 Linda bomb as you mentioned a joe boo the linebacker that they decided to go get I think you look at it You say well where they replacing Hollywood brown at there's no receivers all they got is a shot Bateman that we can look forward to But I'm gonna tell you this There's a kid named Devon Williams Devon Williams From Oregon wasn't drafted. He was signed as an undrafted free agent And I understand why cuz he's got you know, they got to manage him a certain way, but I promise you if they get him, right? Oh my god And knowing that T Martin is there as a receiver coach along with Keith Williams Two guys that can mentor to that particular kid I think Lamar Jackson will be satisfied if they could keep him Straight they just keep his mind, right? That'll be a real interest when I know you say undrafted But it's not like that. He just got some other stuff that he was dealing with or if Devon Williams like that sign me up So YouTube team keep it clean what's going on is engraving here with another video and in this video Thank you all for your patience because I have been hearing so many people What do you think about Devon Williams? Hey, we just signed Devon Williams. You're gonna let us know about him Hey, Devon Whitman, we might have our guy. He might be a diamond in the rough I've been hearing so much talk about Devon Williams that I finally got an opportunity to see for myself And I was happy with what I saw and I was just envisioning like man for Devon Williams Y receiver six five two hundred pound wide receiver How could he fit in with the Baltimore Ravens and one of the first things I did when I watched him? I envisioned a scenario where the Ravens have the ball and they just they just need a big play They just need something because the offense may have been going a little bit slow early on and they just need a big Play to just give them a spark So it may be second or third and long Lamar Jackson drops back the protection is good for now But then some of the past Russia just he creeps through so Lamar Jackson scrambles out to his right and he throws it up And he got Devon Williams in a cornerback one-on-one and that would be a matchup That I would have trust Devon Williams to make that play that jump ball that fifty-fifty ball that the Ravens Just need to incorporate so much more of He would give you an opportunity to do it That was one of my favorite traits about him when I watched him the fifty-fifty ball He is not afraid to jump up and go get it those contested catches He specializes in those he will box you out as if you're a corner And he will make sure that he gets his hands on the ball and not you So I just I love that and I just feel like the Ravens as far as the fade routes and the jump balls And I know there's something something that we said before on here that we just want to see the Ravens Incorporate more of that into their offense and that could be on Lamar and that could also be on Greg Roman But it needs to be Incorporated a lot more because it could take simple things simple fix the simple tweaks could take this Ravens offense a long way So with Devon Williams He plays big but also He can also play a little smaller too now and when I say play small I don't mean that as a diss to him But what I mean when I say that is when I watch him He's a little bit twitchy now to them because he will catch the ball sometimes he gets somebody little stiff arms Hey, I wasn't the highest man winner, but I'll show you what it looks like. I'll put you on a trophy But then he would he would turn up feel sometimes he'll try to Try to make somebody miss but he has very very good control of his body, especially for somebody who is six feet five Tall individual right there. Um, but what he could add to this offense, man Just a yak the yak. That's something that he likes to do. He is not afraid of contact He will initiate contact as a matter of fact sometimes too, but then I wondered like man What happened to how can this person this size who was actually a five-star recruit? How could he go? Undrafted I was just very Concerned about that and I wondered like what's going on. What did I miss and I'm sure I don't have all the information as to why he went Undrafted, but some of the things I gathered At first I looked at the the situations Because I know there was a little bit of confusion on where he was gonna commit to when he was coming out of high school Since he was so highly recruited And I heard some Florida State there was some stuff with the Oregon Doug It was just a lot of confusion But he ended up going to USC and he was at USC for two years and it looks like there was a lot of it was it was underwhelming His numbers that he put up was were underwhelming the first year USC Play for games had four receptions 87 yards in a touchdown and then He was at USC in 2019 as well and he Just played in one one one game one catch for 11 yards and I know um, I believe that's when he entered the portal but there With USC his situation, I'm sure he wasn't a big fan of his Situation because he had a lot of guys in front of him He had of course the the first round draft pick the guy who won Drake a hundred a hundred thousand dollars or half a much He went off of that bet that he placed on Drake London being the first receiver taken. He was behind him He was behind Michael Pittman a monitor st. Brown. So he has some guys at USC that were They were taking away his playing time. Oh, and well, he wasn't taking away theirs So a lot about football a lot about these players So much depends on being in the right situation and for a lot of players that have had success Whether on the collegiate level or on the professional level So much is about the being in the right place at the right time Because we've seen it time and time and time and time again where this player will be talented coming out of college It's like, oh, man, it's those real deal They go to a poorly run franchise or a poorly run organization Everything fails Everything falls apart and that person's career is literally turned upside down in a bad way and Sometimes they recover but a lot of times they don't because in the NFL It does really stand for not for long and whether you a first round pick you drafted high in the first round You drafted late in the seventh whatever it may be you have to be at the right place at the right time Or else everything can crumble You look at just to use these guys in this as an example and I know these are two extremes But you look at Josh Rosen. He was drafted very high in the first round I want to say he was seventh overall I believe but whatever wherever he was drafted he was drafted high in the first round So many people like oh man, this guy's gonna be an amazing quarterback and it just Didn't work out didn't work out and the Cardinals moved on right away. He went to like the 49ers I think he went to the Bucks He went to the Dolphins and I don't know what he is right now Then you look at a guy like and again, I know these are extremes, but they're just examples and you look at a guy like Tom Brady drafted in the sixth round Went to the right situation and everything worked out wonderfully for him better than wonderfully so So much matters on where you are and if you at the right place But he felt like he was in the wrong place back to Devin Williams. So he transferred to Oregon So in 2020 he just played in five games 15 catches 286 yards to touchdowns But then in 2021 So last year played in 10 games have 35 catches 557 yards in four touchdowns And when you look at those numbers the numbers are very Underwhelming because teams I'm sure teams and teams look at more than numbers But NFL is a production based business and if they're looking at you As a college receiver, they're gonna wonder how your production from college can translate to the professional level And you can take your production and add it to theirs, but if you don't have much production Then that can decrease your value to them and how your viewed as a prospect and as a player and just as potential So he didn't end up going drafted and I know it's for a lot more reasons than that I know I've heard a lot about that his quarterback play It definitely didn't help it the situation at all his quarterback play was not the best So that's another scenario that could possibly benefit him because we and I believe I believe that the Ravens They signed his quarterback to so that could either help her But no that could help because if the Raven sign his quarterback Just envision this scenario They're in training camp then training camp and Lamar is obviously running with the ones Tyler Huntley He's running with the twos and whoever else is going to be running with the threes but Devin Williams, he has his quarterback and His quarterback and him even though in college is a little off, but they know each other. They have chemistry So his quarterback is throwing to him and he's making these plays with against the third team And he's starting to turn some heads and people keep hearing Who's that? It's like, oh, that's oh, that's the older 65 got a 65 receive. Oh, okay. I number two Okay, well not number two the title honey number two, but you get what I'm saying. Oh, that's him. Oh, okay. Nice Oh, okay, but he did it against the third string though coaches. They they they hear about Devin Williams They like oh, you know what come here We want you to go practice against the second string is we gonna move you up Just just for the day We just want to see what you got if you really like that like that go ahead and practice against the second stringers Say for instance, he makes plays against the second strings. Oh, okay. It's alright and he consistently makes plays against the second stringers It's like, hmm. Okay, you know what? All right, that's that's cool. You did it against the third stringer. You did it against the second stringers How about you try against the starters? You see Marcus Peters over there. Oh, you know him I know you do. Oh that you know Marlon Humphrey. Oh, yeah, yeah physical corner, huh? Yeah Go try that against them. We just want to see what you got And if he could give them a run for their money if he could really apply some pressure To the Raven secondary as a whole going against corners going against the safeties He can make a name for himself with the Ravens and because he's because he's in a tough situation Because I'm not gonna sit up here and try to sugarcoat it like oh just cuz he's six five and he's He's a little twitchy for his size now, which is a good thing I'm not gonna sugarcoat it because we know what the Raven situation is we know their history So he has a lot stacked against him. He already had a lot stacked against him coming out of college He went undrafted, but now he enters the league as an undrafted rookie free agent So he has a lot stacked against him right here right now, and I hope he makes it Well, I really hope he makes it but it's going to take a lot of work and extra work too because As an undrafted guy You have to do more than the required You can't just do the basic the minimum and expect to get by no the guys that are drafted they can barely do that So as an undrafted guy, you really got to go with the extra amount of proof to people Hey, I should have been drafted, but I wasn't but let me show you what I can do now Something that does give me a lot of confidence and shout out to my guy JT for pointing this out Something that gives me a lot of confidence With Devon Williams and with a lot of the other guys that are on the team at the wide receiver position And anybody that the Ravens may have chosen to bring in Keeshawn Johnson mentioned it as well T Martin and Keith Williams Those two they have an eye for talent at wide receiver and I would have to think that The Baltimore Ravens who brought in those two Who both specialized at the wide receiver position? I would have to think that the Ravens consulted with them Before they chose to bring in the wide receivers that they chose to bring in I would I would have to think that Because it's like why wouldn't they it only makes sense. It only makes sense So not only would they help as far as the consulting is like a this guy a that they oh, he went undrafted really Okay, you know what? Let's bring him in trust us But not only the process of recruiting him, but also developing him the process of really trying to pull out that potential and Try to help him take it to the next level try to make him make that transition and again It's not gonna be easy. It is not going to be easy But with those guys on staff Things they seem to be headed in a better direction Than what it had been when they weren't on staff Ravens, of course still got some issues that they got to get through They still got some growing pains that's gonna come with this whole their whole just vibe at wide receiver but It's part of the process It's part of the process if you've been struggling with something for such a long time for forever You bring in somebody to help you You ain't gonna turn it around like that You certainly are not and it shouldn't be expected that you're just gonna turn it around like that But if you are going to turn it around then you have to be willing to make some changes You have to be willing to do some things differently. You have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone. I remember that But they're going to be some they're gonna be some ugly times in the process and that's fine as Long as you getting through those ugly times So with somebody like a Devon Williams the odds are stacked against him like crazy, especially with the Ravens organization But I wonder I wonder because I'm sure he probably had his options as a with different teams He could have chosen to sign with but I wonder if the Ravens presented him with a Devon look We Have a Rashad Bateman. We got a Devon Duvenay. We got a James crochet. We got a Tylen Wallace. Got a Benjamin Victor We got some guys here already, but We don't have a you and You see look look at our free agency look at our draft We didn't bring in any wide receivers and in fact Sammy Watkins. He went to Green Bay. We traded Hollywood Brown Miles Boykin. He's with the Steelers now So we we lost three receivers We lost those guys We didn't bring anybody yet So there's a spot there's an opportunity for you if you're really like that if you are everything that we've heard about you and stuff That we've seen from you, too We're gonna do everything on our end to try to possibly pull out your best potential But we need you to do everything on your end because we want to see the your best potential We don't just want you to be a potential base wide receiver. We want you to be that guy one of those guys like Lamar said So what's it gonna be? Because you got to think about it Guys wide receivers Y'all already know how it is with the with the Ravens a wide receiver would have to for them to get a quality wire receiver They may have to overpay Because a lot of guys are so I want to come here because they know There's no about the system and then what Holly will put in that stuff out publicly too Even though he had already put it out publicly like two years ago And a lot of people already knew and even this was even before Greg Roman and why receive has been an issue with the Ravens Even before Greg Roman even stepped on the field So it's a lot deeper than just Greg Roman But that's a whole another topic for another day So Ravens would really have to show like he would have a legitimate opportunity But again, it's one thing to show it. It's another thing to actually do it And it's another opportunity. It's another thing to actually give that real opportunity So I'm interested just this is such I mean every every single offseason is but this is such an interesting offseason for the Baltimore Ravens because This is such a huge turning point in the organization It's such a huge turning point with everything going on with the uncertainty of Lamar Jackson Them trading away Eric the cost is first first not only first-round pick but his first pick overall as the official Ravens GM Ravens and them getting rid of all the receivers that they drafted in 2019 as a matter of fact and Them not even taking a receiver after trading their receiver So it is it's just so many different ways that this the rest of this offseason could go And you know, we're gonna be with it every step of the way But it's just I'm so like I'm very very curious and excited to see how things are addressed Do the Ravens go to old-school Ravens route like a lot of people are thinking like oh, we're gonna get one of them Older veterans here comes Julio. Oh We're gonna get one of the guys who's not a older veteran, but what do you really take us to that next level Jarvis Landry? He will be solid Will we get a speedster to replace a Hollywood brown like a willful or who's there been a lot of talk about but also There's been minimal talk about with the Shawn Jackson So what are the Ray or the all the Ray is gonna be like, you know what? We going young We going young we rolling with our guys that we got that we Drafted and we're gonna run with some undrafted guys What are the Ravens gonna do? It's such a tough question, but again, it's a fun question to think about We've had so many conversations with so many different people in a comment section on Twitter and DMs or whatever About what are the Ravens going to do and the fact of the matter is we don't know We just really do not know but it's fun to think about as far as Devon Williams Again, he has an opportunity here He has an opportunity here because of how the Ravens have moved or really haven't moved this offseason at the wide receiver position So he has a real shot, but he just got to show up And like I said, he'll have to do extra work in order to make it But it is not far-fetched that he does it is not impossible that he does but it's gonna take a lot So we'll see how it goes. I'm rooting for rooting for Hope everything goes well, and I hope that he ends up showing now and the potential That potential that we saw from him at Oregon it wasn't it wasn't drawn out of him a hundred percent, but we saw that potential and Let's let's get back to the reasons why he was a five-star recruit There's five star crews. They don't just grow on trees when especially for somebody that size, too Hopefully Ravens can pull out that potential Shout out to the Ravens
