 YouTube team keep it clean. What's going on? It's saying graven here with another video and In this video, this is what we were really gonna need to work with each other on this video We're really gonna need to work with each other because I have a lack of understanding on exactly how the comp pick formula works The biggest part that I do understand even though it's a lot of misunderstanding on it Is that with the comp picks the way that you acquire comp picks is if a player on your team Has an expiring contract and then they become a free agent and you don't re-sign them and then another team signs them to a certain amount of money and And I don't think it's a well Yeah, if they sign them to a certain amount of money by a certain date because there's a cutoff date for you to receive a comp pick for your free agent And they have to be on the team for a certain amount of time And it all that's where everything starts to become a little bit loopy for me That's why I said I need you guys help because I don't understand exactly how it works Because I know it's got something to do with how many players you lose versus how many players you acquire Sometimes guys that you sign can cancel out comp picks for and it's just anyway The Ravens They released Justin Bethel today That was something that had been talked about for the past Couple of weeks by a lot of Ravens reporters. They mentioned that it could be a possibility that that happens They didn't see it as likely because he's been a good special teamer But they said there was still a chance now The reason that there was still a chance is because with with Brent Urban He recently got released And when Brent Urban got released from the Titans then that Eliminated one of the Ravens comp picks because they signed Justin Bethel Because he was a free agent from another team and he canceled it. Oh, it's just a mess when you think about it It's a mess when you think about it. That's why I said I just I need you guys help with understanding it but I believe With the Ravens with them cutting Justin Bethel that this will allow them to recoup a Comp pick and let me just see. Oh there goes right there. Oh man the same words I just used James and hence he just tweeted out He said Ravens announced that they've cut Justin Bethel, which means they recoup the fourth round comp pick Bethel was leading a team in special teams See and with this I'm even more confused on so they get a fourth round comp pick back that they were expecting from their losses and the guys that other teams signed Like a CJ Mosey, he would definitely count towards a comp pick a Brent Urban obviously had something to do with it Terrell Suggs John Brown who's been killing it by the way, I'm surprised maybe he actually wants to play for that team now, but anyway Um The comp pick formula is just it's crazy, but Eric the cost in the Ravens They showed that they really value the hit draft picks But one thing that um with all this confusion and my apologies I know this is a very confusing video a lot of y'all like engraving. What are you talking? You're confusing me So my apologies but Regardless of the whole comp pick thing Something that we need to pay attention to is that the Ravens they released Justin Bethel And I said they also released um somebody off the practice squad too Let me go look exactly to see who it was because I don't want to leave anybody out man They released Jer a defensive tackle Jeremiah led better from the practice squad so they did a double release They released somebody from the active roster and from the practice squad But more so just to focus on the active roster part. They released Justin Bethel So what does this mean? Some people may think oh, well that means Jimmy Smith. He could be back Well, he could have been back regardless of this release because they've continued to carry Jimmy Smith on the active roster one may think even Marshall Cuz Eight weeks. I mean he can he can actually start practicing. I believe but he um He's he will next week will be his eighth week missed So he'll be eligible return after next week and next week is a buy. So he's eligible return for the Patriots game So that would be a thought But but I know most people are thinking who pass rusher pass rusher pass rusher Raven's probably gonna get a pass rusher now, and I think they do I think they are Because that is still a problem pass rush is still an issue Pass rush is still an issue Still a it's still a concern Even in the wind against the Seahawks now without pass rush They got some bad calls called against them yesterday that helped the Seahawks stick around Because again, like I said before and I said it in the in my post game thoughts video that I did y'all Just haven't seen it yet. I haven't dropped it yet, but the the rest kept them Seahawks around that game should not have been that close It should not have been that close But anyway pass rush is still a problem Consistent pass rush is still a problem. It's still a big problem It's a concern and if they don't get it fixed. It's gonna be a long Season and it's gonna. It's gonna be a short off season So with that being said, I'm not sure exactly what's route they take now Because they definitely value special teams players. I mean their head coach is a special teams coach John Hubbell So he definitely knows the value of special teams guys But he also knows there's a value in the pass rush and Our pass rush is not very valuable right now. I'm not sure what the Ravens are gonna do I'm not sure which route they're gonna go. I'm not sure what steps they're gonna take now I'm just not sure of what is going to happen next Now Justin Bethel he could be back soon I'm not sure exactly how the formula works. How long somebody's got to be I don't know But I believe something has to do with after week 10. I believe Because if because I was reading something a couple of weeks ago that was talking about Justin Bethel And it was talking about oh if the Ravens Um, something happens if they were to cut him before week 10 then blah blah blah and I forgot what it said so Again, sorry for all the confusion Just it's that that compic formula just drives me crazy. I don't know exactly what I don't and I think a lot of it is not even really public A lot of whatever it takes to get a compic to acquire to To be eligible for it. A lot of that. I don't even think is public Like I feel like we know bits of unless some of y'all know more than me But I feel like we know bits and pieces, but we don't really get the full gist of But that's that anyway team keep it clean Appreciate y'all love y'all and just like just Justin Bethel is temporarily I'm out
