 You right there watching this video. I love you. I love you and I appreciate you and I hope that you are having a really really really good day Anyway, YouTube team keep it clean. What's going on? It's engraving here with another video and the Ravens They were very very busy yesterday, and I mean the whole NFL world was very very busy But if if you weren't paying attention there was some stuff that kind of slipped through the cracks Now while we were all hyped over the schedule coming out and more specifically with the Ravens schedule coming out We found out early in the morning that they were gonna be playing the Raiders They were gonna start off their season on Monday night football Primetime the world is watching the very last game of the week And I know there was some people that like oh man I don't I'm not gonna feel like waiting I'm not gonna feel like waiting through Thursday and Friday and Saturday and Sunday and all Monday And I told them like hey It's May right now You got four more months to wait before football starts anyway, so I think you'll be just fine But anyway, we were all hype thinking about the different games that we might go to and When we saw the tickets for them Raiders games in the different games We might not go to But it was exciting. It's a very exciting time and like we said yesterday This is the last sort of Injection of things of excitement that the NFL puts in the fans because this is the last thing We've gotten through the first and biggest waiver free agency We've gotten through the draft and we've gotten through the schedule release. So now now we wait But anyway yesterday the Ravens were very busy and even today too But yesterday if you weren't paying attention, like I said, it might have slipped through the cracks Now while we were all thinking about the schedule the Ravens, they were busy Signing their draft picks and the first draft pick that they signed was mr. Rashad Bateman Why receive it from Minnesota course y'all know his story already But he signed his rookie deal and The thing that I love about the rookie wage scale is that it makes life so much simpler for everybody It makes life simpler for everybody that's involved You know exactly how much money you're gonna get paid By exactly where you were drafted in whatever around it's already set There no discrepancies. There shouldn't be any arguments. It's straightforward. You already know except if you're a bolster, brother You know the bolster brothers those dudes are they divas over there? They like holding out and oh, no, I want this No, I want that You got drafted where you got drafted just keep it moving. But anyway Rashad Bateman signed his rookie deal and with him being a first-round draft pick It is a four-year deal with the fifth-year option. So that means once it comes in that third year Then the Ravens can choose whether they decide or after the third year the Ravens can choose whether they decide to pick up his fifth-year option or not and With teams picking up the fifth-year option for different players or not picking up the fifth-year option for different players It doesn't it's not all black and white Just because a team does pick up the fifth-year option doesn't mean that the player is gonna stay just because a team doesn't pick up The fifth-year option. It doesn't mean that player is gonna leave Because what they could do they could pick up the fifth-year option and not even resign a player after that Or what they could do is not pick up the fifth-year option and sign a player to an extension early So it all just depends on how the team wants to operate with the player So Rashad Bateman, he signed his rookie deal a doubt fail way the Ravens other first-round draft pick He has not signed his rookie deal yet So it's coming but I would expect everybody to be signed by Probably by Saturday, maybe Sunday. I don't this this is not gonna be some long drawn-out thing They're gonna sign those deals and they're gonna sign them pretty fast because the Ravens I mean he wasn't the only one that ended up signing his deal They also got a Sean Wade the corner back the slot corner back. They sign him to a deal They got Ben Mason the tight end slash full back slash tight end slash full back So they signed him to a deal. So he's locked up and also Dalen Hayes The outside linebacker. So they getting they moving through the class and they don't have some huge enormous big rookie draft class That they need to sign But they're moving so again, this shouldn't take long. It shouldn't be a long process though I don't expect any holdouts. I don't expect any of that and with them It's very important for these guys to sign their deal So they can really like fully participate in whatever it is because you don't like if if you don't sign your deal and You trying to play for the team and you go out there and you practice into something you get hurt Oh, they didn't sign a deal and I don't think Ravens will do anything like grime anything like that be like Oh, you know what you guys you got hurt and you didn't even sign your deal. So we're not gonna pay No, they wouldn't do anything like that They definitely wouldn't They they're not a class list organization But these guys they want to get on the contract before they do anything physical whatsoever But the Ravens the their draft picks weren't the only guys that they were signing Today it was announced about 15 minutes ago because I'm recording this at 1122 oh exactly 15 minutes ago that the Ravens signed nine undrafted rookie free agents and This is something to pay attention to because the Ravens usually usually every year They have an undrafted rookie free agent on their roster Now probably the most impactful one over the past couple of years. I would say Was Patrick McCurry Patrick McCurry somebody undrafted rookie free agent. I believe he went to Texas. I believe I'm not 100% sure on that But came in mass score went down and that Monday night football game against the Rams and it was looking very scary But Patrick McCurry came in and he picked up with mass score left off and he did a phenomenal job Now last year there's a bit of a struggle, but it was a bit of a struggle for the entire offensive line Not just Patrick McCurry But shout out to him because he came in again undrafted rookie free agent guy So rounds one through seven came and went he didn't get picked up But he didn't let that stop him and neither did the Ravens and they did their thing So the Ravens they signed nine undrafted rookie free agents and let's just go through the list They signed safety Ardarius Washington from TCU now This is a guy that I'm gonna be watching some film on very soon because I have heard a lot of good things about Ardarius Washington I've heard a lot of people talk about Ardarius Washington. Shout out to the light going out But people love this guy. They love this guy And they they say that he is a baller and we're very surprised that the Ravens were able to get this guy as an undrafted rookie free agent somebody else a quarterback Kenji Bahar offensive tackle Adrian Ealy Tight end Tony Paul's in one of my guys in the comment section literally every single video He's saying graven. We need to talk about we need to talk about Tony Paul We need to talk about him because he is a baby grunk. He's a baby grunk Okay, we're gonna see we're gonna see I haven't got a chance to look at him yet But when I do trust me you you will know And then defensive tackle Xavier Kelly running back Nate McCrary offensive tackle Foster Sorrell wider Civa Dante's I his last name. I cannot pronounce. I'm gonna try it Dante's Silenco now. It's funny because one of my guys asked a Question from subscriber about him months ago Months ago. He asked a question from subscriber when should the Ravens pick him up at wider Civa Because he talked about how him and Lamar Jackson they went to the same high school together So they got that connection and you know Lamar, he's one of them people that remembers his people even from way back so shout out the day is from popping up to but he um he yeah, they went to boy and beach hide together and The Ravens picked him up. So he already got a little insider again Benjamin Victor. He from Papa. No, I believe and like Some people get mad when I say Florida Ravens like somebody commented on a video the other day They're like, what are you guys talking about when you say Florida Ravens Ravens been a thing way Before anything had to do with Florida, man And I'm like the reason I say that is because literally everybody on the team is from Florida everybody So and I love it. I love it. But anyway So we'll see what happens with that and they also got a outside linebacker Barrington Wait, so the Ravens have been making some moves They've been doing some homework and they've been doing some research and they picked up some guys That they could they feel could contribute this all season and give them a chance to try to make the roster So we'll see how it all works itself out. Um, and we will be going over these guys individually I'm looking at some different film on some of them, especially guys like Ardarius Washington And tony paulian as well. Uh, and maybe even don't a ceiling that that last name. I'm I'm so sorry um, but anyway Team keeping clean Ravens been busy. We've been busy on this uh, too. Uh, but I love y'all. I appreciate y'all and Just like the schedule is now officially because again that that league schedule was kind of on point But it had a little tiny things missing in there. But anyway, just like the official schedule is We out
