1
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Welcome into the Lounge presented by DraftKings. I'm Ryan mink

2
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: here with Garrett Downing and we had big news news.

3
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 2: Todayken Wilds's I heard one of those.

4
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: This feels good with the Kyle Hamilton four year contract extension,

5
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: making him the highest paid safety in the NFL. It's

6
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: a record setting contract and well deserved for a record

7
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: setting player. How do you like that? I like it.

8
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton's awesome and really good to see him get paid.

9
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 3: Look, this is I think there's a couple of things

10
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 3: that this says. One is, obviously the Ravens love Kyle Hamilton.

11
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 3: He's been a great player. He just finished his third season.

12
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 3: This was the earliest possibility of from an eligibility standpoint.

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 3: He just became eligible to get this contract extension this offseason.

14
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 3: He was technically under contract for two more years. So like,

15
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: there was not an urgency on paper to get this

16
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 3: thing done, but the Ravens wanted to get it done,

17
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 3: and I and Hamilton of course would like to get

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 3: it done and give you security a lot of money.

19
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: He said it was a priority to him. He wanted

20
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: to get that deal done.

21
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: He wanted to get it done.

22
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: But like I think that this shows that, like there was,

23
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: Kyle Hamilton is a player that checks every single box

24
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 3: on and off the field. He's everything that you want

25
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 3: in a player. He's the Ravens drafted him with the

26
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,839
Speaker 3: fourteenth pick. He's coming here. He's been a Pro Bowl player,

27
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 3: at an All Pro player, He's been a great guy

28
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 3: on and off the field, a leader on this team.

29
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 3: You just look at it and you're like, there's no

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: doubt that we're going to give him a contract, Like

31
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 3: that's going to happen. The price only goes up the

32
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 3: longer that you wait, but still like getting it done

33
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 3: after three years when you had him under contract for

34
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 3: two more years. I just think speaks to the commitment

35
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 3: that the Ravens had and knowing like he's our guy,

36
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 3: he's one of the franchise players. Let's just get it

37
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:47,559
Speaker 3: done and put the thing to rest.

38
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: Right. The Ravens have a lot of players that are

39
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: in line for contract extensions and they all deserve one.

40
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: The Ravens unfortunately won't be able to give all of

41
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: them contract extensions most likely, but they all they deserve

42
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: them from somebody, Kyle Hamilton was a no doubter. Yeah,

43
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: it was just it was a no doubter, had had

44
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: to had to get it done. And credit to him,

45
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: his agents and the Ravens, you know, and Kyle was

46
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: pretty transparent when we heard from him about like the

47
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: negotiations that, like they were just really interesting and well

48
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: well handled by all sides involved. And yeah, it's just

49
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: really plaud its to everybody involved because Kyle Hamilton is

50
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: a centerpiece kind of player because of a how good

51
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: he is not only just how good, but how good

52
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 1: he is at multiple positions. Like the dude plays free safety,

53
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 1: strong safety, linebacker, nickel corner, outside corner, like he plays everywhere,

54
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: and he plays level outside linebacker.

55
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: Sometimes you put him down to the line scrim.

56
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: He's got snaps according to Pro Football Focus as a

57
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: d lineman and he plays them.

58
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 3: All well, yeah, he's a unicorn. Like and you listen

59
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 3: to other players talk about him and like everybody, his teammates, opponents, everybody's.

60
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: Like, this guy is one of one in terms of

61
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 2: what he can do.

62
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: Like I go back to when we had Malachi Starks

63
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 3: on the podcast after the Ravens drafted him, and like

64
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 3: Malachi was just like gushing about all the different things

65
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 3: that Kyle Hamilton does, and how he can learn from him,

66
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 3: and how he was watching his film before he even

67
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 3: got drafted by the Ravens, and like that's the level

68
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 3: of respect that.

69
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: He has around the league.

70
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 3: And do you talk about the negotiations on that front.

71
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 3: A couple of things that were interesting to me on

72
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: that one is over the last three like three weeks,

73
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: things really accelerated, and Kyle said, like he was very

74
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 3: much involved in the process. Some guys are like, which, honestly,

75
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 3: that is at.

76
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: Least all the emails.

77
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 3: He was copied on all the emails and and a

78
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 3: lot of times guys say, like, I let my agent

79
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 3: handle that. But Kyle like he was reading the emails

80
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: and he was involved in the process, and I think

81
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 3: that speaks to the type of guy he is.

82
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's interesting about that is, like negotiations can be

83
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: difficult emotionally because when each side is trying to get

84
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: the most right, like things can be said that can

85
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: ruffle feathers. Right, Like an agent can come in at

86
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: this number and they're like, nah, we don't think you're

87
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: worth that. We think you're worth this, and like that

88
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: can be tough to read or hear as a player

89
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 1: and I imagine that like some agents tell the player, hey,

90
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: you don't want to see this stuff, Like this is

91
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: why you pay me is so you don't have to

92
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: see that stuff that might kind of bother you, right,

93
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: and like this is my job. I shield you from

94
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: that and we get you the best deal and you

95
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: feel happy, just good vibes. And then like there's Kyle

96
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: Hamilton who's like, actually I have a think enough skin

97
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: that like I want to see that, and he was

98
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: and he even said that like some of the emails,

99
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: he's like all right, you know you could take it

100
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: a certain way, like not that he said it was

101
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: like well done and even some humor in the emails

102
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: and like you know that it was like professional and

103
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: just good emails, but like, yeah, it can be kind

104
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 1: of tough to somebody's ego sometimes.

105
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, he really gave credits to both sides, both his

106
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: agent and the Ravens. Just said like the entire negotiation

107
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: was kind of like a no nonsense, all business yeah,

108
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 3: like very direct and like I think that like honestly,

109
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 3: they both sides were like, Okay, we know this is

110
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 3: going to happen, like we're getting a deal done.

111
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: Let's folly some numbers back and forth.

112
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: Let's say, let's go around the horn here and figure

113
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 3: out like a number that makes sense. But like we

114
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: know when we walk out of the room, the deal's

115
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 3: going to get done. And I think that, like that's

116
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 3: a good place to start.

117
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 1: And but it's it's just it was really cool because

118
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: a you don't usually hear players talk about the intricacies

119
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: of the negotiation to this level or anybody, you know,

120
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: Eric Kausas certainly doesn't detail this stuff, and so it

121
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: was even for insiders, you know, teamployees, like we don't need,

122
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: we don't know, and so it was interesting to hear it.

123
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: I think it reflects Kyle's maturity, you know, like the

124
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: kind just which is also part of the reason that

125
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 1: I think the Ravens feel comfortable investing one hundred million

126
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: dollars in him. Is like the maturity that this guy has.

127
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 1: You know, no matter what, Kyle Hamilton's gonna his head's

128
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: on straight, and he's this very smart guy. Like mentally,

129
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: you never have to worry about that guy, right, and

130
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about money changing him, you

131
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,119
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about any of that, and him

132
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: playing hard after he gets paid all that, like he's

133
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: going to and and yeah. And I thought it was

134
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: also reflected well upon the Ravens organization because you just

135
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: you see all these other teams and the negotiations that

136
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: they are having with their star players, and it didn't

137
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: sound like what Kyle Hamilton's talking about.

138
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it ain't.

139
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: Going that much more. It can be much more adversarial, yeah, exactly,

140
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: And it did not seem like that. So like that's

141
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: a credit to the Ravens front office because like, I

142
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: feel like they've just always been straight up with guys,

143
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: is what it feels like. And you know, they're not

144
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: always going to give a player their agent the answer

145
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: that they wont but like, how do you handle it matter?

146
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: How you handle that matters so much. And it feels

147
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: like this was unique insight into why another reason why

148
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: the Ravens have such continued success, Well.

149
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 3: You talk about the process. I think a point that

150
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 3: speaks to that is Eric Taicasta walked out to his

151
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 3: press conference today. He was already scheduled to talk with

152
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 3: the media today. He was scheduled to talk and he

153
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 3: walks out there and kind of starts delivering an opening

154
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 3: statement and then in the midst of that opening statement,

155
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 3: it's like, oh, yeah, we got some news here. We

156
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 3: just got a contract extentially don Kyle Hamilton signed in

157
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 3: an hour GOO. And so he broke the news during

158
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 3: his press conference, And that does not happen very often.

159
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 3: A lot of times these things are out there and leaked.

160
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 3: But Tacosta made the point in his press conference where

161
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: he covered a lot of ground, and we're going to

162
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: get into some of the other points of that here

163
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 3: in a little bit, But he made the point in

164
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 3: that press conference, like I like to operate in silence

165
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 3: and work in silence in a lot of ways. I'm

166
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 3: like we have seen this time and time again that

167
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 3: he has the ability to work with players and with

168
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 3: agents to get these deals done. Not hearing anything like

169
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 3: publicly doesn't necessarily mean that there's no action taking place.

170
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 3: And like I go back to the when the Lamar

171
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: deal happened, that like they'd obviously been going back and forth,

172
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 3: but then like when it when we finally announced, it

173
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 3: was kind of out of nowhere, and like that was

174
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 3: the same way today. So they've been able to keep

175
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 3: a lot of these negotiations respectful certainly, but in house.

176
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 3: And and then they come out to a good alcoholic both.

177
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 2: Sides are happy.

178
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: Eric said, I like to work in the dark. Yeah,

179
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 1: you know, I like to work quietly.

180
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

181
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's generally works out better.

182
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then the other point too, like you talk

183
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 3: about Cayle Hamilton being a guy you don't need to

184
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 3: worry about. He had a good quote during his pressor

185
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: where he said, my mom always told me growing up,

186
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 3: like money just makes you more of who you are.

187
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 3: And that was something that you know, was instilled in

188
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 3: him at a young age. And I think that he

189
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 3: embodies that, like he's not like he's it's not going

190
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 3: to change him.

191
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 2: The contract is not going to change him.

192
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 3: So and he he even said, like actively he's he

193
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 3: wants to make sure that it doesn't change his mindset,

194
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 3: the way he plays, like attitude on and off the field,

195
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 3: all of it. Like he doesn't he doesn't want it

196
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 3: to change him.

197
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: Of course, the one of the first questions is always

198
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: what are you going to do with your signing? Boo? Yeah,

199
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: he said, you know, might buy a watch. Yeah, the

200
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: rest goes in the piggy bank. He did divulge that

201
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: he also might get a new driver. Golf club discounted

202
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 1: though he said he was working, he was angling for

203
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,719
Speaker 1: the discount, which was really my favorite part of the

204
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 1: press conference. As a guy who loves a bargain. Yeah,

205
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: that was I love that. It doesn't matter. You just

206
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: said a million contract. You're like, I wouldn't need that

207
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: five percent off?

208
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: Can you knock one hundred bucks off the driver?

209
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 1: I respect it?

210
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I respect the heck of that.

211
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's kind of like what when Flacco signed

212
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: his contract and he ran through McDonald's afterwards.

213
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: That was an all time class. That was a classic moment,

214
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: riding the free shuttle to the.

215
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, so good.

216
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: That was great. So yeah, congrats to Kyle. I mean,

217
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: the other the other the exciting thing on the field

218
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: is like you just look at this team beyond like

219
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: Eric and Eric Kass was clear about it, talking about

220
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: keeping the super Bowl window open. He never wants to

221
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: be a GM of a team that where the super

222
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: Bowl window is closed. And you look at this defense

223
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: and now you have he and Malachi Starks patrolling the

224
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: back end of this defense for a long time coming, Like,

225
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 1: feel pretty darn good about that. Yeah, And and the

226
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 1: guy on the other side of the ball, and you know,

227
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton was pretty clear about this. You feel good

228
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: about signing long term extension with the ball Fromore Ravens

229
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: when you know Lamar Jackson is gonna be here, Like

230
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: you're playing with Lamar Jackson in the in the prime

231
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: of his career. Yeah, like you got And Kyle point

232
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 1: blank said, you got a chance to win the Super

233
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 1: Bowl every single year when Lamar Jackson is back there.

234
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: So that's another part of the reason why the selling

235
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: point for the Ravens is Lamar totally.

236
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 3: I mean, how many times have we heard guys talk

237
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 3: about that, like wanting Derrick Henry when he signed his

238
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 3: contact session DeAndre Hopkins, and like when you look at

239
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 3: when you look at the moves that the Ravens made

240
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 3: this off season, I really do give Eric to Costa

241
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 3: a lot of credit for what he's been able to

242
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 3: pull off this offseason. Brings in DeAndre Hopkins, extends Derrick Henry,

243
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: retains Ronnie Stanley when a lot of people thought that

244
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: Ronnie could end up leaving, extends for Sean Bateman, gets

245
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 3: an extension done with Kyle Hamilton, and I know there's

246
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 3: other moves that I'm missing, brings in Jaire Alexander, like yeah,

247
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 3: like Cheeto, yep, adding him to the secondary. Think a

248
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 3: really good draft. All signs are looking really good at

249
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: the draft. Class looks good going into the season. So

250
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 3: like those are moves that are that that speak to

251
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 3: guys wanting to be here, keeping that window open, and

252
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 3: like the Ravens have always been a draft and developed team,

253
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 3: like generally speaking, and they've been able to to really

254
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 3: reinvest in some of their core pieces this offseason. And

255
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: Hamilton really at the top of that list.

256
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: Yep, absolutely so. Eric to Coasta also did talk about

257
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: other pending contract extensions and Lamar Jackson.

258
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 3: Just as I note is always kind of funny. It's like, hey,

259
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 3: you got Kyle dnaw that was that was good?

260
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 2: What else you got for me?

261
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: That's kind of the state of how things are right now.

262
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: I mean, as I said, there's a long line of guys.

263
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: I mean, let's run through the list, Lamar Jackson, Isaiah Likely,

264
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: Travis Jones, odafe O Way, Tyler Lin, Tyler Linderbaum, who

265
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: else am I missing? I feel like there's other guys.

266
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 3: Kyle Van Noys in the last year. Then you have

267
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 3: like some veteran players that are going into like last

268
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 3: year's of their contracts, like Kyle van Noy or Mark

269
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 3: Andrews or Molin Humphrey, like guys who are like have

270
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 3: been here and have signed additional contracts, but are veteran

271
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 3: players at Ricard, Yeah, Petrick Carr, like you have some

272
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 3: guys and more on that in that mix.

273
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 2: So there's a lot of guys that.

274
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 3: Are coming up towards the end of deals yep o

275
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 3: the rookie or at extension.

276
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: And so basically the question is how many of these

277
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: can you get done? And I thought that Eric Coasa

278
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: was pretty frank about it, as I said, you know,

279
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: not all of them are going to get done. He said,

280
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 1: like fans should expect to see good young players playing

281
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: for other teams in the coming years. Like, sorry, that's

282
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: unfortunately just how the business works. Like you just you can't.

283
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: I think the question is how many can you get done?

284
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: But you can't get them all done? And you know,

285
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,839
Speaker 1: he brought up the twenty nineteen offseason, which was his

286
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: first offseason as general manager, and how difficult that those

287
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: first few months were you lost CJ. Mosley, Eric Weddley,

288
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: you didn't retain Zadarius Smith and Terrell Suggs right all

289
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: out the door and like how painful that off season

290
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: was for him, and so basically you try to like

291
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: minimize the damage. You hope it doesn't get to that level.

292
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 1: But we'll see, you know. And obviously Lamars deal is

293
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: one big piece of that puzzle. But he did say

294
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 1: that it's not that doesn't necessarily preclude them from getting

295
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: other deals done. You know, it's not like that domino

296
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 1: has to fall for next Kyle Hamilton's kiss in point. So,

297
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: but it'll be interesting to see which ones he can

298
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: get done.

299
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 3: They've also he's also been active in getting deals done

300
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 3: prior to them expiring, like Henry Derek Henry as an example,

301
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 3: like he was under contract this year, contract extension done.

302
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 3: Kyle had two more years contract extension done. There's been

303
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 3: a lot of those that have been. Rashad Bateman had

304
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 3: multiple years left on his deal.

305
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: Right, It's kind of been the ones that like you

306
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: didn't see coming as much, you know what I mean,

307
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: Like the ones that almost were a little bit further off.

308
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: He got ahead of those, right, And.

309
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 3: There's gonna be guys that come up, but like they're

310
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: not going to work out extensions with all the guys

311
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 3: who are gonna be free agents to saft Sea since

312
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 3: you're talking about so like there will be a point

313
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 3: months from now where we're talking about this guy's going

314
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 3: to hit free agency, So like that's going to happen

315
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 3: and they can't keep everyone. But that's the nature of

316
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 3: like being a draft and developed team, Like you draft

317
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 3: good young players. You have a quarterback and a that's paid,

318
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 3: and now you got to re reinvigorate the team with

319
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 3: like good young talent. And they're doing that through really

320
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 3: quality drafts and I think, like I said, they're really

321
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: excited about the rookie class as well.

322
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is Eric Costas said, you know, it's a

323
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: blessing and a curse, and it's a blessing and a

324
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: curse that thirty one other NFL teams would love to have. Yeah,

325
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: it's a.

326
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 3: Much better situation than like being like, which of these

327
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 3: guys that we want to.

328
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: Keep for I don't Yeah, I don't let them all

329
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: walk and we'll take the Ravens free agent.

330
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I think it's a much better situation to

331
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 3: be like, we can't keep all these guys.

332
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, heck, just look at the Ravens roster cuts.

333
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: I mean that's another case in point, like the Ravens

334
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: had a bunch of good players that they unfortunately had

335
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: to cut. Three of them got claimed off waivers. Like

336
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: we haven't seen the final waiver claims, but like how

337
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: many other teams had three players get claimed off waivers? Right? Well,

338
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: you know, one of which Jaylen Arma Davis by the Titans,

339
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: who I think were first in line for the waiver

340
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: claims because they had the first overall pick. I don't

341
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: know if he was the very first player claimed, right

342
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: was basically like he was the best player that got cut, yeah,

343
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: you know, and then CJ. Ravenel also the Titans and

344
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: Bo Braids the Giants, and so like people want the

345
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: Ravens players because the Ravens have good players. Yeah, yeah,

346
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: point blank.

347
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 3: And they've been a really good team obviously, and like

348
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 3: they have a great track record of developing young talent

349
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 3: and finding it and so I think that's that speaks

350
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 3: to the coaching and it speaks to the personnel department

351
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 3: in terms of bringing those guys in.

352
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: Specifically, just circling back to the contract negotiations with Lamar Jackson,

353
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: because that's the big one that you know, that's the

354
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: big one. Eric Kassa is not going to shed much

355
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: light on that and where that stands and all that stuff,

356
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: like that's how Lamar wants it. Lamar has also been

357
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: clear that he does not want to talk about his

358
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: contract extension. Eric Costa respects that and is just like said,

359
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: they're ongoing negotiations with these guys, but like not sharing

360
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: details on that.

361
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, And also did make the point that like, whatever

362
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 3: happens with that, it doesn't necessarily flu them, for it's.

363
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 2: Not like everything's on hold.

364
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: It's not the dominant that needs to fall exactly exactly.

365
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 3: So and Lamar A just to be clear here, like

366
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 3: he does have three more years left on his contract.

367
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 3: The thing is next year the cap hit takes a

368
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 3: big jump up to a report of seventy million dollars.

369
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 3: So like the cap hit next year is a massive increase.

370
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 3: And so that's why, like there's all this talk of

371
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 3: in speculation and urgency to some extent around getting an

372
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 3: extension done there yep, yep. So anything else to cost

373
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 3: to stand out to you in the conversation with him,

374
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 3: I mean I thought it was it was a good chance.

375
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 3: This is he does this press conference right before the

376
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 3: season and then we don't hear from him again until

377
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 3: after the season.

378
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: Sorry, Emery Jones. Yeah, the Ravens third round rookie expected back.

379
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: It sounds like not too long from now, he said,

380
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: in the near future, in the near future, and so

381
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 1: that like he'll be able to contribute, you know, he'll

382
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: be in a backup role his rookie year, and especially

383
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: after getting off to such a late start here. He

384
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: hasn't practiced yet, but like they're still very excited for

385
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: his potential and not surprised by anything. He had surgery

386
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,959
Speaker 1: after the combine. The Ravens knew it, knew what they

387
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: were signing up for when they drafted him. They seem

388
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: very still, you know, confident about the player he will become. Yeah,

389
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: I mean, and that this isn't like a lost rookie

390
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: year basically.

391
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like he even said like he could you know,

392
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 3: he's got to get on the field and we'll see, basically,

393
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: but like seems to think that there's potential that he

394
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 3: could he could contribute this season, Like he has that

395
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 3: type of ability, And DaCosta talked about him being a

396
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 3: physical type player who's like just a mauling guy can

397
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 3: get in there and compete at guard, if you know,

398
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 3: depending on how his recovery progresses. So I think the

399
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 3: Ravens are are encouraged by what they're going to have

400
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 3: from him when he finally does get back on the field.

401
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and just talking about roster decisions, you know,

402
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: Eric to Costa talked about basically the challenge that they

403
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: had making those roster cuts down to fifty three. And

404
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: as we mentioned, Jalen armor Davis is really one of

405
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: those guys. And you know, said Eric Costa said, they

406
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: agonized over that decision of whether to release Jalen armor

407
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: Davis or not. Ultimately went with the undrafted rookie Keon

408
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: Martin cornerback. And you know, one thing that we hadn't

409
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: talked about in our breakdown of that, that I hadn't

410
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: really hit me was the contract situations and how that

411
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: played into it. Air the constum made it pretty clear

412
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: that you know, here's Joel Armadavis going to his fourth year.

413
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,439
Speaker 1: We just got done talking about all the guys the

414
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: Ravens have to pay. You know, Joel arma Davis is

415
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: not probably super high, is not high on that list.

416
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: So like probably was gonna walk. Maybe you could have

417
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: brought him back on a deal, a smaller deal or whatever,

418
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,120
Speaker 1: but like probably gonna walk. You probably weren't gonna get

419
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 1: like some big compick for him or Something's not like

420
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a third round compick if he departed,

421
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: if you kept him and then he left him free

422
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: agency after this year, So you keep the younger guy,

423
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: the rookie who you have under contract for four years.

424
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: Like as we talk about the extensions and all the

425
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: different deals the Raves want to get done, well, you

426
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: got to trim the fat somewhere, and like every dollar

427
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: kind of counts, and so the are saying for the

428
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 1: next four years, we're gonna have this rookie on his

429
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: rookie deal, and like that makes a difference.

430
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that that's And he even the Costa

431
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 3: even was like open about it, saying like, hopefully this

432
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 3: is a good decision.

433
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 2: Like it's a tough decision.

434
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:15,679
Speaker 1: It's a really tough.

435
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 3: Call, and like, uh, Jalen Art they felt good about

436
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 3: Jalen armor Davis, like they like him, and they like

437
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 3: it was tough to see him go, and they're like

438
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 3: hopefully we you know, we don't regret that basically, but

439
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 3: like at the end of the day, these undrafted rookies

440
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 3: who were all so excited about like they earned it,

441
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 3: they earned their spot, and there's only fifty three of them,

442
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 3: so you have to make some of those tough calls.

443
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: And I think to some degree it's a it's a

444
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: little bit of a roll of the dice that like this,

445
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: guys stay healthy enough. I mean, you have four top

446
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 1: flight corners yeap, like Marlon Humphrey, Nate Wiggins, Jay R

447
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: Alexander and Cheetah bay Ouzie. Like you hope that that's enough.

448
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: And then if you know, if you need to because

449
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: probably the fifth guy, if you're just putting somebody out

450
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: there would be a between jay On, Norma Davis, and TJ. Tampa.

451
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: It'd be tight, you know, like which one of those

452
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 1: guys would be the first one up after them? Who

453
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: was number five? But TJ. Tampa is in the second

454
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: year of his contract, whereas you know, like if you

455
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: you you're not only you're also looking for beyond this

456
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: year and hopefully you don't get down to your fifth corner,

457
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: Like hopefully your fourth corner isn't really playing anything but

458
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: special teams. Yeah, that's the hope. Yeah, and so and

459
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: to a degree, and some of those guys have had

460
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: injury history, but to a degree, you're kind of rolling

461
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: the dice.

462
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 3: And the last point on that is the Ravens DA

463
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 3: Costa really liked the two rookie six round picks who

464
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 3: ended up on injured reserve. Their seasons are over and

465
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 3: be A and Robert Longerbeam like, they looked good and

466
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 3: the Ravens really liked them. But so they're not going

467
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: to be a factor this season. But as you projected out,

468
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 3: like those guys they think are going to be players

469
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 3: who are in the mix in that second era.

470
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 2: They like those guys.

471
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cone's got a pretty big reab assignment ahead of him.

472
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,360
Speaker 1: Reports or that that was a major knee injury. Yeah,

473
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: but like you know, assuming he can come back from that,

474
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: then yeah, I think those are guys that will certainly

475
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: compete for depth positions next year in the secondary.

476
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,639
Speaker 3: YEP. So we're gonna take a quick break when we

477
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 3: come back, we'll dive into the practice squad. It's not

478
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 3: just the active roster. The practice squad also has been

479
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 3: filled out. So we're gonna dive into that conversation and

480
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 3: give you some of our takeaways. You're listening to the

481
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 3: Lounge podcast. We are coming to you from the Seat

482
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 3: Geek Studio. We also want to mention our partners at

483
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 3: Draftking Sportsbook. They are an official sports betting partner of

484
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens Draftking Sportsbook. The Crown is yours. So

485
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 3: the fifty three man roster was set on Tuesday, and

486
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 3: on Wednesday, the team fills out the practice squad, and

487
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 3: so I'm going to run through the practice squad here

488
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 3: just to give everyone an update on what this looks like,

489
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 3: and then we'll have conversations about some of the individual

490
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 3: guys here. I think the headliner on the practice squad

491
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 3: is a familiar name, somebody that a lot of Ravens

492
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 3: fans were excited to see end up back here in Baltimore.

493
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 3: That's quarterback Tyler Huntley. He ends up on the practice squad.

494
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 3: Of course, spent some time with the Browns this summer,

495
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 3: but Snoop is back in Baltimore. I'll run through the

496
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 3: rest of this year.

497
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: We got Snoop and Loop. We got Snoop a Loop.

498
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 2: There you go.

499
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: It's pretty good.

500
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 3: You can start something there, pretty elite. All right, let

501
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 3: me run through this list here. The Ravens have running

502
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 3: back de Ernest Johnson. They also brought back wider severs

503
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 3: Keith Kirkwood and Anthony Miller. They also brought back Brent

504
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 3: Urban obviously has been here for a long time, running

505
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 3: back Lucas Scott, center, Nick seymac defensive end Camon Rutger,

506
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 3: defensive back Marquise Robinson, guard Jared Penning, tight end a Zayir,

507
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 3: Mitchell Paydon, linebacker Chandler Martin, defensive back DeAndre Jackson, linebacker

508
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 3: Malik Ham, defensive back Thomas Graham, and then lastly offensive

509
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 3: tackle girod Christian Lichtenhon. And then they have an international

510
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 3: practice squad signing of Basil Akoye, a defensive tackle. So

511
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 3: there's your practice squad that's in place for the upcoming season.

512
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 3: Of course, like the practice squad changes pretty rapidly over

513
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 3: the course of a season, but that's your initial practice squad.

514
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 3: Just as a reminder, teams can use three elevations for

515
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 3: guys on the practice squad to come up and play

516
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 3: on the active roster while they remain on the practice squad.

517
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 3: And so what after those three the team has to

518
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 3: make the decision either bring them up to the fifty

519
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: three or not and so I'm sure that will be

520
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,959
Speaker 3: part of the equation for some of the guys on

521
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 3: that list, But what stands out to you and looking

522
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 3: at that list overall, Yeah.

523
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: I think it's a good list.

524
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 3: You know.

525
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: Unfortunately the Ravens didn't get some guys that they would

526
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: have liked on their practice squad. Bo Braid exactly went

527
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: to the New York Giants. You know. The other interesting

528
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: one here is Garrett dellingger the seventh round offensive lineman,

529
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: is not on their initial practice squad, so we'll see

530
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: on that. Have not seen reports yet of where he's going,

531
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 1: but that's kind of of note. But I really like,

532
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: in particular Gerrod Christian Lichtenhan. I thought that he was

533
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,959
Speaker 1: he was good. I really liked what I saw from

534
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 1: him in practice, and it wouldn't surprise me. Eric Takasa said,

535
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, we had three undrafted rookies that made the

536
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: fifty three, and we had really five that we felt

537
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: like were good enough to be on the fifty three. Honestly,

538
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me if Girod was one of those guys.

539
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 1: I thought he's a big, tall, tough offensive tackle. And

540
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: when you look at the reports of who the Ravens

541
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: paid how they paid their guys. When they first recruited

542
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: him as un rookies, he was one of the top ones.

543
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: So I think it's good that they got him back.

544
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: I like Malke Cam guy continues to just like make

545
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 1: plays in preseason games like he's been He was one

546
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: of the great stories. Baltimore kid grew up a Ravens fan,

547
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: made the fifty three man roster originally, and has suffered

548
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: back to back knee injuries that have cost them really

549
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 1: the season. And so to see him like come back,

550
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: play well and stick with the team. Happy to see that.

551
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,360
Speaker 3: I mean two years ago when he made the team

552
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 3: as an undrafted rookie, like he was the guy that

553
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 3: we were talking about and the excitement around this and

554
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 3: the story and all that. Yep, and injuries have have

555
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 3: derailed him, but it's good to see him stick here

556
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 3: on the practice squad for the time being.

557
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: I like Chandler Martin inside linebacker. I thought he you know,

558
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: when you were talking about Chandler Martin versus Jay Higgins,

559
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: like that was you know, they were pushing each other.

560
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: I thought both both played pretty darn well. Marquis Robinson,

561
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: big tall defensive back, he impressed me. Rutger can get

562
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: after the quarterback Nick same ac. I'm really happy that

563
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: they were able to retain him seventh round pick from

564
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 1: year ago, like just continue to develop him and give

565
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: you some more depth on the interior. They ended up

566
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: going with Corey Bullock as that he kind of beat

567
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: out Nick same act, but I'm glad they were able

568
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 1: to keep him.

569
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: Also with like same act there.

570
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 3: Like Bullock's a good example, like he was on the

571
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 3: practice squad last year and then he just continued to

572
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 3: improve and work and then earned his spot on the

573
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 3: fifty three. And like there's no reason that couldn't be

574
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 3: saying Mac next year, like that he could that he

575
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 3: could just continue to work and develop and approve and

576
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 3: find his way out of the city three meters roster

577
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 3: this year or beyond exactly.

578
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're gonna have openings at guard next year.

579
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: Ben Cleveland's on a one year deal. I'm pretty sure

580
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: fought Lele is going into his fourth year, so there's

581
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 1: gonna be opportunities. Yeah, Emery Jones will be competing that anyway.

582
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: Getting down in the rabbit hole here, Lucas Scott, I

583
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: am glad they kept Lucas Scott fullback with a great

584
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 1: backstory coming from Army. Dude like played everything at Army

585
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: and has come here and kind of been the protege

586
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: for pat Ricard and and uh yeah, I thought, I

587
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 1: think he flashed to me in the preseason games. So

588
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: when you kind of project out to this team, you know,

589
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: we love pat Ricard and and uh, you know, I

590
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: hope he's here for a long time. He resigned on

591
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: a one year deal this past this offseason, could Lucas

592
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: Scott potentially, you know, a long term replacement for pat someday.

593
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 1: I think that possibility exists.

594
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 3: So then the other guys, I was, I'm glad the

595
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 3: Rams were able to keep Anthony Miller Keith Kirkwood.

596
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 2: Like those guys. I've said this before.

597
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 3: Anthony Miller was playing snaps down the stretch in the

598
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 3: playoff game in Buffalo.

599
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: And Keith Kirkwood like just makes plays in practice too,

600
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: Like I was pretty good. Like the one thing that

601
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,479
Speaker 1: kind of gets overlooked is the importance of a practice

602
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 1: squad on on just like sharpening your team over the

603
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 1: course of a regular season, Like, those guys are important.

604
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: The better your practice squad is, the more they test

605
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: your starters, yeah, and who they're practicing against, and and

606
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: like when they're trying to simulate some great you know,

607
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase or whatever, like or T Higgins. Wait, like

608
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: here's Keith Kirkwood, who's a big body dude. Like they

609
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know if this is the case,

610
00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: but they might be like, you're T Higgins this week,

611
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: like out there and simulate him. And the best impression

612
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: that you can give, the better the defensive back is

613
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: going to be for it.

614
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

615
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: And so like having good players on your practice squad

616
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: matters for that as well as just depth in case

617
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: you have injuries and whatnot. Anthony Miller is a great

618
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: example getting caught up last year and played well yeah

619
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: when he came up to the game. So I was

620
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: happy to see those guys land back too. Then the

621
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: other real purpose of the practice squad is to also

622
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: develop guys. Right, Like some of these prospects on here,

623
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: they're just developmental players, young undrafted rookies or whatnot. But

624
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, you also talk about guys who are ready

625
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: to step up and play in case you need it.

626
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: And Thomas Graham the cornerback, here's a guy that has

627
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: twelve games under his belt. Right, So like when you

628
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: talk about John armor Davis and the decision to part

629
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: with him, well you didn't just keep a bunch of

630
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: undrafted rookies behind him. You also keep Thomas Graham on

631
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: your practice squad who has NFL game experience in case

632
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: you need to activate somebody for game there or whatnot,

633
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: to just like get another kind of more veteran cornerback

634
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: up on your your game day roster. So I think

635
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: that's another like practice squad move that makes sense for

636
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: the now.

637
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 3: And then Brent Urban, as I said on our fifty

638
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 3: three Maniac, I don't even think Brant turned in his

639
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 3: key card. You know, it's just like you can keep that.

640
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 3: I bet exactly, buddy, you're gonna be back here tomorrow.

641
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 3: We'll see you and it won't surprise me if I

642
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 3: mentioned like the three call ups, like if he's a guy,

643
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 3: it could be situation dependent on Like, Okay, this is

644
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 3: a team that we feel like, matchup wise, we really

645
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 3: want you on the field, and.

646
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: They run the ball a lot, right, they would go

647
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 1: a little heavier on the D line.

648
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 3: Exactly like I could see him. I could certainly see

649
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 3: him on the fifty three before the season's over and

650
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 3: playing games prior to that point and getting called up.

651
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 3: Dearanus Johnson was a guy they were able to sign

652
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 3: late in training camp and then like he ran hard

653
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 3: in the preseason, so like you just bring in another

654
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 3: veteran running back. He's done it in this league and

655
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 3: you know, I thought he look pretty good in the preseason.

656
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 2: Snoop. It's it's fun to have him back.

657
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 3: I mean, like he's a guy like I saw him today,

658
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 3: a big smile on his face and wrapped him up and.

659
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: Like like he never left.

660
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it felt that way.

661
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 3: It just felt like this the guy that's never left,

662
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 3: and like I've always liked him. He's got a great

663
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 3: relationship with Lamar Jackson and as another Florida guy, they've

664
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 3: known each other forever, and like it's just I like

665
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 3: having him around here. I think he's you know, he's

666
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 3: played well when he's been thrown into action, and I

667
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 3: just think that, like he's got a great mindset and

668
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 3: energy and it's nice to have Snoop back.

669
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally agree.

670
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 3: So there's your practice squad and a lot happening here
