 So team keep it clean before we start this video. I got to give a really really special shout out to my guy Nick Wallace Nick Wallace he currently going through a couple things right now But I just I want to let you know that I appreciate you man. I appreciate you still despite everything Always showing love always showing support So I hope everything turns around for you man. I hope everything gets better for you And I hope you can pull through What it is that you're facing right now? So I got a lot of love for you. Thank you. Shout out to you. Shout out to your wife Shout out to your whole family man. So I appreciate you a whole lot man But what I wanted to talk about today is with Odell Beckham, Jr. and the Baltimore Ravens It's like they're in an upside-down world or something and the reason I say this is because Exactly what I was thinking was going to happen to the Baltimore Ravens. It ended up happening to the Jets Because and work literally word for word word for word verbate them exactly what we thought we were gonna hear about the Baltimore Raven because We know the Jets were interested in Odell Beckham, Jr. The Ravens were interested in Odell Beckham, Jr. But the Ravens they obviously closed the deal But what I thought and I expressed it with y'all so many times before What I even even the day of the day that Odell Beckham, Jr. got signed we talked about in the video that we did it Wasn't looking good and we thought that this is what we're gonna hear We thought we were gonna hear the Baltimore Ravens. They they really were interested in Odell Beckham, Jr. They even made a competitive offer To Odell Beckham, Jr. But he decided to go with the New York Jets, but listen to this Listen to the wording. This is from Mike Florio from pro football talk I know a lot of Ravens man not big Florio, but anyway, it says the article is called how close were the Jets to signing Odell Beckham, Jr. He said as of last Sunday receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. Was ready to visit the Jets on Monday then suddenly the Ravens signed Beckham with no visit to the Jets So if the Ravens hadn't moved so quickly to close the deal, what would have happened here? It goes listen This is the part Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports that the Jets made Beckham a very competitive Contract offer That's the one right there. That's the one that I'm sold and we're so used to hearing About the Baltimore Ravens We've heard that so many times. It's like whenever I see that I automatically associated with the Baltimore Raven because it's happened plenty of times and I respect the the effort in trying but there'd be so many times we heard that in Obviously the the player went another route. They went to another team So it's nice to be on the flip side of things. It's nice to be on this side of hearing that phrase Because Ravens one they got they got the guy and Like I know we've talked about this a lot But it's something that's worth celebrating because it just don't be happening like this It's like and and and last year Last year was one of the worst and last year was one of the craziest times with that actually Because it happened At least two times on the defensive side of the ball. So that that was the shocker right there twice on the defensive side of the ball last year because remember last year Bobby Wagner. Oh Bobby Wagner inside linebacker Bobby Wagner and the Ravens they were caught them They were like a Bobby like look, we love you We we trying to bring you on board man You would be a perfect fit and I'm over here thinking Well, yeah Ravens could easily sell Bobby Wagner. He's an inside linebacker. They could be like look You remember Ray Lewis. Yeah. Hey, we know that you've been a good inside linebacker, too We a defensive team. Oh, I thought it was a four-shore thing and the Ravens even offered him more Guaranteed money then he got with the Rams There for the more guaranteed money. So you when you get more guaranteed money, you got a hit less incentives To end up getting a getting closer to the max your deal There's still gonna be some incentives or whatnot but you got more guaranteed like they offered you more guaranteed money and He said no He's from the West Coast and whatnot. So we get but still they made a competitive offer But it didn't happen didn't work out And then even last year too it it went past competitive offer for Zadaria Smith if we all recall Because in the legal tampering period, which I still hate I can't stand it In the league they need to just get rid of that. Just just ask stat But in the legal tampering period the Ravens had came to an agreement with Zadaria Smith So everybody like oh, yeah, yeah, it's a nice reunion. He's coming back to town. Okay. We got a pass Russia. Let's get it but then couple days past And we hadn't heard anything about Zadaria Smith officially signing his deal with the Baltimore Ravens The stuff was weird And it was like, okay What's going on with Z? What's happening? So a couple days pass and in time pass and then it was like, oh, well We started hearing rumors that well, maybe maybe the Zadaria Smith ain't really feeling the deal anymore We were like, huh, but I thought they agreed to But I thought this thing was set in But I thought Zadaria Smith was getting ready to return to be a Baltimore And it just didn't happen and then he ended up taking his talents to the Minnesota Vikings so I guess he really he really wanted to be in purple but Just not with Ravens purple. I guess that the tone was it's a little too different for him. But anyway So that was another one and then it turned out with that one that the deal that he would have had with the Ravens It was a better offer than what he got with the Vikings so Maybe he was just like one of them people where and it's unfortunate But where again, I gotta gotta link it to a relationship where it's a guy that likes a girl But this girl she really likes a different guy. She doesn't like the guy that really likes her But she likes a different guy. So the guy a likes the girl, but the girl she likes guy B and She will use guy a To try to make guy be jealous Because that happens sometimes we see it all the time in it happens in a lot of relationships, but it happens in NFL too to where The girl she may be available She may be available. Nobody's talking to her. Nobody trying to hit up or nothing. Nobody nothing Then all of a sudden she started talking to guy a and then guy be like, oh, I know you oh, man Maybe she is attractive We see it with NFL free agents every single year. It happens all the time When these guys are there'll be free agents just sitting out there in free agency. Nothing's happening. They're just looking around waiting Chilling their free agency Nobody interested no offers. No visits. No Then team a they like a we're gonna bring in such and such for a visit They bring them in but then team bees like oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, they brought him in We gotta bring him in for a visit too. Oh, we interested now then team seeding team deal. It happens all the time We always see that so I Guess maybe Zadaria Smith was trying to make the Vikings a little bit jealous Well, I don't know what it was. But I mean, I think it went a lot past jealousy Because the Ravens were like, hey, we got our guy back because you know last year was a reunion year They brought back Michael Pierce, too Anyway, so yeah, that's that's just life in the NFL man But again back to Odell Beckham, Julian this whole thing I am very happy that the Ravens are actually on the right side of the whole contract offer But just wanted to share that with y'all and again, the reason I wanted to share with y'all was because of the the wording very competitive offer That that that was the sole purpose of this video because that that phrase Us Ravens fan we just know about it so much But this time we're on the good side and I love it team keeping clean I love y'all again special shout out to my god Nick Wallace. We love you man We appreciate you and we rocking with you man. We have
