now engraving just left and right I never read anything good lately. Ravens are broke means saying the ravens are signing nobody The same kind of offseason we've been experiencing the last few years just silent at the beginning with good players being released Whatever players are you signing? I wouldn't say over the past couple years. I mean remember last year Remember last year marcus williams that was big like and I was proud of the ravens for that because they signed An outside free agent going into his prime not coming out of his prime, but going into his prime They signed somebody on the outside of the front from the outside of ravens organization Going into his prime and I was just like wow, I can't believe this This is so not raven But I loved it um, and last last offseason with this recent para card that was like when they did that it was like Okay, jero's gonna be back and that same offense gonna be back morgan moses Who else did they bring I I can't remember who else on the top of my head, but anyway um They said the same kind of offseason we've been experiencing the last few years just silent at the beginning with good players being released Whatever players resigning not even really major signing just kind of getting the leftovers a free agency like what is going on I'm hoping I'm not jinxing it, but is the rebuild. Is it rebuild time in Baltimore? You're not jinxing anything because jinxing isn't real. So you ain't got to worry about that. Um, but then What's going on is again the limo hold the the limo contract. That's just that's the hold up right now. That's it That's that's the big hold up even though like Again, ravens don't ever go crazy in free agency that data. They don't do that regardless if limo was signed or not signed They don't ever go crazy in free agency Um, but that's what everything is like so much is waiting on um He said uh lose our quarterback No money to sign anyone and be in the quarterback market again and be forced to change the philosophy because it's apparent It's not working Oh, and we'll see how top monkey does on offense. We'll see how that that offense does for the ravens since 2012 It's declined. I had one major spike in 2019 and now kind of on the downslope again. I don't know man I'm worried give us some reassurance. Please. I feel like I'm speaking for the fan base because there definitely Is a blue feeling going around as we're watching everything unfold powerful message right there from my guy Juan Um, we don't know we don't know what it's gonna be. We don't know what's gonna happen We don't know what's gonna go down next. We're just waiting All of us are just waiting Just waiting to see what's next waiting for the next big announcement the next big domino to fall And it's a possibility that with the limo thing because again, that's obviously the biggest thing that we're waiting on It's a possibility that he Could play out on the tag That's real possible He could play out this season on the tag on a non-inclusive franchise tag um I don't anticipate him doing that. I don't think he would do that, but it's a possibility Uh, so it's just so much that we don't know Could the ravens going to rebuild mode? They could without obviously be if they traded them all away Um, which would be unfortunate, but it would be a reality. They would go into rebuild mode Start over at quarterback. Um, and whether they just decided to go roll with Tyler Hunley for this year And then next year they drafted somebody they really liked or if they were able to get somebody this year that they really liked Obviously, you know, you know, they've looked at all of that You know, they've looked at all the quarterbacks coming out this year and thought about all the possibilities and whatnot um So, let's see I mean the flag that I'm with y'all And great for lock you up and play football I'm a fanatic you see we got the magic and you and my boys are savages and open challenge It matters. Let's go Making rage quit exit out the door Use his favorite team with up all the more Don't get mad
