Don't feel bad But if you want to you can go to team keep it cleaned up not team keep it clean calm You can go to patreon.com slash engraving vids if you don't want to that's perfectly fine Let's get into this question. He said it What's up, bro? I just want to say I appreciate the content as a true Ravens fan. I appreciate you even watching it Thank you because again, thank you to y'all that watch because y'all don't have to watch But y'all do y'all shows love and y'all show support So thank you all for that because I seriously appreciate it He said Lamar Jackson had a lot of success at Louisville with kind of unproven receivers Travion Samuel Jalen Smith and a clutch tight end and co Hikaten also Louisville zone Reggie Bonafon who was converted into a receiver from QB This whole Ravens team looks like that same Louisville team as far as receivers being unproven But the teams were still winning lots of games with high scores on the board It would have been the same with the running back depth, but there were lots of injuries last year, of course But I feel as if the Ravens will make a good playoff run from this offense guaranteed and honestly a possible Super Bowl run It seems like everyone on this team is unproven But regardless if the Ravens didn't make any more moves, we will be good Our receivers are not that small, but we are expecting them to be Julio Jones or DK or even Odell Who's not even playing this year possibly. I just want your take on that. All right, so The unproven receivers and y'all know this is I never get tired of talking about The receivers when it comes to the Ravens. I love it. I could talk about it all day every day Yeah, they are unproven Ken they make a Super Bowl run. You said that they can make a good playoff run and Honestly a possible Super Bowl run. I mean anything is possible till it ain't possible no more But yeah, they are unproven But like we talked about before in a previous video with these guys This could be this could this is a big opportunity we got right here. It's a huge opportunity They could shut a lot of people up Rashad Bateman We've seen a lot of what he's capable of We've seen little bits and we haven't even seen a full Rashad Bateman We just seen a little bit of them, but it seems like we've seen a lot more of Rashad Bateman of What he can do more than what? Approach a Duvenay can do and I don't really put Wallace on that list. I mean technically he is but He got drafted right with Bateman too and he was like way behind on a depth chalk Obviously, we had still had Hollywood still have miles working and whatnot, but the thing with me The thing what I'm a little concerned is Because I know everybody saying hey, let the young guys play it. Let the young guys play Again, it's not our decision. We're not the coaches cold coaches make the decision but Why didn't we see especially when Sammy Watkins he got hurt? Rashad Bateman he was hurt and these they obviously got hurt at different times And with Miles Boyke, you know like Ravens. It just it just never clicked with him in Ravens But why didn't we see more of these guys like even last season like that? Like Devin Duvenay, he's been out there a lot But mostly on jet sweeps as a receiver. He don't really get used as a receiver too much James crochet. He's active for a while But then he's start moving to inactive later in the season. But why didn't the coaching staff play him more back then? Why didn't they play Duvenay more back then? I Feel like a lot of Ravens fans they they get upset when we talk about it But they don't think about what the coaching staff has done and what they haven't done as well with these receivers Now I'm hoping that now. Hey, all right, Sammy Watkins gone Cool, cool, cool, and it seemed like I mean he was gone for like most of us here anyway Boykin is gone And and Boykin he just he never got to really have much of an impact on his offense as a receiver anyway So why couldn't those guys leapfrog him? Is it just cut is it just cuz of his blocking cuz his blocking was that good to wear somebody who a lot of People look at it as a better receiver couldn't jump miles Boykin on a depth chart If all he was good for was blocking like so many people say why weren't a James Pro Shade or Devon Duven Why weren't they ahead of him like that? Why weren't they more involved like well Devon Duvenay was but like a pro shape It's just something to think about But Boykin is gone Watkins is gone Hollywood is gone So they got a shot They got a shot and training camp they've been been looking good I know he been hurt or as of this recording. He's been out the last couple days. This is Saturday August 6th at 7 7 o 9 p.m. Devon Duvenay, you know, I've I've been hearing a little bit more about him every now and then but we've been Hearing a lot about Pro Shade We've been a little lot about Pro Shade now I just hope that this isn't one of those Ravens Training camp hype type of things now I am mad at him getting training camp hype because it's better than him not getting it But I just hope it continues and it translates to games. I hope it's not just all he's having all this success in training camp He's going off and then come regular season. It's like oof because we've seen that before a lot as Ravens fans We hear these training camp hype stories of this player that player that player Oh, they going off. Let's go then regular season comes around and say So we're gonna see what happens. We're gonna see what goes down on the field But I With with the guys that the Ravens do have he mentioned he said they're not that small But we expected him to be Julio Jones or DK or even Odell who's not even playing. No, I'm well, they are pretty small What Devon Duvenay like 510 with James Pro Shade like wait like 510 5 9 Uh Tyler Wallace Feel like he's like 510 maybe 511 something like that and Rashad baby was 6 to he like no, he's 6-1 But the there's he's they they ain't no skyscraper receives anything like that or Mark Andrews But he's a tight end But yeah, I receive it. Well undrafted guys. They are tall all of them. They they are well most of them. They are tall But that's one of the reasons that I When I was hoping that they would get somebody I was hoping that they would get a bigger frame guy Because they just got like it seemed like they just got a lot of slot guys got a lot of inside guys and what now That's nice to have But I'm wondering who's gonna be that outside receiver to take that now. Is it gonna be James Pro Shade? I mean it's looking like right now looking like Rashad baby Number one receiver and James Pro Shade is the number two They saw everything that we've been him from camp Um, so we'll we'll see what happens with that But how you compared it to the Louisville teams? We're unproven guys at receiver I Know for Lamont. Yeah, they still they put up a lot of points there are a lot of times of Lamont there with a lot of drops though too and We just hope that's not the case with these guys now all the receivers and I mean they are receivers But these receivers that the Ravens have especially James Pro Shade and Devin Duvenay They are known for not dropping the ball That's what they're known for that is their specialty not drop because every receiver supposed to be known for catching the ball Okay, you're a seeba. That's your job, but Pro Shade and Duvenay known especially for not dropping the ball That's what they were known for in college and they had like the lowest drop percentage in college and it's okay So hopefully that continues it continues, but it's just gonna be important man. What what what I'm hoping All right Ravens, you're gonna use who you got. All right, cool Put them in positions to have success, please Greg Roman John Hubbell All the offensive step put them in positions to have success Play these guys to their strengths so because we've seen it a lot of times with Ravens receivers in the past to where We we never find out if they were really good or not We never really maximize Who these people are we never really find out their limitations? Now a couple of receivers at the Ravens. I feel I feel like the Ravens maximize I mean they could have done better with them too, but Hollywood Brown I feel like they really pushed him and he got a lot of opportunity You saw his strengths. You saw his weaknesses and I feel like I I was I was sad satisfied Again, I still feel like they could have done more with them and use them a little bit differently But I was satisfied with the Ravens use of Hollywood Brown and I really felt like I we got to know Hollywood Brown as a receiver another person who they did it with was um Tori Smith Tori Smith I felt like with him as well We got to know really know him as a receiver. We got to know his strengths. We got to know his weaknesses We got to know what he was good at. We got to know what he was bad at We got to know what he needed to improve on we got we really got to get a great feel for who Tori Smith was The best position for him to have success what that will be. We got to see that And you know what's funny? Well, and it is it a coincidence that whenever you have a conversation with somebody About who the best drafted and developed Ravens wide receivers are those two names come up those two names come up and I don't think it's a coincidence that those two names come up because the Ravens like really They really use those guys. They really did So I'm hoping that this year For whoever's out there on the they really use those guys It's it's so important because this sees again. I I'm Y'all know I'm I'm I would would have been a fan of Bringing in somebody who was like that, but okay it Time is ticking clock is ticking. We'll see but alright if it's gonna be these guys Please again maximize them. I Know not every single receiver gonna have 50 catches over a thousand yards ten touchdowns and we don't expect that But try to put them in matchups they can take advantage of create opportunities for them Play them to their strengths. You saw what these guys did when they were coming out of college Devon duvenated for the minutes put them in some opportunities for some screen passes some short passes that he could Take distance and whatnot James pro shade. He low to the ground But he got hops and he'll go fight for that ball Tyler Wallace big explosive receiver. He got hops. Ooh boy. That boy got some hops, man Rashad Bateman Chris route running super yak guy Give those guys those opportunities put put them where they can have the most success and do the most for your team Like again use their strengths use their strengths I Because I really I hate how like Miles Boykin for instance, that was one right there They never use them like that and always hit so many Ravens fans. Oh, man. He was sorry. He was this. He was that They didn't maximize miles Boykin. They did I know him and Lamar they was never really on the same page But my boys never got maximum and and now we just we stuck to left We left to being stuck with oh, I don't know. I don't we don't know how miles Boykin really was wasn't many many opportunities and That's happened with so many different Ravens receiver that they've drafted so many So again with the guys now We're gonna see We're gonna see hopefully like Lamar did a little boy He can have a lot of success with these guys and hopefully they can go on to the modern one his NFL husband He done got that already the MVP But hey now it's it's time for what's next We we want him to hold that that team trophy That Lombardi trophy to where him and everybody else the whole Ravens team They can say a we did it Like Next question came from another patient appreciate you Nazarene say what's good big bro? Hey, you see your boy. Mr. All pro cornerback Trayvon digs getting ate up in man coverage and training camp I did see it. I certainly did. I know we all done seen it by now And I felt so bad for him because not so many people were getting on him But he deleted his Twitter. I Was like wow, they wow They oof anyway, he said and there was more than one player doing it to him. He said funny how the media Ops was dog in Kyle Hamilton who was a safety getting burnt on one-on-one, which is expected Especially at a college, but not the all pro capital letters C o r n e r b a c k getting fried and something. He's supposed to be good at but hold up engraving broke CD lamb who runs a 4-5 and a 40? While Trayvon digs runs a 4-4. I want to throw this in there too that Rashad Bateman who casuals think is slow is also faster than CD lamb Message might be too long my bad But I love football so as originally was trolling the media ops this message ended up being about Bateman CD lamb's footwork is ridiculous his first step in all Bateman has that first step and the footwork Cowboys are wack with Cowboys are wack But that boy CD is a beast him and Rashad Bateman are getting the opportunity to be wide receiver one this year Yeah, cuz the Cowboys. Oh, yeah, they traded a Mari Cooper and he was that wide receiver one for them The red the Ravens they traded Hollywood Brown and he is that he was that wide receiver one for them So, yeah, you're right He said I noticed that a lot of Ravens fans like CD lamb. Also. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes I know him and him in Hollywood. They boys too, but anyway He said I just want to say that if Bateman is too slow What is CD then you don't have to run a 4-3 like Hollywood to be a deep threat Larry Fitzgerald is not fast But keep up that work bro had to address the Bateman critics. Whoo. Now, um, I was definitely somebody I ain't never called Bateman slow down. I haven't heard anybody say that But I just did not envision him as a deep threat But I know there was somebody who brought now 40 speed and football speed is different. They they are they are very different Because they don't necessarily Mean they don't necessarily go with each other like somebody could have a blazing fast 40, but their football speed could be like Oh, yeah, that ain't really nothing special But with a shot Bateman, I just never really envisioned him as a deep threat Especially based off of last year. Do we even see him really get many deep now We didn't really see him get any deep balls like that. I do remember the Lamar of the flea flicker in a Vikings game But the the the Vikings they played that really good. So they took that away But I can't really remember him getting really many deep shots like that And maybe that could be why I don't envision him as a deep. They like what Hollywood deep to oh, yeah That's the main thing they threw to him was a deep the deep shots But with a shot Bateman, yeah, he does have good speed So now with him being that that wire receiver one He's gonna have more opportunity to show it and we all looking forward to it The last question on this episode also came from another patient my guy Gareth He said a engraving I really hope you on your family having a great summer and pookie I just wanted to know what you would think about trading for Josh Jacobs. No, I Feel like that would be um if you got cut and they picked him up and Gus L was still being injured All right, cool, even though they got Mike Davis, but I I wouldn't be mad at that but a trade for him. I just I don't think It would be Really worth it. I mean Let's say they gave some cheap and like Anyway, let me keep going As you say stay ready so you don't have to get ready his cap hit is 2.1 meal That's not bad. As always never miss a video. Thanks, bro. Keep being great. Hashtag team keep it clean We are not great at all you are but need no He said PS I think Las Vegas is shopping them as he played a big amount of time in the Hall of Fame game Yes, yes, I agree because you don't just like and he was like one of the only starters playing You don't play no starter in the Hall of Fame game that much if you not shopping him That was to let teams know like a you see him You see him They declined his fifth year option to and they played him in the Hall of Fame. Yeah, they boys on the market But for Ravens No, I don't know I would much rather them like invest that whether it be those draft picks Salary cap I would rather them invest that into other positions on the offense cuz I think at running back They'll be straight like JK Dobbins. He should be back any day now Gus is gonna be a long time But they still got Mike Davis. They got Tyler Beatty. They got Justice Hill. They got Corey Clement Now Josh Jacobs. He nice now. He's a big back Nice little goal line back to short yardage back. He could play But I would just rather if they gonna trade for some I would rather them invested into another position like Raven
