If you want to be part of NFL Questions from Subscribers, you can send me an email at teamkeepitclean at gmail.com and we'll answer your question in the video. We got plenty of questions to get into today, so let's do it. First question came from my guy, Mark Baskin. He said, what's going on in Graven? I like your hustle. Hey, appreciate it, man. I said, should the Raven, oh, he sent us on August 11th. He said, should the Raven sign Everson Griffin? If so, how much money do you think we should give him? Well, well, well, we all know how this story ended. Everson Griffin ended up going to the Cowboys and if he can help, he can definitely help offset the loss of a, I kept calling him Greg Hardy today, Gerald McCoy. He can help offset the loss of Gerald McCoy because if he can continue to play at a high level and generate pressure, generate consistent pressure, then that can sort of ease the rest of the Cowboys pass rush. They got a lot of depth at their pass rush position. But if the Ravens would have signed Everson Griffin, I would have been cool with it. But he plays in a 4-3 Ravens, I mean, they could come up with some packages for him. But I mean, if you're a baller, you're a baller. You could play in a 4-3, you could play in a 3-4, Cowboys playing a 3-4-2. So he'll be fine. But I wouldn't have minded if they would have signed Everson Griffin over here. I just said signed it. Wow. That would have been a nice pick up for them. I know a lot of Ravens fans actually wanted them to sign Everson Griffin. But how much I think he would have been worth, yeah, I'd say for Ravens, like a one year, three mil max. And that's based off of incentives because they have like about seven million cap space. So they ain't got too much money to spend there. They ain't got too much money. So I know Cowboys gave him about like a one year, six million dollar deal, something like that. But Ravens, while they could technically afford that, they still want to have some money in the reserves. Next question came from my guy, Yosef. And by the way, the date that I'm recording this video is August 18th at 1251 a.m. Anyway, that's beside the point. My guy Yosef said with Kiddles new contract being 15 mil per year, five years, 75 mil, 30 guarantee, 18 million dollar signing bonus. He has reset the tight end market. Now that might not last as eventually Travis Kelce will need his next extension and he did get it the same day. But it wasn't for as much. I don't believe. But anyway, he said, but let's talk Ravens. Mark Andrews is going into this third year and he's going to be one of the vocal points of our offense and will in all likelihood be Lamar's first or second target. Hollywood could be number one. Now, if we look at the Ravens cap space, they are set up in a great way. They have money and flexibility. Sadly, we won't know how much salary cap we will actually have because of COVID-19. The Ravens almost have to pay Stanley. Humphrey and Lamar and they will have the cap space to do that. Now the Ravens also have Jude on Andrews and Orlando Brown Jr. to pay in the near future. As Ravens fans, we all hope that Lamar will take less money. But I never liked that way of thinking because almost every quarterback in the history of football has taken the money they deserve, except for rating in my opinion, the best way for the Ravens to keep all these young players is to get ahead and give our contracts before the contract year. So since George Kiddles deal just happened, let's talk about Mark Andrews. How would you feel, or how realistic is it, if the Ravens after this season, Andrews third season, they gave him a four year, 40 to 44 million dollar extension. This extension would kick in after his final year of his rookie contract. This would also mean that no matter how good Andrews is, the Ravens will have him for the last year of his rookie contract and probably three of the four of the extension. Now, I know that this contract might seem a little small since Andrews was a pro bowler, but the way I think about it, if your Andrews get in $40 million a year, we'll put you in the top five at your position. You'll get to staying in offense that values tight ends where you're your top target in a priority. It just gives him long term stability. So in short, after this season, we give him a four year, 40 to 44 million dollar extension. So that's anywhere from 10 mil per to 11 mil. No, not to 11 mil per. Yeah, to 11 mil per because four times 11 is 44. Okay. But anyway, he said, hold up. I feel like I'm doing something wrong with my math because four years, 40 million will be 10 mil per four years, 44 million. Yeah, it'd be 11 mil per. Something doesn't sound right about that. Anyway, he will finish his rookie contract, then have the extension kick in. Even if players will reset the market, Andrews will be under contract and therefore could be underpaid. Look at what EDC did with Tavon, Boyle and Ricard. You get ahead, give young players extension and down the line, it can pay off. As if the player has a breakout season, they are not in a contract year. So what do you think? Hope life is treating you well and go Ravens. That was some detail. Shout out to my guy, Yozef. That would be the way that they could get ahead with Mark Andrews. But I think, yeah, and this is a year to see just his consistency. How can he follow up what he just did? Because from year one to year two, there was a significant jump. But in year one, you did see the, you saw the possibility, you saw the potential. And then in year two, he banked on that potential. He did have some games where it didn't seem like his head was all the way in the game and he had some little hiccups here and there. But he did really good last season. Every player has those hiccups, so it ain't no big deal. So with Mark Andrews, and yeah, he did do it with Tavon, young with Ricard, with Eric DeCasso, he seems to be where he will pay early, rather than wait till later. And with Lamar, we'll see what happens with that, because this will be his third year and he's eligible for an extension after this year. But with a quarterback extension, that's like, that's real deal. Not that these other contracts are not real deal, but quarterback extension is like, that's top of the line money right there. So I think it all just depends on how the Ravens do the outcome of this season. If they win the Super Bowl, then I think the Ravens will definitely think about paying Lamar right then and right there. If for some reason, which is not going to happen, if for some reason they didn't win the Super Bowl, then I think they will think about holding off on it. So it just, we got to see, man, when we get there. But they, again, they do have a lot of people to pay. They got so many people to pay. But with your theory, with Mark Andrews, if they ended up paying him early and gave him a contract anywhere from 40 to 44 mil, yeah, it would seem like a budget deal. It would seem like a low deal. I don't even know. I don't know, man. I don't know how Mark and Andrew, well, it all depends on him, his agent and whatnot, but I don't even think they would take that, man. I don't even think they would take it. But it would be obviously be a significant pay raise, but I don't even know if he would really take it, man. Because, because when you, especially if he continues to do what he's been doing, because he will continue to establish himself as one of the better tight ends in the league. And like you said, it is a tight end friendly offense. It is a tight and heavy offense. The Titans are very involved. So that him being so involved could make him want even more money. And he could be like, Hey, I'm a big part of this offense. You giving me that four years, 40 mil? Like, what's that? What am I doing with that? Well, I could do a lot of stuff with that. But still, like, give me something more. Show me that you really value me. So while paying him early, it would put him ahead of the curve and ahead of any, if he has another breakout season, if he continues just to do really good, it would put them ahead of that. And they wouldn't have to worry about the market being reset because they will have already have that guy locked in. But at the same time, I don't really think he would go for that cheap deal, especially if he keeps on doing what he's been doing. Next question came from my guy, Justice. He said, Dan Graven, I was watching the NF podcast live and he brought up something no one really talking about with the Ravens. Talking about my guy, Joe Nubow. Shout out to Nubow, man. He said, the cornerbacks of the Ravens don't have a lot of depth that have experience really playing. As you know, we have Peter's Humphrey Young Smith as our top four. Young and Smith have a history of injuries. If one of them goes down, we have Anthony Averett, who gets burned a lot when starting now with Anthony Averett. Hold up now. Like, I know a lot of people got hung up on the beginning of the season, but toward the end of the season, he looked a lot better. But anyway, let's keep going. He said, Eamon Marshall. Well, he obviously sent this before Eamon Marshall went out for the year. So he's exed off the list. Terrell Bonds and Josh Nurse. I know Young is about 100 percent and Smith was good last year, but it takes just one play. What are your thoughts? And thanks again and hope you and your family are doing well. Appreciate it, Justice. You, yeah, that's true. And now I'm sure he is probably thinking about his email after he sent this and saw the Eamon Marshall news and like, oh, boy, see, this is what he's talking about. But you you can really like, of course, you know, injuries is one of the biggest fears of any team, one of the biggest problems any team could face. You don't want to go into the season thing. Oh, my gosh, who is going to get hurt? Oh, who's it going to be? And you certainly want to have have everything covered. You want to have insurance policies and whatnot, too. But I mean, you could say that about any position, really. That, oh, if this if this person gets hurt, then oh, we don't got a lot of depth behind them, especially the quality depth that is in front of them. Like Lamar, who's behind him? RG three, Trace McSawley. Now we're running back. That'd be a little bit different now, because running back, they like stuck there. But. And even at wider Seva, at wider Seva. I mean, just everybody's young at wider Seva, unless they did end up signing there's Brian, then they wouldn't be young anymore. I don't think they're going to sign there's Brian, though. We had a live stream tonight where we were talking about that. I think it's a smokescreen for somebody else, somebody, somebody who nobody's even talking about for the Ravens. But anyway, besides the point, you could talk about it with offensive line, with linebackers, with all that stuff. If you suffer an injury, your depth is immediately affected. I mean, but we just got a hold for the best. We got a hold for the best with the linebackers. I mean, not the linebackers, but just really with everybody. Because injuries are something that you can't control. You just hope that they don't happen. And if they do happen straight up, it's next man up. It's next man up. That's all you can do about it. And I know my guy, Nubo, in his video, he talked about. Yeah, he did talk about that. The depth, the lack of depth at the corner position. He said a problem that nobody's talking about with the Ravens is, if there's an injury at cornerback, what would they do? What would happen? What would go down? And that's just one thing that they're going to have to address when they get there. And I mean, they did end up getting there today with even Marshall going down, but they do still have, like you said, nurse, Avery, Terrell Bonds. So they do still have those guys. But now it's just a way to see what's next. Next man up. Next question came from Rhonda M. She said, I ain't gravy. And I got a couple of questions for you. Why do you think? Oh, no, who do you think is the overrated and underrated team going into this season? Oh, wow. That's a good one. Overrated and underrated team. Well, underrated, I think could be the Browns, Bingles or dolphins. The reason I say those is because they all have really young quarterbacks. Obviously, Baker Mayfield is the most experienced out of the three since he's been playing for two years. And then Joe Burrow and two of both the rookies going into this year. Now, both teams, especially the Bingles, super, super talented. Well, they always are, really. But especially on offense, man. Now, if they could just, if they could find a striater, if they could hit the stride and get a decent stride, hit a decent stride early and really get things clicking early, they could be dangerous. I don't expect them to this year. I really expect them next year. But you just never know, man. You never know how things are going to turn out. You never know how rookies are going to turn out. And you never know how some young teams could end up flipping the switch and just getting it. And the same thing with the dolphins, man. Dolphins made a lot of good moves. And they got a really good coach over there where Brian Flor is, who the team absolutely loves. And they can play hard for him. And last year, they didn't have a talented team. But this year, they do. So if the talented team, if they really going to play for him with talent, that could be dangerous if they get on the right side of the win column. So those will be my underrated guys. And of course, the Browns, you know, Browns is the stacked roster, loaded team. They just got to put it together as far as coaching. And of course, execution as well, a blend of both. But coaching is where it starts. So if they could get it together over there, then they could be dangerous, too. Now, overrated, who do I feel is an overrated team? Wow, overrated. Wow, this is a good question right here, man. Mm. Somebody that so many people just talking about, like, nonstop. I can't say chiefs. Because they kept everybody and got even better. For Ravens, Ravens pretty much kept everybody and got even better, too. Even though they had that undefeated talk, that's what they went 14-2 last year. So they, ooh. Overrated. Wow. I cannot think of anybody right now. Because I'm really trying to. But I cannot think of anybody right now. Patriots, no, I don't really think they're overrated. I don't think anybody's thinking that they're going to know Superbowl or anything like that. Or some people do. Uh, Patriots, no, not Patriots. Mm. Not even Packers. 49ers, no. They've been doing some things on offense to get a little better. And they still got that defense. Mm. I cannot really think about anybody that's overrated. I really can't. I really can't. That is an extremely tough question. Well, maybe the, I can't even say the Broncos. I know some people feel like the Broncos about to be on a come up, but ain't nobody really hyping them like that, like that. I really cannot think of anybody. I am so sorry. And real quick, I just had to come back to the question real quick, because I'm looking at all the different NFL teams and stuff. I wouldn't even say Cowboys. Maybe Eagles don't even get hyped like that, either though. Like every time I think about a possible, possibly overrated team, I start looking and thinking, like they ain't even really getting hyped like that. I know some people can say the Bucks. But Brady, he got some weapons, man. He got like a 50,000 weapons, man. He got 50 different options that he could pass to on that team and hands it off. The Saints, they stacked as usual. The Bills, they on a come up. The Cardinals, oh man, they got the biggest steel trade in history by getting Hopkins for super cheap. Panthers, they going through a transition, but nobody's hyping them up like that. Falcons, they got all those first round picks, but nobody's hyping them like that. Texans, they nobody's hyping them like that. Like, I just haven't seen the teams that have been getting hyped. Obviously the Ravens, the Chiefs, they've been getting Patriots a little bit. Cowboys, their roster's night. Seahawks, Cowboys, their roster's nice. They got a new head coach, but I don't think they've been getting over-hyped. I just, or overrated. I really cannot think of anybody, man. I tried twice, but I can't think of nobody. Oronda's other question. He said, also between the Mario Cooper, Julio Jones, and Hollywood Brown, which would you bench, cut, and start? And thanks for answering. I hope that you and everyone in Team Keep It Clean is good. Hey, I appreciate it. Thank you. Which would I bench Hollywood, cut, Amari, start Julio? The reason I would bench Hollywood is because he not on Julio Jones level yet. Reason that I will cut Amari, because Amari, he just, he always hurting. It just seems like he can be mentally drained from the game, not drained, but he can check out mentally from the game a lot. And then I will start Julio, because he's the best receiver right now out of these three. Next question. Came from my guy, Jarvis Fowler. Shout out to my guy, man. He said, hope you're in the mood for a little game called Buy or Sell. Number one, Buy or Sell, that Patrick Green will lead the team in tackles this year. Or he is gonna be starting. He said he's been very quick in a student of the game. I could buy that. I could buy that one. Next, Buy or Sell, that the Ravens will finish with three or more losses. I could see that, but, oof. The team is so much better. It's just all depends on coaching though. Coaching good for about two or three losses in a year. So if you combine coaching with, with how they good for about two or three losses every year, and then you combine it with the players, there may be a game where they just not in it. I could see that. Yeah, yeah, I'll buy. Oh, and he said three or more. Okay, yeah, I'll buy that. He said, Buy or Sell, that Kaleas Campbell will lead the team in sex sale. And Buy or Sell, that Lamar Jackson won't rush for a thousand yards. Ooh, that's a tough one, man. For that one, I am going to go with, ooh. I am going to sell, because he said Lamar Jackson won't rush for a thousand. I think he could actually hit a thousand again, especially because he'll be playing even more this year than he did last year. Oh, I expected to be playing even more this year than he did last year. But last year, he missed nine quarters and still got the crazy Russian yards, still led the league. Oh, we ain't got to go through it. But anyway, my guy, Jarvis Fowler's next question. He said, Mr. Raven, hard-asking questions when everybody had the same thoughts and questions to ask you. LOL, that's funny. He said, just going to give you a few topics that I wanted you to give me your opinion on. So here I go. Number one, Lamar Jackson this season. It's time to see about that consistency. It's time to see the follow-up. How do you follow up in MVP season? What do you do next? Where do you go from here? His second topic, he said, Matt Scorer returns that can give the offensive line some consistency, some experience. And again, Pat McCarty, he did really good. He did really, really good. So he set himself up nicely for the future, but Matt Scorer is back. Hopefully he can be nice and healthy and he can finish out this season nice and strong and block for the Super Bowl champions on the Super Bowl offensive line. And then I would expect him to cash out. Well, really regardless of what happens, I expect him to cash out after the season, but with another team, unfortunately. But fortunately for him, for making that money, for him and his wife, his newborn baby, but unfortunately for the Ravens, I don't think he would be with them. Number three, Eamon Marshall injury. Unfortunate, very unfortunate because with Eamon Marshall, I was hoping to see what he could do. I was hoping to see what he had. I heard good things about him. And what was he a fourth round pick out of USC from last year? I was really informed to see whatever opportunity he did get on the field. Obviously that's not happening now. But yeah, it's just really unfortunate what happened to him. Number four, Ravens expectations too high. I don't think the expectations are too high, especially based off of last year. The biggest expectation now is just the playoffs, man. The playoffs. I know a lot of people talking about undefeated and all that, blah, blah, blah. That don't really faze me much. I just, I expect them to be successful, especially because their team is even better than they were last year. And yes, talent doesn't always translate to success, but Ravens, they got a good, they're in a good place, they're in a good spot. And I do expect them to do very well. And you said the rookies. Rookies, biggest thing with them, making immediate impact. Making immediate impact in several different ways of the game. So obviously, Duvenay, Proshay, impact, the slot impact, just no dropping the football. And then Proshay got an impact in the return game. Give us a nice little spark there. And then of course, Patrick Queen and Malik Harrison immediate impact. And then Matta Buke too. Matta Buke, he's gonna be getting in enough times too. And he can help provide some interior and exterior pressure wherever they decide to put him. And then the right guard competition. Ooh, okay, DJ Fluka. He looks to be the guy that's in the lead right now. But then of course you got Ben Powers. They could end up moving somebody around. Tyree Phillips, who knows what they're gonna do. But I think that it's gonna end up going to DJ Fluka. And last, he said coronavirus impact on this season. Season is definitely different than any season that we've ever seen before because of everything going on with the whole pandemic. But it has already taken people out the game because a lot of people have opted out. So it's made a big impact. And I do believe that there are gonna be some fans that are like, hey, for whatever team ends up winning the Super Bowl this year, there are gonna be some fans that are like, hey, this doesn't count, this doesn't count. But it counts because it's football being played. So it certainly counts. But this, that was a fun one, y'all. It's not like that. That was something a little different, man. I love that the way that you, I appreciate it, man. Next question came from my God, Charles B. He said, I ain't gravy and hope the family's doing well. Hey, you too, man. He said, my question is, with all the new pieces on the defense, do you think the rookies and free agents we signed will gel together and be on one accord? Thanks for reading. I appreciate it, man. I think it could take some time for that. Reason I say it could take some time for that is because they will not have had a preseason. They will only have had training camp and practices and whatnot, but they won't have had a preseason. And with them not having a preseason, that gives them less time before the season starts to get acclimated with each other. They really start clicking and really started gelling. I think they will get it eventually though. And then it could take a game or two. And there's gonna be some mistakes along the way because you will not have had any on-the-job training because your on-the-job training starts like when you're on a job and everything counts. But I think they're definitely gonna get through it though. Next question came from my boy, Lewis. He said, on the trade of Jamal Adams, Seattle got back a great player who is gonna help a much-needed secondary. True, Jamal Adams. They did give up a lot, including two first-rounders and an Astartan safety. Who will down the road benefit the most from this trade? That's a good one. Down the road, it all just depends on how the jets draft. That's the biggest thing. It depends on how the jets draft. I feel like both of them end up winning because with Jamal Adams, you get a great player and you're getting ready to re-sign him to an extension either next year or the year after that. Not this year. He said he's gonna play for, I think, three million, seven million, whatever it is this year. But you get a really, really, really good player who has an immediate impact on your team, immediate impact on your secondary and just gives you that much of a boost on defense in so many different ways. Not just his safety, but in pass rush too. He can do so many different things. And then with the jets, you've got two first-round picks, you've got a, I think, a third or fourth-round pick too and you've got Bradley McDougal, who is, like you said, Astartan safety. So depending on how they draft, man, and jets, it's been rough over there for a little minute, but depending on how they draft, depending on how they do things with that, they could end up winning as well. So I think the Seahawks, they have the more certain win when it comes to the trade, but the jets, they can win too if they just do things right. And the last question on this special episode of NFL Questions From Subscribers came from a guy, Pap Holliday. He said, what's up, team, keep it clean? Just a thought, a trend is emerging. Cam Meredith ends on IR after leveraging a better deal from Saints. There's Bryant, tests his ACL after passing on the Ravens. Gerald McCoy has a torn ACL after deciding to sign with Carolina over the Ravens. Clay Matthews, broken jaw after not signing with the Ravens. Not a conspiracy theorist, but all the coincidences people might start to think, take the ride or sit hurt on the side. I like to hear your thoughts. I hope the family is doing well. Wow. I hadn't even noticed all that stuff. Wow. That is certainly interesting. I mean, the timing is kind of spread out. And so you can't, it doesn't really link like that because it's not immediate. Like with the Cam Meredith, his was immediate. Then he, I think the Patriots had ended up signing him. But then he went on IR, but yeah. There's Bryant, yeah, he tore his ACL, but that was like, I think that was like a year after he turned down the, yeah, that was like a year after he turned down the Ravens, I believe. Jared McCoy, he tore his ACL a year after. Clay Matthews, he got the broken jaw, but that season, but he didn't miss the entire season. He didn't miss a couple of games and whatever. Cause you know, somebody stole them in there. But anyway, I don't think it's a correlation. I just think it's just a crazy coincidence, but I don't think it's, I don't think it got anything to do with them turning down the Ravens, man. But I'm sure somebody watching this is probably thinking like, hey, if there's a free agent receiving, not even receiving, but a free agent player that's watching this video right now, they may be thinking, hold up, let me not turn these boys down, man.
