 Just feel like we got to sit down and have this conversation YouTube team. Keep it clean What's going on? It's engraving here with another video before we get into this video Thank you for 38k. Thank you for 38,000 subscribers and that's crazy And I actually have to check on the team keep it clean podcast channel to see where we yet now to see if We hit a thousand subscribers yet. I don't think so, but I'm gonna check that in a little bit, but anyway Let's just jump straight into it. So We've talked about it extensively on here because just like the JJ watt move It's not a move that I wouldn't necessarily want But it's such a Ravens move if it happened the JJ watt move I feel like when I watch JJ watt this year, he was very tired He just he obviously isn't the same JJ watt that he used to be and with age that stuff happens I'm not the same person. I used to be but I actually feel like right now. I'm like I'm almost in my prime But anyway, um JJ watt he isn't the same person that he he's not the same player that he used to be and then especially when you got Your little brother out here showing out for the past couple years then that that makes it look even worse but anyway, I Feel like with the Ravens that is such a Ravens move and If they were to acquire one JJ watt I Would have mixed feelings about it because right now. I mean At defensive end past Russia outside linebacker is very empty right now Well, not officially because we got away till the new league year starts But we have a lot of pending free agents Derek Wolf Tyus Bowser Pranel McPhee mad judon you they can got quay So, yeah, they're gonna have to do some stuff at outside linebacker edge rusher past Russia defensive end all of that So that'll take care of yourself But another name that it's been buzzing a lot when it comes to the Ravens is AJ green AJ green now, of course Ravens They have so many questions at wide receiver every single year every single season. It's always questions at wide receive What are you gonna do a wide receiver? Who do they need to sign a wide receiver? Who are they gonna draft their wide receiver? What do the Ravens need a wide receiver this year? It's always a question and AJ green Some people feel like The Ravens will answer the question by signing him possibly even being interested in him and There's of course been the rumors flying around about Ravens gonna be interested in AJ green blah blah blah if those rumors are true Who knows? But at the same time I was about to say who cares, but I do remember a couple years ago there were a lot of rumors flying around that the Ravens are going to be interested in Mark Ingram and Yeah, but anyway AJ green let's talk about the goods and the bats So with AJ green the goods he is a receipt. I mean he's a Ravens killer. He's a Ravens killer We Ravens fans, we know all about AJ green and everything that he can do and has done to the Ravens And over the past couple years. No, but in past history. Yes So AJ green what would we get if we got AJ green? Well, we would have that that potential extra motivation Because we know that the Bengals they're not gonna franchise tag him again We know we know they're not gonna do that. They got the cat the salary cap for it But they're not gonna even waste the time doing that for what why nobody's gonna trade to acquire AJ green So franchise tagging him will be pointless. You're not getting ready to sign him to a long-term deal So that will be pointless the Bengals have already shown throughout last season that they're ready to move on They're done with AJ green and he Show Especially in And really in both games against the Ravens last year. He showed in those games that he was done with the Bengals too So it's a two-way street. It's a mutual decision. But with AJ green, so he's gonna be a free agent Now, I don't expect anything to hold him up from being a free agent. So The benefits the goods AJ green you get a taller big-body receiver You get a physical wide receiver and this is exactly what the Ravens need and again, I'm still holding out hope That Miles Boykin ends up being that guy for the Ravens But until then this is what the Ravens need Somebody, you know what they can do They can make those contested catches They'll block for you They can run routes They does AJ green have the best speed in the world. No But that's not really what the Ravens need. They they have speed. They just got to use it a lot better But they do have speed. He's a veteran receiver. He knows the ins and outs of football I'm sure the playbook wouldn't be too hard for him to learn But with AJ green He gives you somebody who's been the number one guy before and essentially if he came to the Ravens He would be the number one guy like from jump. He'll be the number one guy Would be a nice compliment to Hollywood And again, he would give you that guy that veteran guy that established guy But the biggest thing with him Like we know all the the records. He's unbroken and in order the amazing plays that he done made He even got some hands too cuz I remember he got into it. What I think what Jalen Rads, but anyway AJ green the biggest thing is the what if One comment that really like oh it just it hurt me when I saw somebody say it It was last year during the season. They said that Jimmy Smith is the defensive version of AJ green So that would mean that AJ green is the offensive version of a Jimmy Smith and That's not a diss to either one of them But it's just the way that the ball has bounced in their careers and it's been unfortunate in how their careers have ended up Because these are two guys who if they would have been healthy throughout their careers These guys would have been some of the best in the league Consistently at their positions Jimmy Smith would have definitely been one of the best corners in the league for years He would have got pro bowls all pros all that stuff But he just couldn't stay healthy AJ green Even though he did have a lot of health problems He did establish himself as one of the best receivers in the league for a period of time But then the health the health that just kept catching up with him and he just kept kept getting hurt So injuries have definitely just messed up both of these guys careers big time so With AJ green that will be the biggest thing that like that's the biggest problem with the AJ green that is the problem health health health Can he stay healthy? Is he fully healthy? I mean You would think so especially after last year in Cincinnati because he got a lot of time off and But he just but another thing that I would be a little worried about Even though he will be going to a completely different team a team that he's very familiar with Where's his love for the game at right now? Does he still want to play football right now? Or would he just be collecting a check on his way out? Now that part doesn't overly concern me Just AJ green. He doesn't seem he doesn't strike me as a type to just collect a check and be like, okay I'm out but because maybe with Cincinnati since he just knew that his time was up with Cincinnati Maybe it was one of them things where he just needs he needs a change of environment He needs to be in a completely different scenario Because again, I remember I think it was the game in Baltimore against the Ravens Joe Burrow through a pass. It was it was too high for AJ green But he just he just stood there. He didn't even go for he ain't jumped for the markets He just caught the pick market speed to start running AJ green was just sitting there. He's just sitting there So, okay, and then in the final game of the season AJ green He I know Burrow wasn't the quarterback since he was already on injured reserve But he just looked dejected. He looked like he was just out of it Looked like he was not having fun at all and it could have been one of those things where it's just like a I didn't put in my two weeks notice So I'm just I'm going through the motions right now. I'm just going through the motions and I'm I'm done I don't want anything to do with this anymore. I'm done That's what it looked like That's really what it looked like So with AJ green if if the Ravens did make that move again It is very Raven like of them to make a move like that. Well more so Ozzy like though because Under Eric Dacosta He hasn't been going for the aging Close to being washed up wide receivers and I know who say there's Bryant, but He did that it he did that in the middle of the season Like in free agency so far Ozzy been going young he's been going young and Like, okay, I mean Eric Dacosta Dacosta not Ozzy not excuse me Eric Dacosta been going young Now we know Ozzy that was one of his things every year We would get that that veteran that only got a couple years maybe left in the league More recently under Ozzy. It had been Crabtree Steve Smith senior They traded for Bolden but Bolden had he had a good amount of time left More more than most of the receivers that they were usually signed. It was TJ Hooch Manzada Derek Mason with that that one ended up working out for for the for the most part Who else Trying to think of who else off the top of my head, but yeah, that's been Ozzy's thing But Eric Dacosta, you know, he signed Seth Roberts. He did sign That receiver. Oh, I forget his net Michael Floyd, but he cut him He cut him. He was like, oh, no you by cut him Okay, EDC all right now But at the same time while he has gone young at the wide receiver position, he's also gone cheap It is not a position that the Ravens whether it's been under Ozzy or whether it's been under Eric Dacosta It has not been a position that the Ravens really invest free agency money into So I really don't expect that to change, but that's why AJ Green again It would be a fit based off of Ravens their history based off of what they done it would just it would be a fit and I just Just like with JJ. Why it wouldn't necessarily be a move that I would be all yeah, let's get it, baby But if it happened I'd be like, oh, okay this Let's go But it will give Lamar a receiver with a big catch radius And I think he needs more those he needs more Receivers that can adjust to that ball Really go up and get it get the jump ball so we can just start he can just start doing more Because I feel like that's been a part of Lamar's game to is the trust factor The trust factor with his receivers because a lot most his receivers are smaller guys So I feel like and it's nothing against shorter guys because I'm I'm a short guy myself But when when your receivers a shorter guy, then you're almost limited on what you can do with them But except I mean you look at Tyreek Hill though look at Patrick Mahon's will throw a jump ball to Tyreek Hill Not necessarily a fifty-fifty. Well, sometimes he does But he'll throw a jump ball to Tyreek Hill Tyreek Hill. I don't know how but he'll go all the way up and get it But he just it's a different breed over there. I don't know what he got going on. But anyway But just having that bigger frame guy, I think we would help out Lamar a lot It would help out a whole lot. So With AJ Green, we'll see if it happens. Um, again, it just it's one of those things where it just makes too much sense based off of what Ravens have done so many times in the past and It just it just seems like because with dad's Brian, I don't think he's coming back. I Really don't I don't think he's coming back. I don't don't think he's gonna be back again I don't think he's a big fan of the Ravens offense I don't think he's a big fan of Greg Roman and I think he just once I think he's gonna want to go somewhere We can get more opportunity now Again 31 other teams passed on there's Brian. So Ravens gave they gave him the only chance But we'll see if somebody else ends up giving them a shot So anyway team keep it clean Appreciate y'all. I love y'all and free agency is about a month and a half away The start of free agency is about a month and a half away So we'll see if all these rumors about AJ Green to the Ravens Come to fruition or if they remain just that and stay rumors. I love y'all I appreciate y'all just like AJ Green is going to be with the Cincinnati Bengals very very soon
