Rashod Bateman Confident Ravens Wide Receivers Can Carry the Load | Ravens Final Drive

That sounds like, I like the young guys, but want a vet to lead the team. … ? When are we gonna allow our wrs to be vets. A vet , a team outside of us developed in a passing scheme, and you wanna have him lead a te run game scheme. Think on that.

@king shark doesn’t have to lead the team. Just bring experience and leadership qualities. Have him teach our young guys to be vets

@cmaxmill …. I understand you, but come on that’s what the coaches are for. Paying a guy millions to be a “presence” guy, no way. Let’s teach from with in, not bring a guy from outside. We gotta stop looking for a player coach. Let the coaches earn they pay

@cmaxmill The biggest enemy of most NFL teams last year was attrition. It wiped out about half the league. Why get vet WRs when they are almost guaranteed not to make it through the season

@Willie Johnson exactly bro like Sammy Watkins for an example

Idk. I’m more concerned with our WR room this year than I’ve been with any position group in the Lamar era. There isn’t a lot of talent after Bateman, and if defenses focus on him and Mandrews, we don’t have guys who can create separation. But really, what scares me the most is what do we if Bateman or Mandrews get hurt? Just pack it up and go home? We’ve built a ton of quality depth at every other position. But if one of our top receiving options gets hurt, we have zero chance of competing with the other AFC contenders. I hope we sign fuller or Julio, and they can stay on the field and produce at a high level.
Ps. I love duvernay as our 3rd WR in the mini Deebo role, getting 50-70% snaps and 60-80 targets/rushes

@Shaquan Reaves Because he is hot garbage. He’s the one who thought a run play on 3rd and 21 was a smart idea and running the same play 3 consecutive times expecting different results and failing all 3 times was also smart.

@HoboFraggins And what game was this?

@Shaquan Reaves I know one of them was the dolphins game where he ran 3 of the same play consecutively. And running on 3rd and 21 happened I believe earlier in the season.

N people still trying to find a way to curb them.

I’m excited about proche too

I disagree but he def is chill.

It’s devin duvernay imo he’s had the most production so far

Yup all facts 💯

If the Ravens would have used proche and duverney properly we would never had the get Bateman. Because I think both of them are better than “Hollywood…”

Thank you 🤦🏾‍♂️ people tend to forget this man literally had 30+ passing touchdowns with the little giants receivers playing for him and 1 great pass catching tight end the group he has now will thrive

Yup… waay better I think. I think Duvernay and Proche are pro bowlers that needs more touches to prove it. But definitely show that type of potential. You throw a 50/50 ball up anywhere near Proche and hes going to make you look silly. And Duvernay looks like a up and coming Edelman. With more upside honestly. If Duvernay was a patriot back in Bradys day. He’d look better then Edelman honestly.

@Travis says the truth u just nailed the Edelman comparison and I feel like duvernay could be better he faster and a little bigger

@Travis says the truth lol relax, duv and proche are nice but they ain’t no pro bowl Caliber receivers 🤦🏿‍♂️

@Trey Wilson Id advise you to re watch their tape and if you still don’t think they have that potential then I pray we don’t get a washed up vet. So you can watch these boys cook.

N we wasting him on punt return, cant be life.

How you know we done a horrible job in developing WR? Are you in the film room watching tape or on the sidelines? 🤣🤣🤣

@Aruba Robinson based on their track history its easy to decipher, don’t have to be a genius to notice that fact

I agree 💯

if someone gets hurt then what?

@2nd-String Superstar that’s why most of our UDFAs consisted of decent big body receivers

@Rodney Kim but the drop off in skills and talent will be absolutely drastic. besides, they’re UDFA’s for a reason. 28 receivers (the amount of receivers were taken in the 2022 draft class) were considered better than them. the best bet is a veteran receiver. you don’t rely on undrafted free agents as a fallback plan unless you’re absolutely destroyed by injuries.

@2nd-String Superstar understand the concern but this is the opportunity that they are giving them that everyone wanted the young receivers to have IMO they should roll with who they have if the worst happens then we could trade chuck clark and a draft pick for a decent WR unless there is still someone proven enough in the free agency
