1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: Welcome into the lounge presented by Draft Kings. We have

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: the Ravens initial fifty three man roster. Garrett got Crisp

3
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 1: Clean laminated fresh off Twitter. You never laminate the initial

4
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:16,279
Speaker 1: fifty three man roster.

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 2: That game is unlaminated. Anyway.

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: We're here to give you our takeaways from the initial

7
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: roster and even talk about what the next moves could be,

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: because there's always some additional moves as this whole thing

9
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: shakes out. But the keyword here initial, Yes, fifty three

10
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: man roster. So we're not going to go through all

11
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: of them right now, but let's highlight some of the

12
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: bigger decisions here. Okay, let we'll start a quarterback. Sure,

13
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley's on the team. Josh Johnson is not, so

14
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,959
Speaker 1: Anthony Brown is not, and Anthony Brown is not, right,

15
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: so Tyler Huntley is the backup quarterback as right now.

16
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: I think we both think that Josh Johnson could be

17
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: back on the practice squad or whatnot. You could even

18
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: be on the fifth y three who knows. Yeah, but

19
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: as of right now, they opted to keep Tyler Huntley

20
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: and not Josh Johnson. Now, part of that could be

21
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: vested VET status Josh Johnson is a vested vet. Yeah,

22
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley is not correct, right, So if Tyler Huntley

23
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: were to be released, he would have to go through waivers,

24
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: just Josh Johnson does not, right.

25
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 3: I mean that could be a part of it. I

26
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 3: think all you take an account all those things, and

27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 3: I think that you know, I think I said before

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 3: both of us had Tyler Huntley as our on our

29
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 3: fifty three man roster. We both predicted that. I think

30
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 3: that Tyler Huntley to me, did enough to win that job.

31
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 3: I think it was a competition in training camp. I

32
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 3: still think that Snoop did enough to win that job.

33
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 3: I think that he think it was close, and Josh Johnson,

34
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 3: especially as camp and the preseason went along, really kind

35
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: of ramped up the competition there. But I still think

36
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 3: that that Snoop won that spot, and so I think

37
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 3: that he goes in as the number two quarterback. And

38
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 3: I do think that I think that Josh Johnson will

39
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: be in the Castle in some capacity very soon.

40
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: Again, yep, all right, let's go on to running back.

41
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

42
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: Keaton Mitchell, the guy we've talked about a lot. A

43
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: lot of fans have been on the Keaton Mitchell bandwagon.

44
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: So have we both Adam on our fifty three man roster.

45
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: Keith Mitchell is on He's on the initial fifty three,

46
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: so congrats to him. That's one of those feel good stories. Yeah,

47
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: dad played for the Ravens.

48
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a couple feel good stories here.

49
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a couple feel good ones. So, Anthony Mitchell

50
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: played for the Ravens back in the day. You were

51
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: an a Ravens fan, you were root for the Browns.

52
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 3: I was an initial I was. I was a Raves

53
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 3: fan before they were the Ravens.

54
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's pathetic.

55
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 3: Me the original, the original Ravens.

56
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 1: Keaton Mitchell's dad, Anthony Mitchell, returned that blockfield goal against

57
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: the Titans in the two thousand divisional playoffs, return it

58
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: ninety yards for a touch. Oh it's a great moment. Yeah,

59
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: the best moments of Ravens history. Yeah, sorry, I digress.

60
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: I know. I think I think that it is an

61
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 3: awesome story. Like to play for the team as an

62
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 3: undrafted player who your dad played for. I just think that,

63
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 3: like that is an incredible story. Yeah, and it's I

64
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 3: just think like with Keith Mitchell, we saw it in practice,

65
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: like you saw her to see over the course of

66
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 3: training camp like, oh, this guy's got some juice. He

67
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 3: looks really good.

68
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

69
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: Before then I thought, in like OTA's mini camp, I

70
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: was like, this guy's this guy's speed is legit.

71
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 2: You know.

72
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: He I think he benefited from the fact early on JK.

73
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 3: Dobbins wasn't on the field and training camp with Liburn

74
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: Field at all doing the off season program. No gust

75
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 3: during the off season program, and you know, they limited

76
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 3: Gus's reps to some extent in camp, and I just

77
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 3: think that he took advantage of that opportunity, Like he's

78
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 3: got world class speed. We saw it, yep in the

79
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 3: preseason games. He showed it against the Eagles, he showed

80
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 3: it against the Commanders.

81
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: So he means just he was just too good. He

82
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 2: was just too good to cut.

83
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

84
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: I think that's what it comes down to, agree, boils

85
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: down to dude was just too good to cut.

86
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and practices and he showed.

87
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: But when you put it on tap and preseason games especially, sorry,

88
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: you're not making it to waivers.

89
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he he was like, it's a deep running

90
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 3: back group. JK.

91
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 2: Dobbins, Gus Edwards, Justice Hill, Melvin Gordon, did not make it.

92
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 3: Melvil Gordon did not, So I don't know what the

93
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: role will be for Keaton Mitchell as we like go

94
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 3: into the regular season. It's hard to see a path

95
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: for him to get much playing time if all those

96
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: guys stay healthy. But the fact that he's on the

97
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 3: fifty three speaks to his ability, the fact that he

98
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: earned a spot, and he deserves a lot of credit

99
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 3: for that.

100
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: Completely agree all right, wide receiver. As we predicted, the

101
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: six wide receiver spot went to Tyland Wallace. No surprises

102
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: with the top five, So congrats also to Tylan Wallace.

103
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: That's one thing I will I'll just say as a detour,

104
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: a lot of focus on cutdown day gets put on

105
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: the cut.

106
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 3: But dreams are coming true to make the day team.

107
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, dreams come true today.

108
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: You know it's got a little NFL draft flavor to it, right,

109
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: and so congrats to Tylan Wallace also, Now he's been

110
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: on the team the past couple of years. But I'm

111
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: just saying it was a pretty stacked wide receiver group.

112
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: It wasn't a given. He was a bubble guy for

113
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 1: sure coming up starting at start training camp, and for

114
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: him to make the team based on I think not

115
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: just he's going on special teams, but he progressed, he

116
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: grew as an offensive player. He showed that with two

117
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the first two reasons in games, like congrats

118
00:04:59,720 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: to him.

119
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 3: He looks as good as he ever has here, Like

120
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 3: this is his best camp by a mile. I thought

121
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 3: he is taking a big step. He showed it in

122
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 3: the preseason with touchdowns and back to back games like

123
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 3: he's going to be one of the valuable special teamers.

124
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: Like I think there will be a role for him

125
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 3: on game days. My expectation.

126
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: That's the interesting thing is you I think they have

127
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: to have six wide receivers active. They don't have to,

128
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: but I think Tyle is because of what he does

129
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: on special teams, makes a good case to be active.

130
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 2: And that's six wide receivers active on game That's a lot, that.

131
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 3: Is and that's six by you may view just more

132
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 3: as a special teamer, yeah, but still really important. And

133
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 3: also like on that six, those six receivers being active.

134
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 3: We'll see if Bateman is ready to go as an

135
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 3: active player at week one. Certainly hope so, but we'll

136
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 3: have to wait and see if that's the case. You know,

137
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 3: he's not you know, he's still come back from that injury,

138
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 3: so we'll see the exposition.

139
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: Is that he will hope.

140
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, uh tight end their surprises there. Top three,

141
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews, Isaia Likely, and Charlie Kohler all made it.

142
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: Travis Vocalek, that's the rookie did not. Yeah, he would

143
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: be an a logical practice bug, can of it. I

144
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: think the Ravens would probably cross their fingers and hope

145
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: that happens.

146
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 3: Good good preseason, two touchdowns, one games like one game,

147
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 3: really good preseason, but just not a spot for him,

148
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 3: Like when you're when you're in a roster crunch and

149
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 3: like you have a really good tight enmra, I'm just

150
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 3: not a spot for him.

151
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

152
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: There's been a number of big name tight ends who

153
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: have been released from what I've seen on X. All right,

154
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: so next up offensive line, This is going to be

155
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: an interesting one. Benk Cleveland made the team. Uh, you know,

156
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: he was a guy that we talked a lot about.

157
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: Didn't know, you know, what's the spot for him. Did

158
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: the Ravens explore, you know, possible trade options for him.

159
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 2: We don't know anything about that. But he made the team.

160
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: And I think part of this is because right now,

161
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: if you needed a backup guard to John Simpson, the

162
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: backup guard that John Simpson I think will be Patrick McCarey,

163
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: maybe it would be Bank Cleveland.

164
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 2: I think it would be McCarey.

165
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: But backup interior guy benk Cleveland would probably be that

166
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: over solid generally speaking, especially he's the backup right guard

167
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: to Kevin Zeidler. And once again with Cleveland, if you

168
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: were to waive him, he goes through waivers and here's

169
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: a third round pick, that's a redwood tree.

170
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: He probably gets claimed. Yeah, so if you don't have

171
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 2: you know, if you can keep them, keep them. It

172
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 2: is kind of the viewpoint that I had.

173
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 3: They also they did work him at tackle too a camp.

174
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I would think for a would be your

175
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: your backup right tackle. But Cleveland does have that ability

176
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 3: if they needed him to play there for some reason.

177
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: Yep.

178
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: So I think that he gives you the versatility there.

179
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 3: I think also with Cleveland, like, I think he's played

180
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 3: pretty well in games, and I like, I know that

181
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 3: people made a lot out of the one play against

182
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 3: the Eagles where he just get got burned by Jalen Carter,

183
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 3: but like that's a that's a premier draft pick and

184
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 3: just be one of the best players in the drafts.

185
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 3: He just he beat him bad. But like I think,

186
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 3: in totality, Ben Cleveland played pretty well in those games,

187
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 3: and he's been in he's played, so he's has experience.

188
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 3: He could step in if needed.

189
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, Sam Mustafer my guy.

190
00:07:58,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

191
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: Sam Musford did not make the team, which is a

192
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: little bit surprising to me, which is an indication that

193
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: Pat McCarey, I guess, would be the backup center. Now,

194
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: I think there's a decent chance must For, being another

195
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: vested veteran, could land on the practice squad or back

196
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: on the fifty three from all we know, and be

197
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: that backup center.

198
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 3: He could be.

199
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: Now, if he's back on fifty three, that's a lot

200
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: of offensive line, and that's ten offensive line.

201
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, they could put him on the practice squad and say,

202
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 3: if if Linderbaum were to go down in the middle

203
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,239
Speaker 3: of a game, we could have McCarey step into a game.

204
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: But then you would moving forward, if you were at

205
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: three games or whatever, then must For comes up right right, And.

206
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 3: I think that's what and that's partly true, and that's

207
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: part of the beauty of of Pat McCarey, as we've

208
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 3: said a million times, and I think that also that

209
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 3: is maybe part of the reason that you want to

210
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 3: keep it, you know, Ben Cleveland, for example, is so

211
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 3: that if if mcarey is truly your backup, your number

212
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 3: one backup at five.

213
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: Offensive position, back up at left guard and center, let's say,

214
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: and right guard and left tackle and right, he's the

215
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: primary backup at left tackle right, So right, if he's

216
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: the backup at four spots, right, I mean he backed

217
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: up a right tackle.

218
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 2: Two.

219
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: If he's the backup at all five spots, then number

220
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: he's a six guy right and the number one backup

221
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: at all those spots. Like if you have two injuries,

222
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: you got a problem basically, right, and so you need

223
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: to have depth there, right exactly.

224
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 3: I think he I mean, I think they probably. I

225
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 3: don't know if he backs up all five like in

226
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 3: a game, like if if someone goes down in the

227
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 3: middle of a game.

228
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 2: But he might he might.

229
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: He might be like Connie Stanley went down to the game,

230
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: it would be Pat McCarey. If John Simpson went down

231
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: to the game, I think right now he'll probably bet

232
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: Pat mcarey at left guard over Sala and over Bank Cleveland.

233
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: We haven't seen Blank Cleveland play really hardly any left

234
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: guard this summer. There's not another center backup center on

235
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: the roster. So it's Pat McCarey, right, yeah, right guard,

236
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 1: it would be Cleveland and Pat McCarey, I don't know,

237
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: might go Pat mcarey, yeah, right tackle, it's Pat McCarey

238
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: or Cleveland, but probably first up or Cleveland or carry.

239
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. McCarey might be first up there.

240
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: I know he really, he really might pay the backup

241
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 3: at all five spots, and so that's part of the

242
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 3: reason you need to keep some extra depth there.

243
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: Yes, it's kind of crazy to go through that, all right,

244
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: Next up we have the inside linebackers.

245
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: All right, Before we go defense, let's take a book

246
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 3: break and then we'll come back and dive into the defense.

266
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: I was more, more and more I thought about it.

267
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: I was like, del Shawn's on the team.

268
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 2: I'll give you kudos, and.

269
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 3: He is and he is so a little t is there.

270
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 3: But we'll come back to that.

271
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: Well might as well.

272
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,719
Speaker 3: Now, No, I want to let this moment. I want

273
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 3: to I want to stretch it out. You are just impossible.

274
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 2: A fine defensive line.

275
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, as of right now, the Ravens, as we

276
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 1: both predicted pretty late, on the defensive line, only four

277
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: defensive linemen. That Michael Pierce, Uh, Travis Jones, Justin Medavik,

278
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 1: and Broderick Washington are the four and then really Brent

279
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: So Brent Urban got cut.

280
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: I expect that that he'll be back very soon.

281
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:39,719
Speaker 3: That's what happened him last year.

282
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 2: He was back, He's been, He's been on this merry

283
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: go round before.

284
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 3: Would not surprise me if I see brand Urban in

285
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 3: the cafeteria, you.

286
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 2: Know, get dinner tonight.

287
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 3: I mean I was gonna say tomorrow morning, get eggs.

288
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 3: For sure. Sure, I think I think that Urban's on

289
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: this team.

290
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: I would completely but my week one now that was

291
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: so that would be five defensive linemen if once Urban

292
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: is back on yeah, which we I shouldn't say once.

293
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: If we assume he will be yeah, that I guess

294
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 1: that would be very thin on the defensive line without

295
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: him obviously. All right now inside linebacker, you've had your

296
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: movement to gloat about del teump Phelips.

297
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 2: Congratulations del Seawn. I'm sorry I ever doubted that you

298
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 2: were going to make the fifty three. I mean a

299
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 2: good player.

300
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,199
Speaker 1: I mean a he's from a special seasons standpoint, and

301
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: he's done more defensively, not just in practice. Remember when

302
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: he had like ten picks practice. Yeah, might be a

303
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: little hyperbole, but he had. The guy was getting making

304
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: plays in practice.

305
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 3: He would make. He made plays honestly, like like beyond

306
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,079
Speaker 3: my prediction, Like this is a guy who earned his

307
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 3: way another another one a job and won a job.

308
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 3: I think, and John Harball said after the Bucks game,

309
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 3: like he took a step as a defensive player. Oh, completely,

310
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 3: And we saw that in practice, like he was making places,

311
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 3: he was in the right spot at the right time,

312
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 3: he was.

313
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 2: In a tight race.

314
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: I mean, he had Christian Welch and Josh Ross, two

315
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 1: other good players who were both you know, showing what

316
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: they can do on special teams. Welch for the past

317
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: couple of years has been a special team's kind of

318
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 1: core player.

319
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 3: Both those guys have been on the fifty three before

320
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 3: Josh and Yeah.

321
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 2: So he beat both of those guys out in neither

322
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 2: of those two made it.

323
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: The Ravens have five and sun linebackers Roquan Pq, Trenton Simpson,

324
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Malie Harrison, and del Shaun Phillips. Yes, so congrats to Del,

325
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: Sean and the others. Outside linebacker. There is a real

326
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: feel good story here and one that I think Honestly,

327
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 1: if I'm saying the biggest surprise, this one kind of

328
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: caught me a little bit more by surprise. And that's

329
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 1: Malik Ham, the undrafted rookie made the team. And I'm

330
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: really happy for what a field good story. You know,

331
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: went to Baltimore City, grew up in Baltimore, like dreaming

332
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 1: of becoming a Ravens player one day. Just a great

333
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: story of him making the fifty three.

334
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, this is a guy. He's from the city, like,

335
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 3: and you grew up rooting for like the hometown team, yep.

336
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 3: And then you know, he goes a Lafay at college.

337
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,839
Speaker 3: It's not like he went to some premier program. He

338
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 3: goes a Lafay at college, ends up coming here as

339
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 3: an undrafted guy, and like he just kind of quietly

340
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 3: I thought, played really well. And honestly, I think he

341
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 3: made the team during the commander's drying practices.

342
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: I think that in the large part that yeah, I

343
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: mean I think he had caught people's attention before then,

344
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: like he was practicing well, and then in his practice,

345
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean he was a wrecking ball.

346
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 3: He was just putting guys on the back.

347
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was.

348
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: He had two really good days and then he went

349
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: out in the preseason. He got a sack in the

350
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: preseason opener, forced a fumble against the Commanders in that game.

351
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: I mean, another dude who just in practice. Now, I

352
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: think the reason that I say it was a surprise

353
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: is a lot of us. I think before the Ravens

354
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: signed j Davion Clowney, were like, Malie Kam might make

355
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: this team.

356
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

357
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: Then they signed Clowney and you're like, all right, they

358
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: have more depth than at outside linebacker. They don't really

359
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: need him as much. But the other news of the day,

360
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: Tyas Bowser remains on the NFI list, so he's gonna

361
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: miss the first four games, at least a minimum of

362
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: four games. Malie Ham is kind of, you know, the

363
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: Sam linebacker, the other Sam linebacker in the room. Now,

364
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: you know Ojaba could play over there. Those guys are

365
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: kind of universal. You know, they're versatile and what they

366
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: can play. Jadeveon Clowny can play over there and all that.

367
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 1: But if you're talking about a guy you know who

368
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: can move, go backwards, play in space a little bit,

369
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: Malie cam has has shown some of that ability. And

370
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: I think with Tyas Bowser out for the first game

371
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: for four games, Malie Cam has an opportunity to potentially

372
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: have some defensive snaps.

373
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be interesting if he ends up, you know,

374
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 3: being in that in a spot early in the year

375
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 3: where he plays.

376
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, which I mean right now the other they have

377
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: four guys, so it's not like they're really thin thin

378
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: like last year. Remember when they went into the Week

379
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: one at outside linebacker, they had like two outside linebackers.

380
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 2: You're playing Houston was playing basically the whole game in

381
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 2: no way. Yeah, So it's not like that. I mean

382
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 2: they have four guys.

383
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: You have oh way a Jabo, Jadeveon Clowney, and then

384
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: the rookie Tavius Robinson. So you know, Millie Cam could

385
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: be a game day in active. I don't know, but

386
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I think perhaps the Bowser move of

387
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: him staying on NiFi impacted Malie Cam making team.

388
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 2: And he just won a spot again.

389
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, Bowser, you know, we had this conversation and on

390
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 3: the fifty three man prediction, and both of us were expected,

391
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 3: you know, because the indication previously was that he'd be

392
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 3: ready week one. Yeah, and so kind of surprising disappointing

393
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 3: news on the Bowser front to find out that he's

394
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 3: not going to be available for the first month of

395
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 3: the season.

396
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

397
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: I mean he's on the side field and like shorts

398
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: and T shirt kind of working. You know, at least

399
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: he's out on the field at this point we see him. Yeah, right,

400
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: he's out there kind of working on his own as

401
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: he come back comes back from this knee ailment. You know,

402
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: John Harball has described it as a agitated knee.

403
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 2: I believe, right, But I mean the guy hasn't he

404
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: hasn't practiced at all.

405
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean long it became clear, like when half

406
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 3: out right, it became clear like then when he wasn't

407
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: on the practice field this week, like he's not ready

408
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 3: week one, and so then you start thinking is going

409
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 3: to be ready week two? I don't know. Like so

410
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 3: then it's like, all right, maybe week three. And then

411
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: at that point you really have to like you're going

412
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 3: through this roster crunch.

413
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: And the Ravens have not been a team that rushed

414
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: guys back from injuries. Yeah, Like they usually give them

415
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: a runway, tyas Bowser had to runway last year.

416
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 2: You know, he took kind of a runway comeback from

417
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: the Achilles.

418
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: He missed what the first six yeah games, I think yeah,

419
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: six ' seven something like that, and then he came back. So,

420
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: you know, I think they want to make sure that

421
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 1: guys come back and they are good, good, you know,

422
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 1: they are ready to roll.

423
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 2: And so tya spouser will have that opportunity.

424
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 1: Is disappointing, but to our point, I think they do

425
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 1: have a little depth at outside linebacker where they can

426
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: kind of sustain that.

427
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

428
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 3: In credit to Malee cam Yeah, I did. I think

429
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 3: that like two awesome stories with Keaton Mitchell and Malie

430
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 3: Camps who undrafted rookies too, have connections to this team,

431
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 3: connections to the city, and they end up making it

432
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 3: like storybook.

433
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 2: Yeah that's pretty cool. Yeah, very cool.

434
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: Next up, cornerback. This was another very interesting thing.

435
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 3: This was honestly maybe the biggest surprise kind of on

436
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 3: the other end.

437
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the surprise cut was Kyu Kelly, the fifth

438
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: round pick out of Stanford. You know, we say it's

439
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: a surprise just because you don't see the Ravens really

440
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 1: cut rookies all that often.

441
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 2: Now, Tyler Baby, the sixth round pick, didn't make it

442
00:17:59,119 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 2: last year.

443
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 3: Go Sean Way was a fifth round corner who they

444
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 3: ended traded.

445
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, so not just to cut and particularly at

446
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: a position where the Ravens want depth and have had injuries.

447
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: You know, Kyu's had kind of an up and down

448
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: training camp in preseason. Made the play on the goal line,

449
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: but also giving up some catches as well, So that

450
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: one was one. I think we both had him on

451
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: our fifty three but didn't end up going that way.

452
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 1: And really who they opted the player that made it

453
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: on the fifty three that we weren't so sure about

454
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: was is Arthur Molett, the veteran kind of slot option

455
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: from Pittsburgh. Previously at Pittsburgh. Part of this I think

456
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 1: might be when you're really looking at it, the Ravens

457
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: need more help at slot in the immediate than they

458
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: do outside.

459
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 2: They have more depth outside.

460
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 3: Well, they also added I think they just they opted

461
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 3: to go with the veterans Mulette. They also signed Ronald Darby.

462
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 3: Now Ronald Darby wasn't really like when they brought him, man,

463
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 3: you knew he was gonna be a team. I mean,

464
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 3: they could start a week one, but like they said,

465
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,160
Speaker 3: we want to get the veterans. We want to get

466
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 3: veteran depth there and they went and they got Derby.

467
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 3: They signed Malette previously, so like they opted for the veterans,

468
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 3: and those guys are more NFL ready right now to

469
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 3: step into play right away, and they might have to

470
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 3: do that early in the season as Marlin Humphrey is

471
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 3: currently working his way back from Ninjuri.

472
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: Totally. Yeah.

473
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're looking at slot corner, it's Mullette,

474
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: Ardarius and then some combination of safeties yea, you know,

475
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 1: Hamilton or Stevens or something like that. But Mallette could

476
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: be playing a fair amount of snaps week one.

477
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 3: If they go three wide week one. Like, I think

478
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 3: it's possible that your three corners out there are Derby, Rock, Rock,

479
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 3: and Mallette now possible. I think it's I think it's possible.

480
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 3: I think that actually, if if I were doing it,

481
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 3: I would think it would probably be Brandon Stevens over

482
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 3: Derby right now. But I think that that is a

483
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 3: possible mix. And I just think that basically, like again,

484
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 3: they opted to go with the veterans at that spot.

485
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 3: I think Kye would be an ideal practice squad candidate

486
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 3: as long as he clears waivers, which you know is

487
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 3: fit on pick is is anyone's guess.

488
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: Well, the other player at cornerback who the Ravens cut,

489
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: Kevon Seymour. This to me is another Brent Urban situation.

490
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: This is could be back, you know, the very next

491
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: day whatever, later this week, in short in short notice,

492
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: could be back on this team or the practice squad.

493
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: And he's he could be on the practice squad and

494
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: elevated for the first you can be elevated three times.

495
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: Let's just say Marlon Humphrey misses whatever. We don't know one, two, three,

496
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 1: We don't know how many games he could be elevated

497
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: for each of those games that Marlin is out. Well,

498
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: the other one seeing them do this with Kevon Seymour

499
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: in previous years.

500
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 3: Also, Yeah, the other one too in that mix is

501
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 3: Darryl Worley. The Ravens released him. Veteran player, you know,

502
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 3: been a corner transition to safety full time. He could

503
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 3: also been a special teamer. I think he's another ideal

504
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 3: candidate for either fifty three or practice squad.

505
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: Completely agree, Uh, And then they're real surprise at safety.

506
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, Daryl Worley was really the guy.

507
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 2: Uh.

508
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: The other four, you know, Kyle Hamilton, Marcus William Gino

509
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 1: Stone and then our areas would be kind of the

510
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: fourth safety slash. Brandon Stevens is you know, a safety

511
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: slash corner.

512
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, cele right now probably really Brandon is more corner.

513
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's corner slash safety. You can put

514
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 2: the corner first. Yeah, and then.

515
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: Obviously no surprises specialists. So that's the initial fifty three

516
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: man roster. We've kind of talked through some of the

517
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: moves that we think could be coming next. You know,

518
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 1: Pepe would be an obvious he's on the initial fifty

519
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 1: three to Mary Williams, but we expect that he's going

520
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 1: to go on IR. He had ankle surgery, expected back

521
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: hopefully in October at some point. But you know, that's

522
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: an IR situation.

523
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and hopefully, you know, hopefully Marlin is not an

524
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 3: IR situation. It does not sound like that's the case,

525
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 3: is not, John Harbaugh said. John Harbaugh said was asked

526
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 3: about that today, you know, whether the timeline remains now,

527
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 3: it's kind of funny, it's like, is the time I

528
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 3: remain It's like, well, we never really got a totally

529
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 3: clear timeline. So yes, the unclear timeline sober mains. But

530
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 3: he said that like it sounds like he'll still be

531
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 3: available as some point in the first quarter of the season,

532
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 3: So I do not expect Marlon to be an IR candidate.

533
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 3: So we'll see, you know where that where that goes.

534
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 3: I also think the other thing to keep an eye

535
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 3: on here, and why we keep saying initial is because

536
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 3: there could be players that shake loose from other teams

537
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 3: who the Ravens end up claiming on waivers as well.

538
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and you know, are there other players you

539
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: know you mentioned Marlon, are there other players that go

540
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: on IR that you know the Ravens have had the

541
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 1: past two days, they've had a number of absences in practices.

542
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 2: Do any of those end up as an IR situation? Yeah?

543
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 2: Right right?

544
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: And then with you know, around this time, there's not

545
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: a whole lot of injury definitive injury information that comes.

546
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 3: Out with and with IR too, Like you know, part

547
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 3: of that, I think it's it makes it a little

548
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 3: bit more complicated, and why there's so many moving pieces,

549
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 3: Like now you can put a guy on IR and

550
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 3: it's all short term. You don't have to designate someone

551
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 3: to return, so you just have more flexibilities you're constructing

552
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 3: your roster. You can put guys on IR and they

553
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 3: could be back, you know, a month later, so you

554
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 3: have a little bit more funxibility as a team as

555
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,239
Speaker 3: you're making that decision. So yeah, there could be other

556
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 3: I R candidates sometimes that that always happens every year.

557
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,879

Speaker 2: in quite some time.

576
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 3: Just just I argue, well, just just lack of athlete.
