 You to team keep it clean. What's up, baby EDC? What's up, my friend? Hey, I doubted you I for sure doubted you already know that I doubted you would actually close in the deal We had heard conversations between the Baltimore Ravens and Odell Beckham, Jr. Dating back to doing this past season and Those conversations obviously continued Ravens were everywhere where Odell was at and I likened it to when you liked this girl you're interested in her and She's showing some signs of interest back to you, but you're not completely sure So then the Ravens when they offered him the contract a couple days ago That was the Ravens version of asking the girl out but we didn't hear anything after that and I thought that the Ravens want to get turned down and then even this morning see you team keep it clean I know Ravens be watching the videos because literally this morning literally this morning we made the video talking about how Odell Beckham, Jr. wasn't looking good for the Ravens unless they made some like final little swooping some final crazy change up But it wasn't looking good for the Ravens because Odell Beckham, Jr. Was scheduled to meet with the Jets on Monday and they were to discuss his role What that would all that would be Discussed the Aaron Rodgers led offense everything that that wouldn't tell on Monday So he was gonna visit with the Jets Tomorrow, but the Ravens say whoa hold up there, buddy. It ain't happening no more and Hey, I'm sure we're gonna talk about the contract later the contract details are gonna come out later So we'll talk about that then before we get into this make sure y'all subscribe to the channel I love y'all. This is a reason for celebration again. This shouldn't be it. This shouldn't be it But this is a good start. We talked about a couple days ago How the Ravens they were starting to it seemed like they were starting to make a serious change Seemed like they were headed in the right the right direction when it came to this whole wide receiver thing with their Significant interest how serious they were interested in Odell Beckham, Jr But me like a lot of other Ravens fans We thought that this was gonna end in another heartbreaking fashion. We thought we were gonna get the message that said The Ravens made a competitive offer But Odell Beckham, Jr. Chose to sign with the Jets That's what a lot of us were expecting and if you weren't expecting that then a kudos to you But me and a lot of us were expecting that we did not expect this to end with Odell Beckham, Jr Signs with the Baltimore rate. What? That's crazy, but I like it now We know that the contract we don't know the details of it all we just know it's a one-year deal worth up to 18 million dollars now. I know initially that sounds crazy, right? Odell Beckham, Jr. Coming off the surgery. He ain't played in the whole year, but he got a one-year deal worth up to 18 million dollars. Oh my goodness Ravens. Are you crazy? Holy overpay now get this something that we've been talking about for years on here With the Baltimore Raven that we know it's not a one-year 18 million dollar deal. That's not it We're gonna find out what the the base of the contract is what the guaranteed money is if I had to guess I'm gonna guess like eight nine meal It's not gonna be no 15 meal guaranteed. I can't see that There's gonna be a lot of not likely to be earned incentives placed in this contract To where it's gonna be really hard to get that 18 meal now Something whatever the contract is I'm sure this contract is probably gonna be more than what the Jets would be willing to pay him and I would even I'm not a bedding man at all, but I would think That this contract would even be significantly more than what the Jets were gonna pay him if they would have got him Because the Baltimore Ravens since we know that's not a place where receivers go to thrive That's not a place where the receivers go and flourish. It's a place where receivers careers go to die You've seen it time and time again So in order for the Ravens to attract an attractive receiver They gonna have to spend a little more money than somebody else would remember the Jaguars last year The Jaguar everybody laughing at the Jaguars. Oh, man, they paid Christian Kirk all that money Jaguars literally reset the entire market but they had to They had to they pay Christian Kirk all that money they pay Z Jones all that money, but guess what both of them bought out for But they had to do that because while Jacksonville, Florida, Florida period is a lovely place to live It'd be a lovely place to play the team has it just hadn't been good for a while now They hadn't been good for a while So if the Jaguars were gonna attract an attractive free agent They were gonna have to spend a little extra money and they did that and it paid off for them in a major way Now the Baltimore Ravens when it comes to the wire see your position when it comes to offensive players Especially another reason because they don't know what's going on with Lamar What's going on with Lamar? See, you know, we talked about the risk involved The risk involved for the Baltimore Ravens really the risk involved for another player actually for both sides for both the Baltimore Ravens And the risk involved for a player joining the Baltimore Ravens who's an offensive player It's a lot of risk because you don't know what's gonna happen with Lamar This player could be joining the Baltimore Ravens and not knowing who's gonna be thrown on the ball And I always felt like that would be something that would turn the player off Especially a Odell Beckham, Jr. a player of that status But that cash that Ravens were offering him must have been significantly higher than any other offer that he got It must it had to have been Because when you don't know what's happening with your quarterback when the receiver doesn't even know he like this Literally doesn't know who's gonna be thrown on the ball unless we get another announcement a bigger announcement Let me check my phone real quick cuz Okay, I just I just had a check. I just had a check see if we got some Lamar news that that would shake everything up but anyway When you are a receiver of this caliber, especially really any receiver period but in the receiver of this caliber You want to know who's gonna be throwing you the ball Especially all the success that you've had throughout your career. You don't want to just go anywhere So there's a lot of risk there But I love that the Ravens finally took the risk. I Love that they went out and got somebody who's been like that now. Is he still like that? We gonna see obviously two years ago He could still play and now this year he's a year removed from football So it's gonna be a little adjustment period and whatnot But Odell Beckham, Jr. He'll fit right in because what he can do now, too He played in Todd Monkins offense before so there's that familiarity with the offense So he can help himself He can help Rashad Bateman He can help Nelson Aguilar He can help Devin Duvenay if he's still gonna be with the team He can help Tyler Wallace if he's still gonna be with the team He can help James crochet if he's still gonna be with the team And I don't say if they those guys are still gonna be with the team jokingly Because they seriously now things are really in jeopardy I always thought things were in jeopardy for James crochet even before they added Nelson Aguilar before they added Odell Beckham, Jr. Because I just I don't see the Ravens having him on the roster unfortunately. I Think he's gonna be elsewhere this season, but only time will tell with Tyler Wallace I don't think they really put too much putting too much effort in him either Even though it was it could have been a Telling story last year because they activated him off an injured reserve and they could have just left them But they activated them they brought him back and I was like, okay Ravens. I didn't think you were gonna do that So we'll see But this is nice. I like it because the Ravens they jumped out there for Odell Beckham, Jr. There's risk. It's a big risk because hey, you read Odell Beckham, Jr. throughout his career He's had he's missed a lot of time with health concerns So that's a risk But when he does play and again, we talked about this all week Ravens have firsthand experience when it comes to Odell Beckham, Jr. You're seeing him ball out both on the Giants Some on the Browns too, but definitely on the Rams in that game So they seen him up close and personal they know what he can do Now you got him So that's exciting to think about it is it's exciting to think about for me like over a Shaw Bateman Who he continues to show the flashes It's just about opportunity and just really opportunity. That's it and just being there Odell Beckham, Jr. You already know what he's capable of and It's I do think like Odell Beckham, Jr. He was respected around the league. I think it's gonna take a couple of weeks For him to earn that respect back But I think he'll be able to get it back quick as long as he's healthy as long as things are flowing along That offense is going. I think he will definitely be able to get that respect back quick You just make a couple plays in a couple weeks. It seems to be like, oh, okay. Oh, yeah, that's that's that old there Oh, okay. There he is But this is what we're talking about. You got Bateman. Now you got Odell It just makes everybody's job. You still got Mark Andrews and again with Nelson Aguil. We know about the drops Bateman he we even know about the drops with him even Odell Beckham, Jr. He got the drops too. Now you mark Andrews. He got his drops Everybody got their drops but for me Can you make plays? Can you make more plays than drops? If you can a have at it every receive ain't gonna catch every single ball that there is unless you layer Fitzgerald The only him but as long as you make a lot more plays than you dropping the ball That's the most important thing I was about to say Devon do they drop but not he don't drop the ball. He definitely don't drop the ball um, so this is This is nice I like it I like it and for me y'all know, I've been saying I want the Ravens to even go overkill I want I want them to do one one more. Give me give me one more Whether you're going in the first round because now nobody's gonna see that coming Nobody see that coming. Nobody gonna see Raven taking the first round or see it. No They ain't gonna see that coming Ravens go ahead do it do it Do it if you brave do it you you brave with this move Show me another brave move edc take a receive in the first or you know, it'll be even better Go get another one Go get another one How about that? Go get another receiver. That's like that now. Okay. Yeah, it probably ain't gonna be no, uh Oh my gosh, okay Okay, the details of the deal now came out. It is 15 million dollars guaranteed Wow Did we say that? No, no, no, I said I thought it would be what I said I said did I say nine or 10 mil? I think I said nine mil. No, did I say 10? I didn't say 15 mil guaranteed. I don't think I mean, I don't even remember what I said earlier in this video Or how much I thought it was gonna be but 15 million dollars guaranteed Okay Overpay it is an overpay in my opinion but You got to take those risks if you if you are a team And I and I can get why people would be frustrated with the with the money part But if you are a team with the Ravens reputation at wide receiver, you have to overpay you got no choice Because don't nobody want to come there and then again like we said earlier the Lamar situation Who would want to come there not knowing who's throwing them the ball? You got to overpay because of those two things you have to you got no choice So did the Ravens overpay in my opinion? Yes, they did But they had to if they really wanted them But finally Even though I know this is not the top guy, but finally The Ravens closed the deal on a significant wide receiver They finally did it Is he over 30? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah deal with injury. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah But again, we know Odell Beckham, Jr So I'm cool with the move man. Like I said, I don't think it should be it. I don't think the Ravens should be like, all right done now I think you still again, whether you trade for somebody Whether you draft somebody a stud too man, and I know I've heard a lot of people say oh this year's draft class There's a lot of number two receivers Okay, okay Like in those number two receivers make place if they can hey, I'm all for it Now another thing too that we got to talk about top monkey. How you gonna use Odell Beckham, Jr Well, you you didn't use them before and I think under top monkey. He had his best, uh, production him and Jarvis I believe But now it's like, okay, how you gonna do that in Baltimore? They should be a brand new offense and with this brand new offense being installed Everybody's got a shot Or at least that's the hope Everybody got a shot And we know like the pecking order the depth chart people it's gonna be set Rashal Bateman gonna be the guy Odell Beckham, Jr Probably gonna be the two maybe a 1a1b type of thing maybe a jk and Gus Edwards type of thing Then Nelson Aguilar on the slide Devin Duvenay still there and then after that is question marks Well if Duvenay still on the team because we know there was that talk, but we'll see what they do with Duvenay Whether they sound to an extension or We'll see we don't know what's gonna happen now But I like it. I really do So thank you EDC for closing this one Again, yeah, you had to spend some bread. Hey, but look Look how it feels EDC. I hope this feels good. I know this feels good. I know it feels a little weird I know it feels a little awkward to spend some money like this on offense. I know I know Yeah, I know it's weird. I know it's weird No, no, no, not even to spend this money on offense because obviously Ronnie Stanley got paid We're obviously the paracord got paid for a full bank. Mark Andrews got paid but to spend to spend this money at Y receiver I know EDC was like It's gonna take some little adjusting but look it's gonna be a little adjustment period for you EDC, but it's okay Get get used to it Get used to it, especially if If number eight is gonna be a guy. I know he ain't allowed to say his name But if number eight is gonna be a guy Yeah, let's spend that bread on offense now Let's let's let's change the way we do things Let's change it up. Let's switch it up. Well, this is a switch up for the better Team keep it clean. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all And like the Jetsaw when it comes to being in the run-ins for Odell Beckham, Jr. We out
