I love you. I appreciate you Remember to check on your people man. Check on your people no matter how good they seem no matter how bad they seem check on your people I love y'all team keeping clean. I appreciate y'all Let's get into these questions first question came from Terry say what's up engraving? What's up Terry? Hope you're in a family doing good and chilling But everybody talking about the Ravens being interested in getting Chandler Jones or Zadaria Smith Some Ravens fans won't channel it because they the Cardinals took T sizzle away from us. Well, they didn't take him away from us He didn't want to take Ravens money Especially if he wasn't the T sizzle of old so he went to the Cardinals. Okay. I'll take their money It's just business. But anyway, I honestly think that we shouldn't get any of them And here's the reason why remember back in 2015 we drafted Zadaria Smith We had guys like Elvis Dumaville Patrick on wasu Zachary or around him We kept letting those guys get more opportunities than him and then what did he do? He left and he started balling out in Green Bay. Well, I mean, I don't think it was like that Because it took time like he's not was he like a fifth round pick I think but they're not just gonna throw him on a field like that Especially if they got guys that are better than him and more experienced in him in front of him But it takes time for him to learn to play book learner system get acclimated get comfortable and whatnot Then you can put a man in bits and pieces and whatnot and when he gets those opportunities You'll be like, oh, okay. I'm getting more comfortable with this I'm getting better with that and then you throw him out there even more So it wasn't just as simple as drafting him in 2015 and having those other guys play in front of him And then boom all of a sudden he left. No, he's got more and more comfortable He got better and better and he was looking he was looking good, man And he knew he just knew like I remember we did a um, I think we were doing a live stream Against the Titans that that game with Ravens got like 12 sacks or something crazy like that And Zadaria Smith on one of them sacks He looked at the camera and he went just like that cuz he knew we knew I wanted them to keep Zadaria Smith so bad But I knew that the Ravens were not gonna pay him because they continued to do this with their past rushers They will keep one they will keep a main guy and they will keep letting the other guys just go out Just like with Ray Lewis, they will keep a main guy and they keep letting the other guys around them just go They keep letting them go because they had their main guy, but they weren't gonna pay main guy money to both guys So they will keep letting guys go That's what happened with Paul Krugel. That's what happened with Zadaria Smith. That's what happened with Art Jones That's what ha it's a psycho man It's a sight mad judon more recently it happened so we knew it's Darius Smith It was going to be no different. We hoped it was gonna be different But we knew that he wasn't gonna be back with the Ravens, but anyway back to the question. He said um We kept letting those guys get more opportunities in him and then what did he do? He left and started balling out in Green Bay. Well, yeah, again, he started balling out with the Ravens first But he balled out and limited opportunity with Green Bay became a full-time starter He was always out there on the field and he just showed us what we knew he had already. That's it We knew he was like that But now he was gonna get an opportunity to be on the field full-time. Oh, man He did his thing the reason why I'm saying this is because we have to give the young guys a chance and also save money For a cap so we can sign Lamar Jackson Mark Andrews and other players in the future And we also have guys from last year that really didn't get a chance to flourish on a defensive side of the ball like Jalen Ferguson aka sack daddy and G high ward well G high ward is gone. He is a Jacksonville Jaguar now So we got to scratch him off of that but sack daddy still there But he hasn't quite turned that corner yet. Hopefully this is the year hopefully this is the year where he really gets it He really understands and comprehends everything and he turns it on hopefully this is it But anyway, he said the Ravens made sure we had them when it was playoff time against King Henry Anyways, I think we should just let our young guys get a chance to be great and give them an opportunity to go crazy Thanks to Graven stay blessed to keep it clean and big trust and he said PS. I Die for your way. We'll be a pro bowler this year. I Want to be no stinking pro bowler. I want him to be a super bowler. I want to be a super bowler get that one but anyway Um But yeah with Chandler Jones, man, Chandler Jones will be great Chandler Jones will be great a welcome home for Zizairie Smith will be great Both of them are apparently unhappy with their teams unhappy with their contracts and so on and so forth Well, either one be coming to the Ravens my opinion new not at all. I for Chandler Jones, I think there is a possibility of small tiny weasy possibility, but I just don't think it's gonna happen I really don't it could happen is Possible, but I just don't see the Ravens going that route. I don't see it If they did get a Chandler Jones, they would have to do some restructuring to his deal They would have to push the money forward So again, it's possible because again the cap is cap. Oh, yeah, I forget the cap is cap So there are ways to manipulate that salary cap. So anybody who you want you can get You can get you got to get creative with it now They'd be hitting Pat Moriarty up and be like hey Pat, man. Hey, we need you to flip some stuff around We need you move some money So they could do it But I just don't think they will for either one of the two players Either one now there's Justin Houston to who's there still been plenty of speculation about him I don't think Ravens gonna get him either. I don't I think with the Ravens like we've been saying for a while a lot of times when they zig Well, people think they're gonna zig they zag People think they're gonna go straight. They do a sling people people think they're gonna go right. They go left Ravens they they do stuff that You don't expect They do stuff that a lot of a lot of times not about nine times out of ten They do stuff that you don't expect they will catch you off guard and sometimes you go, oh, who's that and Then you see them that guy playing and that guy contributing to be like, oh, okay I'm glad they made it move or sometimes you say whoa, who's that and then you see a guy playing They be like, oh yikes, I really like that move. But anyway, I just I don't think the Ravens are gonna do the obvious When it comes to a past Russia, and of course, I think they still want to see what they got, too I don't think they're done adding at the past Russia position at edge DN whatever But I don't think it's gonna be one of those mean guys and continuing the next question came from my guy Rodeo shot to Rodeo. Yeah, it has been a minute man It's been a minute. Hope your summer been good But some of times over now it's time to get back to it. He's in my guy. What's up? Long time no here from yes That's true. Well at least you ain't here for me. I still been locked in hope everything is good your fam Oh, yeah, appreciate everything is great man. Everything is really great open practice this Saturday My guy we seriously cannot do this We absolutely positively cannot trade for Chandler Jones not because he won't help not because it's a position of need Not because he's a star. We cannot make this move because of principle I've seen that if we make this trade his cap hit would be around 20 Eminems, however, the cars would have to take five as dead money That still leaves 15 mil and with that you talking about restructuring deals just to get him to fit under our cap Some may say so, but I will not Ravens pull this move and it's another example of slapping Lamar Jackson in the face They're always going all out on defense and this is potentially about to happen again Where was the energy for that super cheap deal Julio got? I don't care about age anything You never ever had a Julio on this side of the ball You had a Chandler Jones on that side man. Oh man, this move will send me out the roof Would it help? Of course That's just simply not the point here. I Love this Because my guy rodeo. He was adamant about this adamant about it the Julio Jones thing adamant about it. I Remember his questions from subscribers. I remember him calling if the Ravens were to get a Julio Jones That would give that why receive a rumor steroid shot Because they will be so strong Julio would make them that much better And like we talked about too if the Ravens would have got a Julio Jones, which we would have loved Then that makes your worst receiver that much better That would have made whoever the last man was on your depth chart at wide receiver Whoever was at the bottom of your depth chart at wide receiver. That would have made him that much better Because you just added a Hall of Fame wide receiver to the room So yeah, somebody would have to leave. It's a tough business. It really is But that would make them so much better And again, what what the Titans give us a second round pick I think second They gave a second round pick for Julio Jones But anyway I do see what you're saying because he's saying that the Ravens continue to do that thing on defense defense defense Oh, yeah, bring us the people bring us the players We're gonna do everything that we possibly can to get these players on defense, but all offense is so I didn't quite work out. It just Sorry So I feel what you're saying completely. I get what you're saying completely and I I agree Again We remember the DeAndre's remember the Thiele's we gotta go through the whole list But it just with unique just last year, man Cuz we don't have to go through old examples when we go to a recent example just last year. We remember they Yeah, they won a unique in Gakue Didn't get them Vikings got him. He was like, ah, man, we can get them. Ah, there's more. There's another chance. There's another shot And they went for him again and my oh my what happened? We remember he became a Raven didn't work out so well Didn't go how we thought it would but Yeah, you get the point though so We'll see I don't think it's gonna happen But I feel what you're saying completely next question came from my boy Jeff C He said, hope you're in the family of doing well. We're doing swell splendid. Thank you Jeff He said what all the hate Lamar has been getting since the draft I've seen myself wanting him to succeed above all else while of course. I want the whole team to thrive I keep thinking to myself. Wow. I really hope Lamar can win the Super Bowl to try and prove everyone wrong It seems like recently I've been a bigger Lamar fan than I have been a Ravens fan And I've been around since around 2008. I went flacco was a rookie Just wondering if you have been thinking the same way always appreciate the content of your thoughts Keep up the good work and the positive energy Appreciate it Jeff. Um, yeah, I can understand why you would feel that way Me I just I mean that they go hand in hand Uh Lamar succeeding means that the about 9.9 times out of 10 him succeeding I mean the Ravens are succeeding. Uh, so they go hand in hand Now, of course with the um with the critics and the doubters and analysts and experts and haters and all that stuff Um, you do want Lamar Jackson. We do want Lamar Jackson to continue to do his thing Just continue flourishing and not not really worrying about what they say because Lamar I mean he'd be throwing in his little petty jabs here and there little petty responses here and there Which are you like, okay, Lamar, we see you. Um, but he continues to uh do it his way Um, so that's that's what we want to continue to happen And we just want him to take his game to another level this year and just It again, it's it's never gonna be enough. Nothing is ever gonna be enough for some people nothing nada zilch nothing Um, and again, we said that since 2018 since his rookie year Even if the Ravens go out and win the Super Bowl this year, which hopefully they do But even if they go out and win the Super Bowl this year won't be enough it won't People be like, oh, but he won a Super Bowl. Okay, no big deal Go get another one. Let's see if he can get two If he's really a great then he'll get another one But it's it's always gonna be something so um, I can't understand though how you could uh You you just really want Lamar to succeed so bad. He's just like man but Season is here now pretty much so He can start uh proving everybody wrong Yeah, you know a little over a month from now I always don't close with you next question came from my guy Joseph He said that ain't great even hope this email finds you in a family well I was looking at our active roster and I've been thinking about three vets in particular Greg Manson Michael Schofield and Eric Tomlinson Do you see the Greg Manson Michael Schofield or Andre Smith making 53 man roster since they have all been starters in their careers And have that experience in a league that has many offensive line injuries. Um Mans No, I completely forgot about him. I completely forgot about Schofield too. I can't even lie Um, but it's a possibility uh But Andre Smith. Oh no, Andre Smith. No, I think he's finally gonna be out Uh this year, but um, it's a possibility Not only because they have started experience, but Because like you said injuries happen, man Um, and he said now with Eric Tomlinson I am a huge fan of his since he came in last year and filled in for nick Boyle nicely He did do you see him making a 53 man roster? Oh, yes, he certainly did now with him. Oh, man. Um I think a lot depends on josh oliver. I think they'll just keep three a lot depends on josh oliver And it depends on what they do with ben mason. I still think they're gonna stash mason But we'll see but um, I think everything depends on those two right now I know there's been some chatter about uh wolf as well, but I think everything depends on uh, what oliver and what mason do He did come in nicely. He was a good blocker. He wasn't nick Boyle blocker, but he was a good blocker He wasn't asked to catch the ball like Harley at all. Um, so he wasn't really relied upon like that But it would be nice to have that's what I say josh oliver because he's that athletic titan And I think we could use another one of those uh to compliment mark andrews to compliment nick Boyle To just compliment the entire offense And just that that go to that okay, stay ready so you ain't gotta get ready So just in case we did go through injury again We would be equipped
