Like when I walk around 24 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: the building, I try not to make eyes contact with anybody. 25 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: Like when I walk by the locker room and you 26 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: see a guy walking out with a big old bag, 27 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: it's not a good feeling. You don't like that. You 28 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: could be the turk. You kind of have a creepy 29 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: kind of vibe about you, like you're a very grim reaperish. 30 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: I could see you making a good turk. Joe, Joe 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: Douglas was a turk back in the day. Look at 32 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: him now, GM. That was a GM. I think I 33 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: said my future as well. You know what my movement, 34 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 1: You know what my move would be if I was 35 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: a turk, to fire you, to fire you, any of 36 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: my very first move I walk over to you and 37 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: tell you pack your bags, buddy.

This one comes to 47 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: comes to us from Ryan Cortez and it's always you. 48 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: Guys can email us at the lounge at Ravens dot 49 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: NFL dot net. So here's the question from Ryan. Aloha, 50 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: Garrett and Ryan. My name is Ryan from Waha, Hawaii. 51 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of the Ravens, but a big, big, 52 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: big fan of the podcast. Keep with the good work. 53 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: I have two questions for you today. Number one, where 54 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: do you think the team's biggest weaknesses? And two can 55 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: we afford to lose Jude On in free agency next season? 56 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 1: Thanks for the time, boys, I'll be at mm T 57 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: Bank Stadium for the Browns game September twenty nine, an 58 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: early birthday get from the lady. I'll afford to seeing 59 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: you all and I wait for the start of the season. 60 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: Let's go before we answer his question about the biggest 61 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: weakness on the team, I just got to read the 62 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: text of this email too. He says he's from Hawaii. 63 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: Went to his first Ravens game last season. It was 64 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: against the Steelers. I was there early for pregame warmups. 65 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: I met Garrett and shook his hand, So what's up, 66 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: Bryan Fish handshake in the firm, firm strong, handshake strong. 67 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: Shortly after I started looking for make he was on 68 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: the other side of the field, but I could see 69 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: his bad haircut that Harves roasted him for. Sorry, brother, 70 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: everyone has their bad hair days. Anyway, He's I've had 71 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: bad hair years. It's been more of an era. It's 72 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: been a bad hair era for you. Um He's coming 73 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: to the Browns game on September nine. So anyway, his question, 74 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: biggest weakness on the team right now, I would say, 75 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: right now, it's probably the pass rush. Yeah, you just 76 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: you just you just don't know a lot of unproven 77 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: commodities there. Yes, I would say the pass rush. I 78 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: mean the wide receiver unit. I would say has a 79 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: lot of question marks because it's really young and you're 80 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: looking at two rookies perhaps having very big roles within 81 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: it in Miles Boy in Hollywood Brown. So that comes 82 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: with question marks just because the rookies improving it. I 83 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: like both players. I think that they're gonna be really good, 84 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: but they haven't done it before. So and I also 85 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: am not super concerned because I think this is gonna 86 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: be a run heavy, tight end heavy offense. So I 87 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: don't think ride receiver, you know, is the biggest most 88 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: important position on this team offensive line left guard position 89 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: would be my other spot that I point to. Still. 90 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't want to go ideally into the 91 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: first regular season game and have John Harball still say 92 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: we don't have our guy yet, we don't have our starter. 93 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: You know. That's not ideal. Um. But I think the 94 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: Rains will be fine there. I'm not overly concerned about it. Um. 95 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: So I probably pointed to the pass rush being my 96 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: chief example, my chief weakness right now. But they'll figure 97 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: it out the wink. Martin Neal is a smart guy. 98 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: I think the Ravens will have a bunch of guys 99 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: who get three to four sacks. Is here. I think 100 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,239 Speaker 1: collectively they can they can and withstand those losses. Um. 101 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: And they have a really strong secondary and that's gonna 102 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: help the peace right for sure. For sure. And then 103 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. The good news bad news with 104 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: that good news is it's the same offensive line from 105 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: the second half of last year, and the Ravens ran 106 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: the ball better than any team in the NFL and 107 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: had a lot of success. So that's the good news. 108 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: The bad news is they struggled against the Chargers and 109 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: the offensive line, the interior. The offensive line was a 110 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: big reason why in that playoff game. And so that's 111 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: the bad news there. And it's the same group for 112 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: both the positive and the negative. So, um, you know, 113 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: we'll see. I think that is still a big question 114 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,559 Speaker 1: mark one. You just want to get all these questions 115 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: off the top before we hit the fifty three man roster. 116 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: Oh did we even say that's what we're doing? That 117 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: is what we're doing. I mean, if anyone clicks in, 118 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: if everyone taps into the title, it says making Garrett 119 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: predict their fifty three man roster. I just want to 120 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: make sure, um also, little plug here, little plug, make 121 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: sure you enter that you picked the team contest presented 122 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: by med Star. This is a great deal. So if 123 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: you all you do is you make your submission for 124 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: your fifty three and roster and whoever gets it closest 125 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: to right or a hundred percent right, if you listen 126 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: to us, you'll get a percent, right. I don't know 127 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,799 Speaker 1: if we're gonna have the same one or not. Uh, 128 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: but you get launch here at the facility with GM 129 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: Eric da Costa. It's pretty cool. It's awesome. Yeah, you know, 130 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: I don't even know if I've ever had a one 131 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: on one lunch with Da Costa. Yeah, I have not 132 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: played a lot of I played some soccer with him. Yeah, 133 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: I have not had a one on one lunch with 134 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: the scrappy athlete. And the way the contest works is 135 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: that whoever gets closest or the perfect one wins the contest. 136 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: And then if there's a tie, say multiple people get 137 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: the fifty three, then it's whoever submitted it first. So 138 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people like to kind of wait, you know, 139 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: it's open till Friday at noon. That's when the contest closes. 140 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: A lot of people like to say, I'm just gonna 141 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: wait it out, see how the fourth preseason end goes. Generally, 142 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: that's not a winning strategy. Yeah, because you waited out, 143 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: you may find that a guy gets injured in that 144 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: fourth game, he's not on the team guy, a guy 145 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: gets traded or something like that. But you submitted early, 146 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: you have a better chance Yeah. So all right, before 147 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: we do that full three, here's another question from Benjamin. 148 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: Benjamin says, I've got a question regarding the receivers on 149 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: the team. There's a lot that I've read about Antoine Wesley, 150 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: Seth Roberts, Jalil Scott, Michael Floyd, but I don't hear 151 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: anything about Lamar Jackson's old teammate, Jane Lennon Smith from Louisville. 152 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: Is that because he's not as good as the other 153 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: receivers or why is that? Is he a guy who 154 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: could land on the practice squad? Also shows one Swedish 155 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: Ravens fan. He's from Sweden. Well, you know, I have 156 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: family in Norway and that's a little bit of rivalry, 157 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: but oh wow, I have big respect guy. He doesn't 158 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: like Sweden. I'm just prost anti Swedish guy. Sweet. I like. 159 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: I like their fish, Swedish fish. Get it bad joke, 160 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: bad pun nice um. Anyway, short answer on this one, Yes, 161 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: I don't think that Jalen Smith has played up to 162 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: the level that there's other guys have, not that he's 163 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: played poorly. I do think that he's played well enough 164 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: to consider warrant consideration for the practice squad. But that's 165 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: the in part depend on what other guys going to 166 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: practice squad. I think. I think that, and who goes 167 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: on the fifty three I think the Antoine Wesley probably 168 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: won't be on the fifty three man roster is an 169 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: ideal practice squad candidate. Uh. And I'd probably say the 170 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: same for Mazer. So you're gonna so you're not going 171 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: to keep three wide receivers. I don't think on the 172 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: on a ten man practice squad. Right, all right? Last question? Uh, 173 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: This one comes from some Tisha Gillespie. Hey guys, Tsha 174 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: here from northern Virginia. My husband and I are avid 175 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: lounge listeners and have been for several years. I have 176 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: a two for for you today. My first question is 177 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: I am drafting my fantasy team in a few days 178 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: and want to know which Raven's offensive player makes it 179 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: on your fantasy roster if he's available. I of course 180 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: always draft the Ravens defense and Tucker when he's available. 181 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: They've never let me down. My second question for you 182 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: today is where do you think Patrick a Card's impact 183 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: will be felt the greatest defensive line or as a fullback? 184 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: All right, so what do you think you're the fantasy. 185 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: You like to talk about your fantasy. I'm good at 186 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 1: it and you're terrible. How many championships have you won? 187 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: I won one last year? Oh see, I left it. 188 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: I left the league. I didn't win the one that 189 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: used to the end. Okay that you exited because you're 190 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: so terrible, Sash, you got kicked out. I didn't want 191 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: to that. You begged me, you begged me for months 192 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: to join that league. Get back in. Come on, man, 193 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: we need you, we need you, we need you. And 194 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: I was like, and I was like, I'm out. Didn't 195 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: you finished dead last? I did finish dead last? It 196 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: wasn't good. What was Phip? Full day? Full day in 197 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: a Flamenco costume exactly, just terrible? And then and then 198 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: texting me because I'm getting pictures of this, do not 199 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: put this out. Don't put this out. I'll kill you 200 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: if anybody sees the Flamenco cost And you listened anyway, 201 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: you know I'm a man of my word. Yeah, anyway, 202 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: what was question? Uh? I love mark Ingram this year 203 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: in fantasy football. I think he's gonna be an absolute Stuart. 204 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: We had him on the pod, told him I predicted 205 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: sevent total yards. He thinks he's gonna go over that. Yeah, 206 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: that's a pretty good year. Yeah, what about the other 207 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 1: mark on offense? Oh, Mark Andres is a great sleeper. 208 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: He can be had around the eighth round in the 209 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: twelve team leagues and something like that. I think he 210 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: I bet he could lead. I hate saying I bet 211 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: he could. It's a week you know what, you know what, 212 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: I bet he will lead the ravens and receptions this year. 213 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: All right, Um, and then Lamar Jackson is I think 214 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: a really good intriguing option as a fantasy quarterback because 215 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: he's gonna get you rushing ards. He's gonna get you 216 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns. He's not gonna obviously lead the league in 217 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: passing Omar fantasy, but as a dual threat. Quarterbacks have 218 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: a long history of being successful fantasy quarterbacks, as Deshaun 219 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: Watson is always near the top, Russell Wilson has been 220 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: to the top. Um, I'm reaching around early to get Lamar. 221 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: I'm like scrolling down, you know, to see like he's 222 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: not in that initial window. You know, you gotta scroll 223 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: down a little bit. And then I'm like, oh, yeah, 224 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: he's supposed to go to the ninth. I'm taking him 225 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: in the eighth. That means I'm taking Mark Andres in 226 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: the seventh. You just it's like the Ravens bump. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well, 227 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: especially if when you're in a league with other Ravens 228 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: fans and your dad. I know, that's the one thing 229 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: that like, you know, you think of a guy like 230 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: Lamar or whoever, and you're like, oh, no, one's gonna 231 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 1: think about taking Lamar in Baltimore. If you're playing with 232 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: people on Baltimore, everyone's going to kind of sucks. That's 233 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: why I like being in the league with people that 234 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: aren't Ravens fans. Yeah, you know, I scoop up all 235 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens. Yeah, that's why you keep winning your league. 236 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: You keep you play with people. Yeah. I play with 237 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: these people who aren't football fans. Nobody's a football fan 238 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: in this league. It's great. I win it every year. Anyway. 239 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: There's another question from Christopher Gillespie. Uh, family affair here, 240 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: family fair. Yeah, they're just really trying to get their 241 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: odds of getting a T shirt right. So Christopher, he 242 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: had a good question about tradeing RG three of the Colts. 243 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna happen. But something I thought 244 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: about two when I saw in Your Luck Go Down, 245 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: I doubt that it's gonna happen. Because the Ravens really 246 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: like r G three is their backup. I don't think 247 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: they want to trade him. I think I look at 248 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: more of the Texans and running back. The Ravens have 249 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: a crowd running back room. Could a guy like Kenneth 250 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: Dixon interests the Texans? Well, that's all right, So now 251 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: we're getting into who's gonna let's get out there? Yeah, 252 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: le's let's let's get into it. Um, we have kind 253 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: of discussed this. I don't know exactly where you landed 254 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: on some guys. So let's start with quarterback. Well, it's 255 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: a big one. Yes, Are you going with three? Obviously, 256 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson RG three on the team? No, I'm gonna 257 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: Trace not on the team, not one. And I put 258 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: him on the Well, I'm glad we have some differences. 259 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: We started with a difference here. I think Trace ms 260 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: always one of the toughest decisions on the entire roster here. Uh. 261 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 1: The reason I put him on the fifty three is 262 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: I feel like he has done enough in the preseason 263 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: to show that he has some serious potential on this team. 264 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: I think that there's always there's a risk when you 265 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: cut him. I don't think another team would sign him 266 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: to be the backup for them, but I do think 267 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: there's a risk with trying to put him on the 268 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: practice squad. I also think that what then, what somebody's 269 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: gonna bring him to be their number three on their 270 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: active roster. You think, well, if he feels like if 271 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: the Ravens were to cut him, and another team feels like, hey, 272 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: you know, come here and join this practice squad. We 273 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: have a young quarterback who maybe their quarterback situation is 274 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: less settled than it is here in Baltimore, and he 275 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: wants to go there, and how it feels like maybe 276 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: next year he has a chance to compete for a 277 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: starting job or whatever, compete for a backup job. The 278 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: quarterback situation here settled, you know, for for years to come. Oh, 279 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: teams could say whatever the heck they want to say, 280 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: you come here, you're gonna be a starter next Well, 281 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: the other reason I put him on the fifty three 282 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: for me is that Robert Griffin. Look, he has not 283 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: He obviously didn't play at all in the preseason, So 284 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm just a little bit nervous if you were to 285 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: go into the season and not have Trace on the roster. 286 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 1: Here's my thing. I think Trace mc slily knows that 287 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: in the Ravens offense, that's that suits him best than 288 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: than any other offense. So I think the Ravens try 289 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: to get him through on practice squad. Um. So we've 290 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: got a big difference all right, wide receiver, I think 291 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: we all we both have the top four there. We 292 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: both have Willie Snead, both have the two rookies Marquise 293 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: Brown and um Isisles Boykin. We both have Chris Where 294 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: is he yet? Why? May why Chris Moore? All right? 295 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: Do you have Seth robertson? Yes, me too? And then 296 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: do you keep a sixth wide receiver? And if so, 297 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: who Julil Scott? Same here? Okay, so we have the 298 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: same sex. The reason I left off Michael Floyd, who 299 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: I think has come on strong, have a nice touchdown 300 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: catch last week. Um. I think it kind of comes 301 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: down to the Ravens deciding between Michael Floyd and Seth 302 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: Roberts more than Jalil Scott, because Julie Scott is gonna 303 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: give you some special teams they're um, Floyd, I think 304 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: has impressed me as of late. Seth seemed to be 305 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: clearly ahead of him early on a training camp. That 306 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: as a starter on our depth chart right now, correct, 307 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: So that's why I have Seth ahead of it. They 308 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: scooped him up for a reason. He's signed him early 309 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: to Yeah, he's a good uh slot receiver, He's a 310 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: good blocker. I think he does a number of things. Well, um, yeah, 311 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: so I have this same six. Do think that Antoine Wesley, 312 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: like I said, will be a good practice squad candidate 313 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: running back? Yep? Do you keep four? Ye? Okay, so 314 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: we're both keeping mark Ingram, We are both keeping Gus Edwards, 315 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: Kenneth Dixon, and Justice Hill. I am yeah. I think 316 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: with Kenneth Dixon it'll be interesting. Does he play on Thursday? 317 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: Like that is one thing where you if there's a 318 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: benefit to waiting to fill out your final fifty three 319 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: man roster. Let's say Kenneth Dixon doesn't play on Thursday, 320 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: do you feel like he's definitely on the team. Then 321 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: the other possibility to be a trade. Right, You're saying 322 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: that they hold him back just so he doesn't get 323 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: injured because you're they're looking for a trade. No, no, 324 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: that he doesn't play because they don't care because they're 325 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: gonna cut him anyway. No, no, no no. I think if 326 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna if they were gonna cut him, they would 327 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: probably just play him. But I think if they feel 328 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: like they want him on the team, they don't plan 329 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: because you protect him right right, or you could not 330 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: play him the other possibilities. You don't plan him because 331 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: if you were looking to trade him, So that's what 332 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Maybe you don't know you can, you can, 333 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: But anyway, I think that running back, they're going to 334 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: run the ball so much this year that you don't 335 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: want to leave yourself open to let's say, mark Ingram 336 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: or to go down knock on what that he doesn't uh, 337 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: you know, Gus. I think Gus and Justice could carry 338 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: the load, but I'd feel better if Kenethtics over there. 339 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: I've always liked Kennethtics, and I think he's a really 340 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: good runner. I I just don't want to be shorthanded 341 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: at running back in this offense. In particular, I think 342 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: that he's shown he looked good during training camp, he 343 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: looked good over the course of his career when he's 344 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: on the field. As we've said a million times on here, 345 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: having him on the field has been an issue because 346 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: he's been hurt or suspended, but he's but he's been 347 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: good when he's been on the field, and you have 348 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: to think long and hard about getting rid of good 349 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: players and Gus, Gus takes a beating out there. You 350 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: don't know, you never know when he could could happen. Yeah, 351 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: he runs his style. He delivers a lot of punishment 352 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: and he takes a lot of a lot of punishment 353 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: as a runner. Yes, uh, tight end. I think we 354 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: both are on the same page here, Mark Andrews Haydenhurst 355 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: and Nick Boyle. Uh. Charles Scarf who's undrafted Brookie had 356 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: of Delaware. I think that he could be a practice 357 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: squad Canada, as could Cole herdman Um. But I probably 358 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: will put Scarf on there offensive line. This is tricky, 359 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: so we know that this. We know four of the 360 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: five starters yep, Ronnie Stanley's on the team, marked, Matt 361 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: Scurros on the team, Marshal Yanda and Orlando Brown. Okay, 362 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: we can probably agree. Obviously Ben Powers is going to 363 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: be on the team. Yes, James Church is gonna be 364 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 1: on James Hurst is gonna be on the team that 365 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: you're up to six. I think that Bradley Boseman is 366 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: on the team. Agreed, that's seven. Now you have Illuminous, 367 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: Gregson not yep, and Patrick McCarry and Patrick McCarry. I 368 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: have of those three only Patrick McCary on the team. 369 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: And I have only Germaine Illuminois on the team. Okay, 370 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: another disagreement. Yes, well, didn't you just say that you 371 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: kept us out the robbers because he's listed as a 372 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: starter on the death chart. It's true. I'm looking at 373 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: the death try right now. Jermaine Aluminous listed as starting 374 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: my guard. That is true. Here's my thing, this is 375 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: why I keep McCary over a luminar. I think it's 376 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: just the upside. Illuminar has been in this this system, 377 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: on the scene for three years now. They cut him 378 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: last year at the end of the camp. You know 379 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 1: what you have in Jermaine a luminar? Right? I mean, 380 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: are there any more questions that need to be answered? 381 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: If he doesn't win the starting left guard job, which 382 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 1: he could, But if he doesn't, to me, I would 383 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: rather keep McCary and develop him a little bit more 384 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: as a backup because really you're you're good at backup 385 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: center and guard because you have Bozeman who can back 386 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: up center and guard. You have uh pam Powers who 387 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: can back up or be the starting guard. James Hurst 388 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: is your guard slash tackle right. So I think part 389 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: of the reason I kept Jermaine Allumino is he does 390 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: have the ability to play tackle, and McCary does too. Yeah, 391 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 1: but illuminars done it. I probably would prefer to see 392 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: a Luminar out there tackle. But if James Hurst isn't 393 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: a larding left guard, then he is your natural backup 394 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: at both right and left tackle. Right, but he could 395 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: be a starter there. He could be you know, he 396 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: he could be your starter. Um yeah. I think the 397 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: other thing of the Cary you could get him on 398 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: the practice squad. I think, like is there he went 399 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: on drafted three months ago. You could probably get him 400 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: on your practice squad. But sometimes people are looking for 401 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: that young offensive line like the league is barren of 402 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 1: offensive lineman there. People are looking for alignement and if 403 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: according to PFF, McCarry has been one of the best 404 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: rookie pass blockers in the league in the preseason, So 405 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: if other teams are seeing that they might be willing 406 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: to take a shot on him more likely than Jermaine 407 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: A Luminar. Let's say, if if the Ravens were to 408 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: release Jermaine A Luminar, he might sit out there and 409 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: if you really need to bring them back, you could 410 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: sign it back. That's what they did last year. Well, 411 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: he was he went on the practice squad, So what's 412 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: preventing him from doing this a similar move that this year? 413 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: I I get it. I just McCary, I was just 414 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: looking it up. You say, he has the ability to 415 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: play tackle, but he's a he's a small tackle. He's 416 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: three hundred pounds. He's Jeremayna lum and that's part of 417 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: the benefit of him. He's he's he's got the size 418 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,239 Speaker 1: to be stout there in the middle. And then if 419 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: you were to put him out there a tackle. Uh, 420 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: he's a big boy. So McCary is I mean, if 421 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 1: you were gonna put McCary at tackle, that is a 422 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: that's a big adjustment. Yeah. I mean Sonata, I'd like 423 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: to have him as a backup tackle, but he's been injured. 424 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: I like Greg Snat he looks great. Um, I kind 425 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: of I just see him on the practice squad probably, Yeah, 426 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: I agree with that. The other one, they can call 427 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: him up if there is an injury a tackle and 428 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: they have Hurst's the tackle, and then the snot becomes 429 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: your backup. Yeah. I just think that you could probably 430 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: get mcary on your practice squad at this point. So 431 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: maybe you put McCary on the practice squad and illuminary 432 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: shirt on your fifty three. Um. The other one on offense, 433 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: and this is an offense defense, I have Patrick Card, Yeah, yeah, 434 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: I have Patrick er Card. He's essentially your fourth tight 435 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: end slash full black slash defensive lineman. So sure if 436 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: you want to count him on offense. Yes, I have 437 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: a Card on the team, all right. Secondary Jimmy Smith, 438 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: Brandon Carr, Marlon Humphrey. I think they're all shoeings. Um. 439 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 1: Tony Jefferson is on. I have Earl Thomas obviously on, 440 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: Deshaun Elliott on, Anthony Averett on, Anthony Levine on. Uh. 441 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: I have Chuck clark on. I don't think he's a shoeing, 442 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: but I think I think he's pretty close to it. 443 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: I have Brandon trawick Off. I also had Brandon trauwick Off. 444 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: That's a tricky one. Sorry, let me finish you. I 445 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: have on Justin Bethel on, Cyrus Jones one. I think 446 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: that's everybody. And I had Cyrus Jones also on as 447 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: you're starting point returning and I think that is a 448 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: big reason why he's gonna be out his team. But 449 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: he's also didn't keep Tyler Irvin on. Yeah who's running back? Um? Yeah, 450 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: I think the the ability as a special team or 451 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: as a point returner. Really, I think it's gonna be 452 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: as Cyrus on the team. But he looks like he 453 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: may end up playing some defense too, based on the 454 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: injuries there. Now, one thing interesting thing is Tavan Yeah, 455 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: I have Tavon Young off. The Ravens have not said 456 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: you have him on. I'm thinking about putting him on. 457 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: So so here's the thing with Tavon Young, and this 458 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,880 Speaker 1: is he'd only be on for a day. Well yeah, 459 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 1: Well this is where we get into the weeds and 460 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: the nitty gritty of roster rules. Tavon Young is dealing 461 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: with an injury. Um, the Ravens have not said definitively 462 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: if he's going to miss the entire season, if he's 463 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: going to have surgery. I guess that would cost him 464 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: the entire season, and so if you're going to put 465 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: if if he is going to play potentially at any 466 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: point this season, they could put him on injury reserve 467 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: and then he he could return after eight weeks. If 468 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: that's going to happen, he has to be on the 469 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: fifty three through the weekend. Here's an interesting question that 470 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: I just thought of. Justin Bethel count against the compensatory 471 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: pick formula if he doesn't make the team originally if 472 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: he gets cut every signed. Um, when did the Ravens 473 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: sign him? They sign in marsh right, Like, if Justin 474 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: Bethel are the guy that you cut for a day 475 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: and brought him back, does that somehow impact your compensatory 476 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: pick formula? Uh? It may remember Justin Fort Justin Forcett 477 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: got cut for twenty four hours and brought back. I 478 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: wonder whether they could do that with Bethel to get 479 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: around that. I don't know, Yeah, um, I don't know. 480 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: Or Tavon Young could just land and I are I 481 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: I think I'm in Marshall's gonna land On I R 482 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: I think I'm Marshall. He hasn't practiced, He's not gonna 483 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: be healthy enough to play in the fourth preseason game. 484 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what the extent of that is, 485 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: but he hasn't been out there, so I have him 486 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: landing on IR. Yeah, and but so we we both 487 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: have Tavon Young off because we have him going to 488 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: I R, not as a I R with a potential 489 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: to return. If if Tavon Young gets carried on the 490 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: roster through the weekend, that would be an indication that 491 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: he could likely be headed for that I are designated 492 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: to return. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm counting up my spots 493 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: here to make sure I have this all right, But 494 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to pull another one like our last 495 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: where you didn't have Jalen Firston on the team. Well, 496 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 1: I made a last minute decision to take McSorley. All yeah, yeah, 497 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: all right, keep talking. I'm doing some math alright. So 498 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: now I'm gonna go to the defensive line. UH. I 499 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: think everyone agrees. Brandon Williams and Michael Piercer on, Chris 500 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: Wormley is on UH, Willie Henry is on UH. Dalen 501 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 1: mac this year late round draft pick, I have him 502 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: on UH. An interesting person to consider there is Zack 503 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: Steeler and Gerald Willis. Jerald Willis the undrafted defensive lineman 504 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: out of Miami. A lot of people thought he could 505 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: be in the mix. Was kind of a mid round 506 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: draft pick projection who ends up going undrafted. Um, I 507 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: do not have him on the team. I do have 508 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: Zach Seiler on the team. I have Zax Seiler on 509 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: the team as well. So you have those same six 510 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: defensive lineman Williams, Pierce Warmly, Henry mac Steiler. Yes, I 511 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: don't have Jerald. I have Jerald Willis on the practice squad. 512 00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 1: Now are you done doing your math? Did you add 513 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: it up right? No? Yeah, I'm good that it's gonna 514 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: be the whole Tavon thing. But I'll get to what 515 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: I think is gonna happen there. Okay, all right, so 516 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: let's go outside linebacker. Purnell McPhee on, done on Matthew, 517 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: jude on On, Tim and Tius Ivan. I agree with that, Chris, 518 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: and I have uh Jalen Ferguson, Yes, and Jalen Ferguson. 519 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: We don't forget him this time. Chris Board, Peanut, Kenny 520 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: Young and Insuth linebacker. And here's what I think is 521 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: gonna happen. I think they're gonna sign a veteran inside 522 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: linebacker that gets cut from some other team. I could 523 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: see that. I mean they just try to do with 524 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: Paul Warlow exactly. I could also see an offensive lineman. 525 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be an inside linebacker that they're 526 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: gonna cut, and that's gonna be an addition that nobody 527 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: sees on their fifty three man roster prediction. And that's 528 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: gonna be the guy who essentially takes because I have 529 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: Tavon Young on my account, I have Tavon Young included on, 530 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: but I think he's gonna be on for one day 531 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 1: and then be moved to the pup to return in 532 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: your reserve to return, sorry, and that insuth linebacker is 533 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 1: gonna take that spot if they don't sign one. I 534 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: think Otaro Laca has a possibility of making this team. Yeah, 535 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,719 Speaker 1: I think so too. I mean, originally the Ravens, the 536 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: Ravens just try to sign Paul Warlow and he walked away, 537 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: and he walked away, and he's gonna be some veteran 538 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: inside linebackers they can cut. Right, there's already it's already 539 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: starting to happen. And I would not rule out an 540 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: offensive line either. I've been saying that for a while, 541 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: I think that there's been John Harkwell said today that 542 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: the left guard position is not decided yet. So if 543 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: there's a good very open he said, remember a couple 544 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: of years ago they signed vlad Dukas and he ended 545 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: up starting like fifteen games that season. So there could 546 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: be an offensive lineman who's not one right now. And 547 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:38,959 Speaker 1: if that were to be the case, you could end 548 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: up party ways without the Germaine and Luminar or Patrick McCarry. Yeah, 549 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 1: and I think if if yes, I agree, if they 550 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 1: go with the inside linebacker, that takes that spot of 551 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: a Trawick who we're having a tough times because I 552 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: think that guy would be at a special teams player 553 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 1: as well. So you had justin Bethel on or off. 554 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: I have him on. So the differences here are I 555 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: have a Luminar, you have McCary, I have um Trace mcstorley, 556 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: and you have Tavon Young. Yes, I have Tavon Young, 557 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: but that spot that's a placeholder for somebody else, right. 558 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: But the reason you have Tavon Young on because you 559 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: believe that he could be put on I R designate 560 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 1: to return exactly and that that spot is going to 561 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: be filled by a linebacker or yeah, either atar Alaka 562 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: somebody they signed, or possibly it could be an offensive lineman. 563 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: Though if they think if they trade for an offensive linement, 564 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: I think he probably takes that McCary slash Alomarus. I 565 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: think i'd say that we I think that there's going 566 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: to be someone on the fifty three going in to 567 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: Miami on Week one who's not on the team right now. Well, 568 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 1: then you're signed with me. Oh yeah, and who are specialists? 569 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: Good one? Huh Yes, it's so funny here, hilarious. Anyway, Uh, 570 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: that's our fifty three man roster prediction. You know, we 571 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: haven't done our predictions for the season, like Who's which 572 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: are always so off there terrible? We went back bad? 573 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: Uh particularly remember you said the Alex Consin can be 574 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: a thousand yard ushurant. Why are you laughing? I guess 575 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't even close. Um uh So, But we probably 576 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: won't have time to do that next week because we're 577 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,719 Speaker 1: gonna have Lamar Jackson Baby Action Jackson's coming on the 578 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: pod for next week. Big teasing. He told me he 579 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: can't sound effects. Sam hit me with something. Push a button, 580 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: any button? Yes, yes, um he told me he can't 581 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: wait to do it serious, and he was serious. Maybe 582 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: he's just being a nice guy, but he seems serious. 583 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: I like it. I'll take it. I'm not gonna argue. 584 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: I'm pretty excited. But anyway, so that doesn't leave us 585 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: enough time to do our predictions. Maybe we'll maybe we'll 586 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: find a way to we'll slip him in there. Maybe 587 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: we'll find a way all right. Anyway, with all that said, 588 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,239 Speaker 1: as always, you can reach us at the lounge at 589 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: Ravens NFL dot net.
