 Team keeping clean. It's the first of the month. Maybe April like literally flew by it seemed like we were in April for like maybe three or four days And that was it and now we already in May But I hope y'all are doing really really really good now I apologize in advance because I know we said we were gonna wrap up the draft these and whatnot that the Baltimore Raven selected this year and we will but I had to put that on pause because this is of the essence Patrick Queen fifth year option Ravens are forced To give us an answer on this within the next 24 and change hours because The deadline to pick up or decline the fifth year option for 2020 first round draft picks Is when may second that's tomorrow That's tomorrow And I got a reminder of that because I saw browns They picked up the fifth year option of of jedrick willis And I saw some other guys getting their fifth year options picked up And then I did see one get the client. It was a corner back on the panthers. I think but regardless I was like, oh, wait a minute something that we've been wondering and thinking about for the longest We're finally going to get an answer to and this the draft Like it was a beautiful time. This has been a beautiful For four or five days Because I know the draft was just three days, but within the past four or five days We have gotten a lot of questions answered and that's always my favorite part because we could speculate on this all day We could think about this all night. We could wonder what's going to go down here there everywhere But when it finally comes to fruition when we finally get questions answered I love it because it's satisfying Because we need to be right We'll be wrong Or maybe racially hit us with a curveball like they've been doing sometimes But with patrick queen Eric Dacosta has been asked about patrick queen on three separate occasions Two were at a presser. Well, all three were at presses as a matter of fact The most recent one being um after they drafted the linebacker, uh triton simpson When they drafted him because it's like, oh, you drafting an inside lineback and explosive inside like, oh, what about patrick queen? And they just continued Eric Dacosta gave he old patrick queen. He's gonna be a pro bow linebacker But all three times He ain't give an answer. He ain't give a real answer the first time. I think he said, um Oh, well, uh, we haven't made any decisions on that something like that in the second time He was like, oh, well, we'll we'll talk to patrick queen about that in private We don't want to answer that before we talk to him in private something like that And and he just been real mum on it now um, when we think about it Uh, if the fifth year option is declined If it's declined, let's talk about a couple of different scenarios Um, if it's declined then this will be the last year of patrick queen His rookie deal Because with the first round draft picks they have four year rookie deals with the fifth year option Um, and this will be the last year now It does not necessarily mean oh, that's a wrap for patrick queen If the fifth year option is declined Because they have they still have options on what they could do They could allow him to play out that fifth year option I mean, excuse me play out his last four year on the baltimore ravens and then after that He will be a free agent So they could have him they could keep him and I know a lot seen a lot of ravens fans envisioning this scenario Again, I still don't think it's gonna happen. I would love for it to happen. I hope that it happens Like I would love I would love to be wrong about this I would love to be wrong because y'all know as soon as they traded uh for roquan smith We said it right then in there. Oh, that's that's a wrap for patrick queen. This this is gonna be it for him They're gonna trade him away But I would love to be wrong about that. I would love it. That would make me really happy Like with lemar jackson y'all know early on this offseason. I thought lemar jackson was gone I thought he was gonna be out of here somebody even uh reminded me of it a couple days ago They sent me a message on facebook. They said you were wrong about lemar jackson And I replied to them great great Like i'm i'm glad to have been wrong about that because I wanted to stay I ain't wanting to leave But anyway, this whole patrick queen thing I would I would love to be wrong about this as well, but We'll see we'll see but anyway, um if they decline his fifth year option This will be the last year of his rookie deal with the baltimore ravens So they could either allow him to play it out. Um stay on a team this year Uh, or they they could still trade them. They could still trade them Now again, since there's still an option, we got to talk about it. They could also Sign them to an extension Patrick queen is now eligible because he's completed three years. He is eligible for a contract extension So if the ravens wanted to give him one they could They could So they have that option Um, so those are the three options with that. So again, he he played out this final year uh, and He stays with the ravens on this final year He plays out this final year and after this year he moves on to a different team Or he signs a contract extension or he could be traded. Uh, still this offseason So those are the options with that now the options if they pick up the fifth year option I mean pretty much the same options. It would just be an additional year added on to everything So if they pick up the fifth year option, then patrick queen would be under contract with the baltimore ravens this year and next year So they would have him for two more years Um, so that would be that Sorry, I just got thrown off guard because My dog just walked in here She just walked in here unannounced and I did not know I thought I closed the door poogie come here She kind of startled me a little bit. She's like come here So she say what's up to team keep it clean real quick But anyway, that's poogie. All right poogie. You got to move. That's it. So anyway Um, if they pick up the fifth year option, uh, they would have him for the next two years They could still trade him this season or they could trade him next off season Now if they traded him either this or next off season, then they would be able to get more now Uh, or whenever they traded him then they would if he left as a free agent and he got signed to a significant amount significant enough contract Uh, to where they would get a compensatory pick for him So if he signed a big enough contract somewhere else in free agency, then the following year The year after that then they would get a comp pick for one patrick queen But like I've been saying I just I don't envision them letting him ride it out like that Because they haven't done that. They just that hadn't been how they operate Uh, if it's a first round pick That they don't plan on signing They have gotten something now rather than later for them. See hayden hurst They weren't going to resign him what they do. They traded him See hollywood brown They weren't going to resign him what they do they traded him and they got something now rather than Letting him play out the the entire contract and then becoming a free agent and getting a comp pick Even Orlando brown jr. Who wasn't a uh first round pick They were like, you know what we're not going to sign him Let we're we're going to trade him pookie get out get out I ain't trying to have her knock the camera over and then that that would be a mess, but anyway, um, so so that's why I envision Patrick queen just not I I don't envision him being with the ravens Long term. I don't envision them keeping him again Please let me eat my words. Let me be wrong about this I would not be mad at that at all because that will be quality of the quality is of depth Oh, that would that would just that would be great. I would love that But again, I just I don't see it. But hey, think about this. Um We uh There was a lot of people that thought Patrick queen included myself Patrick queen could be traded before the draft during the draft He could be traded to get more draft picks a lot of people thought he could be part of a deandre hopkins trade But this is what I was talking about earlier with the draft. Um It was nice because we got a lot of questions answered And that was one of the questions will Patrick queen be traded will Devin Duvenay be traded Both of them still here right now So there's this little glimpse of hope that maybe just maybe The ravens could go crazy with depth this year Because like think about that That would be crazy like Roe qualmsmith Patrick queen I'm Trent Simpson My Malik Malik Harrison Oh, my my my memory is just messing up right now, especially with throwing these rookie names in there I probably messed up on the rookie name too. So my apologies if I did there's no offense, but I messed up on everybody's name So it ain't nothing personal But um, they could go crazy with depth At the linebacker position. Then you still got Josh Harris, too So and you still got christian welch, too Man, but then you think about like everybody not gonna stay. Everybody ain't staying But that's that Then you think about running back you got jk dobbins gust Edwards justice heel And then Mitchell Mitchell's a guy who a lot of people been talking about they love that undrafted free agent So I'm gonna have to look some more into him Um, then you look at receiver Uh, Odell Bateman Aguilore Duvenay Um Shamar Bridger still there Isabella knows we're mixing some practice squad guys in there, but hey Spots is up for grabs. Well, maybe like one spot. Maybe up for grabs But then there's pro shape Tyler Wallace, too So you got some some depth there Like you you got some depth there So it's it's a nice thing that cornerback. I don't know it's depth there, but hey, we we we'll see how they work it out I'm sure they're gonna bring in a veteran or two um to help out So, yeah, but um, so yeah that that's things are still up in the air right now Right and Ravens like it's no surprise that Ravens are taking this thing all the way Down to the wire because they they love doing this when it comes to deadlines Ravens will will push something way out to the dead like like that they like me I guess I was always meant to be a Raven fan because I remember growing up uh in school, um I like if it's a project do if it's a paper do if it's an assignment do like, okay, I'm chilling And if we the teacher gives us like a month, hey, you got to do this You got it say for instance, it's April April 1st. Hey, this is do may 1st. Okay, cool April 8th a roll around chillin April 15th a roll around You know cool April 22nd a roll around. Yes, I gotta do that paper April 29th roll around. Oh You know what let me get to working on that That's the way that the Ravens do except with them. They've been working on it the whole time Well, maybe who knows behind the scene, but They push it out to the deadline and them deadlines. They spark that action. I mean They got no choice but to spark that action Uh, so yeah, I'm just glad that we'll finally soon finally get the answer For patrick queen. So anyway Take me keep it clean. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all real quick I got to give a special shout out on twitter Um to the guy who does the best Without question without a shadow of a doubt Uh with the utmost certainty the guy who does the absolute best Jersey swaps ever And that's ravens capital on twitter ravens capital He like and he told me he told me in um, he told me on twitter Uh, when the whole de andre hopkins thing was looking like it was gonna happen We was thinking it was gonna happen. He said hey Use this use this de andre hopkins swap In your thumbnail and I was ready to I'm like, oh, okay. I got you But well, yeah, you know the rest of that story. So I mean, it's all good. It's all good See what happens with de andre hopkins later on I guess we'll see But I do like zato I I actually love him and again, especially with him being from down here to like The florida ravens is taking over again, baby, but yeah, it should be fun But anyway, take it clean. I love y'all so much. I appreciate y'all so much We will um wrap up the rest of the drafties later on um, because we got One two three more Yeah, just got three more because we we talked about three and we got three more to talk about So we will cover that soon But I just had to make sure we talked about this because it's day at line time Love you y'all have a really really really great day. Remember perception is everything Perception is everything it makes such a huge difference like today's first of the month rents do and it's like Man I don't feel like paying no rent. I hate paying rent. I don't like paying rent rent is expensive rent is annoying But then you think oh I got a roof over my head I got some way to sleep at night I have a home So it's all about perception. I love y'all try to have a positive perception. I know it can be tough, especially Because life will try you Life will try you speaking from experience. I know all y'all got experience too. We all got experience every single day But let's at least try. I love you y'all stay up and we out
