Apparently Jacoby Jones said that if Lamar Jackson had the trio of Boldin, Torrey, and himself that he would not be running anywhere.

God I miss Anquan. The man ran two routes and it worked every time. Out or a dig, even when he was covered he just bodied people.

Bateman has a screw in his foot from Lisfranc surgery. Not trying to overreact but he'll likely not be 100% himself until 2024 although he'll be able to play even at the start of 2023. Unfortunately, we can't just rely on him being our number one. He's missed a ton of time already, is coming off a big injury, and even when healthy was not at all super productive. That being said he showed flashes of being elite and big play potential. What a terrible situation. The Ravens finally get a Rashod Bateman and then this happens.

Mason > Q and I don’t hesitate on that one. If Q was here post-SB then it probably changes, he could’ve been a big difference maker in 2014 but he never got that chance. But man Derrick Mason carried our offense back when we were in between Jamal’s prime and mcgahee’s arrival, and his sideline work paired with Flaccos cannon to deliver the ball to the far sideline was a big focal point of joes first 4 years, we had the run game clicking but the passing game mostly revolved around Joe ripping comebacks and back shoulders to Derrick Mason

So frustrating - he’s basically gonna be in year 4 by the time he’s fully healthy which is nuts

If he can recover he’s still got a chance to be great obviously but when he was drafted and how he’s played early he looked like he was well on his way to being easily the best WR the ravens have ever drafted

Right now it’s still Hollywood

I’ll admit to not having watched much of this years college football but from what I’ve heard the WR class isn’t amazing the way the last few have been

Hollywood had a screw in his foot in year one and did pretty well and it was removed in the offseason of 2020. It may not be that bad.

I want so badly for Bateman to achieve his potential which is just ultra high. I'm just nervous that hell end up doing it with another franchise

With deep comebacks, quick outs and straight up hooks nobody worked the sidelines better than Mason especially on late drives that won the Ravens games. While I loved Q and hated the trade Mason is by far the best wideout in Ravens history.

On a sidenote I need to look up Mason's history combined with his time with the Titans to see if he's HOF worthy. By eyesight he damn sure was.
