 Promises not threats first question came from my guy mark. He said how what's going on in Graven? Hope you and the family are doing good. I have some questions and scenarios as well How far do you think we are away from being an actual playoff caliber team? Well, I think the Ravens They are there already. There's certainly a playoff team now as far as what they could do in the playoffs That's to be determined, but I think as of right now. They are certainly a playoff caliber team But he said Baltimore can be a competitive threat But I feel discomfort in how we win because sometimes we got to rely on Lamar for a little miracle Lol love lj. I like that one. He said it's like we squeak by some games or start slow some games I've seen or followed. I've seen other teams just magically end up in the red zone I remember your Apple update analogy with NFL offenses. It's like they are getting fast in Baltimore is getting slower With the team we have holes, but it also looks like we just need some upgrades at positions I just want to make promises not threats. Oh I Feel you on that one. I really do That and that was that was all last season Big majority of it the Ravens will come out and this is why the defense last year I feel like they got a lot of the blame And I feel like the defense I know they were 30 second rank past some like that But I think that was more so toward the end of the season and it wasn't it began to because they had a Marcus Peters and what not but anyway with the defense I feel like They're They weren't as bad as people thought they were Because a lot of time people all the late game collapses to giving up the fourth quarter leads and duh But if you recall Ravens was start off every game just so slow well not every game, but most games They thought I'm so slow and It's like they were taking so long to get into the flow of the game And it was like what is going on man And that would happen so often and it would be so frustrating like oh, okay got a pun again Oh got a pun again. Oh another pun. Oh another pun. Oh, we got a field go. Yeah. Oh another pun And they they gotta wake up a lot sooner and then and the defense will be playing good most of the time They'll be playing good be holding to holding it down and holding out the opposing offense But they can only do it for so long especially in today's league They could only do it for so long. So I'm Ravens offense. They they gotta wake up. They gotta wake up and to help them wake up Y'all know how I feel y'all know what I think they should do but anyway He said with the draft coming up, who do you want to take at 14? I've been on a Devon Lloyd bandwagon for a while But it's real hard because we can go in so many directions with wide receiver cornerback D-line offensive line linebacker Who's really the best player available? Mmm. It feels me. I Expect the Ravens to get it somebody like I expecting to go defense first Whether it's Jordan Davis whether I Like McDuffie, I like him a lot Whether it's Stingley, I don't think Stingley makes it to 14 though whether sauce gardener Cow Hamilton, I don't know about that I would be very intrigued to see what the Ravens did if he was just sitting there and they were at 14 I would be very intrigued. I'd be like, hmm But they don't have a lot of options like you said they they have so many different ways that they could go And sitting at 14, but if it's like it just depending on who would be there, man. I would be just It's gonna be a lot of shock. It's gonna be a lot of surprise Then for some people it's gonna be like, ah, okay. I saw that coming um Then it all just depends but I'm thinking Either they go they either go interior defensive line or they go edge or they go corner in the first I don't think they'll do anything unless they trade back up or they trade back That's the only way I think they possibly go anywhere else in the first But I think first is definitely defense for them He said, uh, lastly, I noticed all the trade scenarios for DK Metcalf I have ideas, but I want to step away from that Would you think Baltimore would consider trading Ronnie Stanley Chuck Clark or Gus Edwards? Ronnie Stanley right now. No, uh, because the dead money is just way too much Had things played out a little differently to where They didn't pay him the contract And then unfortunately he got hurt then I think there would have been a possibility there Then I think they they move Orlando Brown, Jr. Over there and they trade Ronnie Stanley But oof man, um, that's crazy how that I don't want to say worked out, but it's crazy just how it happened. I with Ronnie Stanley It's just crazy how everything went down with him um Hopefully he can be healthier. But oh anyway back to uh The question I do not think they would trade him because it's way too much dead money I think the earliest they could possibly trade or at least some would be uh 2024 Uh, so they got they got a He said Ronnie is a coin toss because who would pick up a hospital bill when they know they have they may have to pay it again because of his health These players do have awesome value to the team, but they are replaceable as well What do you thought told my question wasn't too long as always love your content and look forward to your video Shout out to you and your fam. I have a blessed day and try to relax and enjoy yourself. Oh, yeah You already know what time it is. I appreciate that man Stingley this sauce dad next question came from my god Daryl Davis. He said what's up? How's the fam? I keep hearing a lot of people talk about if stingly a sauce is gone at 14 go away from cornerback Andrew Booth is a raven. He might be the best cornerback in this draft But the media is sleeping on him if we could trade back Get an extra first or second and then get Booth and a top wide receiver What'd you think about that? I wouldn't be mad at that at all I wouldn't be mad at that at all not one bit Because they would be addressing a position of need and something that I talked about before when it comes to cornerback Right now the ravens. I think they got like about six million cap space Um So they if they wanted to make more moves Well, they're gonna they're gonna do something to get some more cap space restructures extensions whatever But as far as Marcus Peters, um, he has not been extended yet. There has been nothing with the Marcus Peters yet We were waiting seeing But as far as them drafting a corner Just in case because you know the business they can break some hearts, but just in case Marcus Peters wasn't with the ravens after this year Then they would have somebody to step in there and fill that role Hopefully that's not what happens with Marcus Peters but Stay ready. So you ain't got to get ready because you just never know um But then for them to get a corner and that's obviously a need because Cornerback is the quality drops off big time after those after the two starters But as far as one of the top wide receivers too Yeah, you you know i'm on board with that one all day too next question came from my boy j-dog He said hey another question for you. What do you think about instead of going after dk? We went after the hop Oh Wow I like that one. I wouldn't expect the ravens to do it, but I love the idea. I love the thought of it I love the possibility of it. Um, but I think uh with the cardinals. I'm not sure where they are right now With the kyla murray. I'm not sure what's going on with them. Um Now I did see the report that he's not going to the voluntary Offseason program with the cardinals right now and that's fine because it's voluntary That means it's not a requirement. I know so many fans. They try to get on the players when these players are not at voluntary stuff but anyway, um Depending on where they are with kyla murray right now If the cardinals are all in on him Then they may want to try to salvage any relationship that there is with kyla murray and by trading away his best wide receiver That wouldn't be it. Um, so I would I would love it Oh, I would love it. But I just Don't think it would ever happen. Hmm. And let's let's go back to uh The 2020 draft because that's when he got traded to the cardinals, right the 2020 draft right before the 2020 draft And because that's when it came out when the ravens that said the ravens tried but They weren't successful in doing so anyway, let's let me keep reading before I start crying those tears again He said kyla murray wants money and we can take off some money from cardinals by taking his contract on Expensive but worth it boom Also, I think they are ready for a rebuild in the offense around murray. Um, well, ah See, yeah, that's what I'm saying. I it just depends on how How in they all when it comes to kyla murray? Um, if you Like because that would be like sort of going backwards like all right kyla murray We're all in on you but you know what let's trade away your best receiver So that's that's why I don't think it's gonna go down next question came from echo He said do you think if lamar hasn't re-signed at the end of this season, uh, should we franchise tag? Well, they gonna have to figure something out Whether it's franchise tag or they just they give him a deal that he can't refuse But a lot rides on this season Um, his price tag rides on this season Uh, because of course, you already know it's going up But he can make it shoot through the roof If he just gets back to doing what we know, uh, he can do Um, so this season is gonna be very exciting But one thing that I hope is that lamar isn't over thinking everything because he knows like he's gonna get paid He knows he's gonna get paid But how much he get paid a lot of that depends on him So I just hope he isn't out there overthinking when he's playing overthinking when he's going through everything Um, because we wouldn't want that to hinder his game. I don't think you're a wheel Um, but I just know that from what we've seen A lot of times the ravens, uh, the the ravens coaching staff the ravens with like lamar A lot of times they can let that outside noise in And they they let you know in multiple ways that they hear it. They hear what's being spoken about them So if people keep talking about and bringing up the contract throughout this whole season, which they will They're gonna do it. Um, I would just hope that He could block all that out Just keep all that out and just take care of his business like we know he can And then the business will take care of the business.

I still love y'all. I appreciate y'all We've already had some great questions to start us off Let's see how everybody else follows with the questions to finish Next question came from my guy nick jay. He said ain't great in first time question Ask her here first saw your videos from your markets williams reaction and been hooked ever since I checked hourly for b-wags updates I appreciate it. He said uh with the drab loam. I'm getting excited They dreaming about potential game changer to take the team back to their pre-injury glory Oh, the good old days, huh? Uh, here's some scenarios. I've thought of which would you be most excited about? All right, Ravens trade up They trade up. I'm over here reading the name and the word trade at the same time They trade up for a k-von or sauce, but potentially lose next year's first round Okay, let's see the next scenario Ravens trade back and get two firsts from kc or something and get more quantity slightly less quality um It depends on if are you talking about like slightly less quality in the first round since they will be later first round picks Or just slightly less quantity on the back end of the draft um Next scenario, he said ravens use the pick in a in a package for a dk mech calf or a debo I'm assuming this is your hope Hey, you're a small man Um, but let me see what the other options are. He said number four They stick, uh, where they are and grab either Jordan Davis Oh trend mcduffy who we were just talking about really like him devin loy Linda bomb carloftus to name a few decent pickups Personally if we're not gonna do something crazy like trading up for k-von. I like mcduffy to finish. Oh, oh See, look at that. He okay. We on the same page He said I like mcduffy to finish out no flies on and hope to get a day to edge and a vet Receive him to take some pressure off of our future stars. Thanks for all the hard work and keeping the flock up to date Appreciate this. This was some fun scenarios um As far as what will be my favorite Excluding the the trade for a dk or a debo. Um I would probably say Either Two Or four two was ravens trade back and get two first from kansas city Or something and get more quantity slightly less quality now um The quality could still be very high Especially would it be in first round picks? It's still the top. These will be two of the top 32 players In the draft and you get to pick from two of them in the first round Uh, so I think the quality will still be very high now your options, of course will be a little bit less But the quality will still be high And depending on how to use them obviously, but and as long as they went and got guys That were making immediate impact like they did last year last year first round pick and eric the kasa Since he's been a gm the first round picks. They've been very impactful. They have been very impactful So it was hollywood brown patrick queen Uh rishad babin and doffy away But they've they've been very impactful now. It's after that with just a little bit shaky. Um, but If they did that, uh Cool, uh, and then number four said stay where they're at and grab, uh, either davis mcduffy Lloyd linda bomb carloftus to name a few Yeah, and that they could do that and then just go get their wide receiver in a second So, yeah, yeah, these are all fun options But yeah, two and four are probably my favorites speaking of trading for a wide receiver from the seahawks next question came from time just that ain't graven. How are you in the family haven't sent in the question lately? I noticed, uh, but I sure have been listening. I appreciate that Ravens fans have been requesting dk maccaff. I think that is a reach He would be too costly and he is a bit of a diva I can see him demanding the ball too much and catching attitudes That's that's what good wire receivers do That's what they do because hey like The some of the best wire received not all of them, of course But some of the best wires they want the ball because they want to make stuff happen. They want to make plays So that hey, it's part of the risk, but when you see the result, oh, okay, cool That's why you wanted the ball so much because you could ball. But anyway, uh, she said however No one has thought about tyler lock it when I watched to see hawks He was getting the ball more than maccaff because he is a better route runner He is he's fast. He's speed. He got some good speed. He got some good hands. Um And tyler lock is straight. I just talking about got josh about this a couple couple weeks ago Um, I would I would just rather a bigger frame guy though I I feel like we have um, a lot of smaller frame wider receivers And that would just be adding to another one and tyler lock is not bad at all He's not but I would just rather a bigger frame guy for the jump ball for that the catch radius So the the window for lamar to get it to him will be bigger. Um, I would just rather that tyler lock It ain't bad though, but I would rather that Or she said tyler lock. It doesn't have that deep Deep mentality like dk and he probably wouldn't demand so much money I don't know why no one is asking if he wants to leave the seahawks. I think he would fit perfectly with the ravens Yes, uh, I he he would be straight. Um, but yeah, like I said, I me personally I would rather a bigger frame wide receiver because I feel like a bigger frame wide receiver With some speed with some good hands with that just a playmaker I feel like he would compliment a hollywood and compliment a rashad bateman and compliment a mark andrew's that much more
