 When it comes to recently released free agents, no matter what position they play, Ravens fans, we can often look like some of the thirstiest fans in the NFL. Because immediately as soon as somebody is released, we're like, hey, can we get them? Can we sign them? Should we do it? Can we do it? And we think of all these different ways and these different possibilities with how they could fit in with the Ravens offense, defense, or maybe even special teams. And not that there's anything wrong with that because it's always fun to think about the possibilities. I encourage that. But in this case, with Latavius Murray, things were a bit different. And the reason I say that is because usually with whatever free agents we're thinking about adding to the Ravens, there's usually a divide. There's usually some people on the side where, oh yeah, I'm with it, let's sign them, let's get them on the team, let's bring them on. Then there's this other side where it's like, no, I don't want that player, uh-uh, he don't need to come here, what a waste, no. But with Latavius Murray, literally every single Ravens fan that I saw was with it, every single one. Now, what made it even crazier? Even Jameson Hensley, he tweeted the eyes emoji and said Ravens, like what even Jameson Hensley getting in this too? And then on top of that, under Adam Schefter's tweet, you know what, let's read Adam Schefter's tweet. It says, the Saints are releasing running back Latavius Murray per source. They asked for a pay reduction yesterday and he refused. Murray is coming off of his best season averaging 4.5 yards per carry and 7.7 yards per catch. Now, something to remember, he is a backup. This guy was not a starter, let's read those numbers again. He is coming off of his best season averaging 4.5 yards per carry and 7.7 yards per catch. So, Adam Schefter let it be known that he's out there now. He refused to pay cut, something that Brian McFarland brought up because Jonas Schaefer brought up a good point. Jonas Schaefer talked about, well, with his base salary, it was like 2.95 mil, I believe, somewhere around that ballpark. And the Ravens, they have a little bit over one mil and it was pretty much strapped. So could they even do it? Could they even afford him? And Brian McFarland said, well, that's a good point. But then you got to think about from Latavius Murray's standpoint, his point of view. Did he refuse a pay cut because he wanted all his money? He wanted to keep all his money that he possibly could? Or did he refuse a pay cut because he was like, hmm, James Winston or quarterback? He's cool, but then we got Taysum Hill or other quarterback. What is the direction of these saints? Yeah, this ain't for me. So we don't know. We don't know because Latavius Murray obviously hasn't shared that information. We haven't heard anything from his agent, but we do know that bottom line, he's a free agent. So he ain't on the same city more. Now, it would make perfect sense if the Ravens did bring him on. Why? Because he would be a significant third running back option for the Ravens. Now, one thing that was brought to my attention to and it kind of hurts my heart, it would be a very bittersweet type of thing because we certainly would have a nice third option at running back if they brought on Latavius Murray, but the impact of that. Shout out to my guy Michael Nelson in the comment section. He said, whatever running back they sign, meaning the Ravens, Tyson Williams will become that special teams running back guy since he's the youngest and least experienced. And that, it makes sense. It makes a whole lot of sense because yeah, he would be just that. Because a lot of times we think about, and we recently we've been thinking about like, yeah, that third running back, they would probably need to play some special teams. And, you know, if they bring on Levy on bail, Devontae Freeman, Todd Gurley, Adrian Peterson, Frank Gore, and I'm just throwing names out there. Those guys don't play special teams. They don't. So you would have to think that, yeah, they may put Tyson Williams on special teams, but we'll see how all of that works itself out. But one of the strange things, along with Jameson Hensley, him tweeting about it, of course, you know, Sarah Ellison, she did her thing as we know. Shout out to my guy Hoodie Raimi, he let us know too. But Phil Yates, he said, feels like the Ravens should give his agent a call soon. And even Colin Cowell, he responded to that and said, this, so he was agreeing with Phil Yates. So seems like everybody feels like this is a move that just makes so much sense and it just needs to happen. But will it? Let's look at Josina Anderson, her tweets from earlier, few hours ago, because she said that the Ravens were considering adding free agent running back, Trenton Cannon. And I looked at his tape and that dude can fly. He can fly. He ran that same sort of RPO type of offense in college and he is quick and he's fast. Again, there's a difference. But he got both. That's who he, out of there, quick. So he would fit and he can play return as well. So if they did bring him on, say for instance, with Devon Duvenay, cause we know that Devon Duvenay is their primary kick returner right now. Maybe that would allow Devon Duvenay to spend that much more time on offense and let him be the kick returner if he was even added to the regular roster. So we'll see what happens with that. Cause again, nobody's been signed yet. And even though nobody's been signed yet, some people have still been chilling in Baltimore. Because she also said, meanwhile free agent Devontay Freeman was still completing his medical workups for the Ravens today, pear league sources. So yes, that extended his visit, keeping an eye on if a deal gets to reach here. So Devontay Freeman said, I ain't leaving yet. Y'all gonna have to kick me out. I ain't going nowhere. But he getting his medical history updated and whatnot. All right, cool. So what about Levy on bail? What was he doing? What was going on with him? Well, she said, yes, Levy on bail, Devontay Freeman and Trenton Cannon, all of them boys. She said, we're still around today for Baltimore after working out before pear league sources. Cannon came to the facility today per source, things getting sorted out. So all those boys in the room right now looking at each other like, what's up? What's up? What you want? They just staring at each other because I'm sure there's a lot of tension there because all of these guys want a job, all of them. And they want a job with the Ravens. Had they not wanted a job with the Ravens? I'm sure they wouldn't have even showed up to a workout. They would have declined whatever workout the Ravens offered them. But they're there and they're still there. So shout out to Sherpy because in a previous video, the one we did about Devontay Freeman early today, a lot of people, some people said, yeah, for Devontay Freeman, some people said no, some people saying, yeah, for Levy on bail, some people saying no. But I liked her. I actually loved her approach to the whole situation. She said, give me both. I want both. And I was like, hey, no problem. No problem because I know a lot of people when it's come to Levy on bail. Biggest thing I hear. Well, one of the biggest things I hear. Oh, locker room problem. What? Locker room, that's the best you got for the reason why Ravens shouldn't sign Levy on bail. Locker room problem. Okay, Ravens don't, they should have never traded for Marcus Peters. Locker room problem. They should have never signed Steve Smith Sr. Locker room problem. So yeah, Mike Wallace was another guy too. They should have never signed him, huh? Locker room problem. Earl Thomas was a, oh yeah, that's a bad example. Anyway, with Levy on bail, that wouldn't even be my biggest concern. No, it wouldn't. Now Levy on bail, another point that a lot of people have brought up with him is that even as a running back, we know how excellent of a receiver he is and we do. He is a phenomenal receiver. My guy JT brought out a good point. He said, hey, with Levy on bail, just in case something happened to one of your receivers, you could even use him there. Cause you know he got the hands, he got good height, he could do it. And I'm like, well, yeah, he can. We know that. We've seen it, especially Ravens. And a great point that he made when comparing Levy on bail to Devonte Freeman, he said with Levy on bail, he knows what it's like to show up in big games. And he brought up Devonte Freeman with him on the Mr. Simon that led to a fumble in the Super Bowl. But Levy on bail, he knows how to show up in big games. And he already got that AFC North attitude. He knows all about it. So he would fit right in. And I was like, oh, well, okay, good points there. Great points there. And when I was watching him earlier today, like I said, he doesn't have the fastest acceleration, doesn't have the fastest top speed either. But he is able to make quick decisions. He wouldn't be able to dance back there, but he also doesn't have to dance in the backfield. He knows how to make quick decisions. So he would actually be able to still work in this Ravens offense. It'd be a little bit different, little bit different, but he could still make it happen. Now with Devonte Freeman, something about them, a lot of kickback that I've seen from the people who don't want Devonte Freeman. They talk about his injury history. The injuries, yes, he has had plenty of injuries. Yes, yes, yes, that's true. But at the same time, he was a feature back before. If he came to the Ravens, he would not be a feature back anymore. This right now was Gus Edwards show. And one thing that gives me confidence now that the Ravens will actually really feature, Gus Edwards is obviously one because J.K. Dobbins is gone, but two, because they paid him already. All that contract pettiness and that game that it seemed as if it was being played with Gus Edwards, that's behind them now. Cause I really do think that they, with Gus Edwards, they held him back. So they wouldn't have to pay him all that money. I really do think that there's been plenty of times where Gus Edwards has been going off, getting these big runs, and then Ravens say, oh no, come here, come sit down, come have a seat, come take a break, come chill for a minute. It seems as if they hold that production down. So when it came time for Gus Edwards to get paid, they could be like, oh, but look at your numbers. Your numbers are cooler or whatnot, but that's not top running back numbers right there. Oh, your numbers, yeah, they cute, but you think you deserve all that money? Nah, so they got them for cheap. But again, now that part is already out the way. They signed them to a deal worth five mil per year, five mil per year. And while, yes, running backs aren't valued the same as they once were, still, that's a steal. But anyway, Gus Edwards should be featured. So Devonte Freeman, he would not. So all the injuries that he got with that absolutely wipe away any chance that he would have for injury, no, but it was lessening. And again, like I said, when I watched him, the film on him even in New York last year with the Giants, he still got that burst. He still got that speed. So again, wouldn't be mad if they added him too. Now, if they are gonna add one or even two of these running backs, some roster spots gotta open up. And with Canon, I could envision them putting him on a practice squad. And he may be be a game they call up if need be. But with Levy on bail or Devonte Freeman, those two, whichever one they signed or if they signed both, will probably head straight to the active roster. But this has been a very busy day for the Ravens in their running back situation. Literally any second now, we could hear that any of these guys, or all of these guys got signed. And so we'll just be waiting and seeing how this whole thing sorts itself out. So team, keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. I love you all. Thank you all for listening. And as this crazy saga continues, we will keep you updated and informed and educated as much as we can. We out.
