The Matt Joudan's Twitter battle with Jamison Hensley really hurt his stock moving forward as a free agent. Would you give up all the speed that the Ravens have on offense for size? Do the Ravens or does Lamar Jackson hold more power when it comes to his contract extension? These and many more on this episode of NFL Questions From Subscribers. YouTube team keep it clean.

Now if you want to be part of NFL Questions From Subscribers, you can send me an email to teamkeepitclean at gmail.com and we'll answer your question in a video just like this. Now, today's episode of NFL Questions From Subscribers is a very special episode because we have a special guest and let me let him introduce himself to you all. We're bringing on my guy. Raven C. YouTube. You already know reactions, thoughts. I'm still on the train of believing the number one why I'm receiving Greg Roman. That's how I'm gonna say it. Let him know where to find you at. You can find me on YouTube all that good stuff. You can find me. Just look up Raven C. R-A-V-E-N-C-E-E in YouTube. I should be the number one to pop up. And also check me out on Twitter, Raven underscore C-E-E.  It'll all be in the description of this video. So without further ado, we got plenty of good questions to get into. Let's do it. First question came from my guy, Wayne J. He said, Hey, engraving and Raven C. This doesn't have to go on question from subs. If you don't want it to, since it's probably not that deep as time progresses, I'm noticing that national media outlets are talking about the Jude on versus Hensley battle more. And at first glance, the headline seemed pretty incriminating of Jude on like the headline he attached, which says Raven star Matthew Jude on extorting ESPN reporter with photo claim. When you look into the whole thing as you did in your video, you can see Jude on point of view. However, not everyone will look at the whole thing. Do you think this could have a negative impact or effect on his ability to cash in during free agency? Appreciate you, man. Appreciate it. Oh, that's J. Doug. I know that was you. Okay. Appreciate it, man. So you know what? I'm going to let you start the whole Twitter, debacle and Instagram, debacle and Jameson. How do you think it's going to impact this free agency? Well, right, right away when I saw that, I thought of two things. The leaked photo, I was wondering, how did you get it? And you must have been there to take that photo. Also, I was thinking, like, why'd you done acting like that? But then I'm like, well, I would act like that, too, if people are speaking false about me. And to me, Jude on is doing what Draymond Green did the other day. He just letting the truth come out. If you don't hear it from his mouth, that's how rumors get started. So that's what I'm liking about Jude on. Even though he might be gone, he got my respect with that. Okay. Now, with me with the whole thing, I was telling my guy that I was surprised that this, I talked to a couple of people about it. I was surprised that this really got national spotlight. Because I thought this was just going to be, because I could clearly see that Jude on was joking, at least in my opinion. I thought he was just joking about the whole thing. And I thought he was doing what he felt was done to him. Where people just, he feel like it was some crazy wild story. So he was like, you know what? I'm going to say my own, you saying this crazy wild story about me.  Just so you can see how it feels. I didn't think it was serious at all. I didn't think it was serious. I thought he was just making fun of the whole, the whole situation. And I thought that this whole thing was just going to stay like on Raven's Twitter and whatever, maybe Raven's YouTube and whatnot. And I thought that would, that would be the end of it. Man, maybe like some other fan bases get worried over what, but I didn't think it was going to be on pro football, talking ESPN, having an issue, a statement. And I'm like, whoa, that's crazy. But it certainly, I do think it does impact Jude on's free agency quite a bit. Because this is because it got this national attention and this national spotlight. It does just the way that people create a headline, the way that people create a headline, the title of an article, of a video, of anything like that, that can do a lot to people. Because people can look at that headline or that title or whatever it is.  And that's before they even watch a video. That's before they even read an article. That's before anything. So when people see headlines like that with Jude on, it could be like, oh man, he's so sick. But you don't always have the whole context. And sometimes the articles and sometimes the videos, they don't even include the whole context. So I think this thing was blown way out of proportion. Now, while I'm not excusing what Jude on said, I do understand where he was going with it. But the timing of the execution wasn't the best. And the, I guess, not even the word choice, but what he used to try to make his point, it was a tiny, tiny bit extra. I seen people talking about extortion. I don't know, it just got blown out of proportion. So yeah, I do think it's going to affect and impact Jude on's free agency. But he's still going to get his money. Even if he takes a cheap deal now, like a one-year deal with somebody right now, people will end up forgetting about this whole thing. And then eventually, yeah, everything will end up being just fine for Matt Jude on. Next question came from my guy, Bullet A Trex. He said, I ain't graven and Raven C. Hope all is well, and I've been a fan of the channel since last off season. Not long, but you have to start somewhere, right? I appreciate that, man. Anyways, personally, I think John Hardball needs to go. If this happens, oh, let's see. It is obvious that the passing game is holding us back. You look at the four teams that went to the conference championship. Bills, Bucks, Chiefs, and Green Bay. What do they all have in common? They are all passing teams. If that's not enough, we've seen Hollywood's need. Bryant, Kurt Warner, Lamar, and Steve Smith's senior all call out the Ravens offense. It shouldn't have to get this bad. If Hardball does not get a wide receiver, number one, or top tier tight end, like Waller, Kelsey, or Kittle, then I'm done. Whoa, before we continue. They don't just fall off at trees like that. They don't just grow on trees like that, I mean. I said fall off at trees. I don't know where that came from. But tight ends, like, and the guys that you mentioned, Waller, one of the best tight ends in the league. Kelsey, one of the best tight, Kittle, one of the best tight ends in the league. They don't just come out of nowhere. So if that's your expectation that they get a top tier tight end and Mark Andrews, he's good. He ain't great. He's good. He's still got some work to do. Cause again, the hands, they be a little bit shaky and in big games and hands get a little extra shaky and sometimes it disappears and whatnot. But we still love one Andrews, but we gotta call a spade a spade. But if this is your expectations, if Hardball doesn't get a wide receiver, one or a top tier tight end, like Waller, Kelsey, or Kittle, then you're done. You might as well pack them Ravens bags down, man. Like, that's maybe Zach, we'll see what happens with Zach Earths, but I don't know, let's just continue though. Anyway, he said, this should be a wake-up call to him. Hey, you're only going to make it so far with what seems to be a one-dimensional offense with a two-dimensional quarterback in Lamar Jackson. Ooh, I like that part. What do you think about this? This is the last wake-up call for Hardball before I am done with Johnny Boy. We'd love to know your thoughts on this and sorry for the long one. So Ravens C, we'll start with you. He said that he's done, if the Ravens don't get a number one wide receiver and a top tier tight end. And he said, Hardball needs to go if he doesn't get those things this off-season. So how do you feel about that? Nah, with the number one wide receiver, I can only see that happening possibly with the Orlando Brown. That to me is the only way I can see it happening with the cap situation. And then, well, and I agree with you with tight end, I automatically think of a Zach Hurst.  You see what happened with Hurst and Andrews, you see how that turned out. Yeah. So I wouldn't say he's on that pack in a bag, I see right away, to me, if he's on that hot seat, you're gonna see Greg Roman gone. As soon as you see Greg Roman is gone, in the middle of the season, and Keith Williams is our offense coordinator, you're like, okay, Eric DeCosta made that Godfather call. That's a real good point, especially about if Greg Roman does get let go in the middle of the season, hopefully that won't have to happen. But it's like, yeah, hopefully that won't have to happen because if that doesn't happen, then that means one, the Ravens will be winning. And two, the Ravens offense will be being successful. But if it does happen, then yeah, that would mean the, okay, you fight the offensive coordinator, and you know offensive coordinator in John Harbaugh's tenor, they take a lot of the blame. They take a whole lot of the blame. And it seems like not every year, but a lot of years, we like, hey, why this offensive coordinator, he's terrible, he needs to go. Then a couple years later, hey, this offensive coordinator, he's terrible, he needs to go. Couple years later, hey, this offensive coordinator, he's terrible, he needs to go. And we keep having that same conversation over and over and over and over and over. Is it coincidence? I don't know. Next question came from my boy, Rodeo. He said, what's up, bro? Hope you feeling good whenever you get this. Pete, this, as a team, I feel we may have the fastest offense in the NFL. Oh man, that's tough, because I felt like we heard this last year too. And it could have been true. It could have been Lamar, obviously fastest quarterback in the league, Hollywood, one of the fastest receivers in the league, and you got Duvenay too. So it could have been true, but anyway, we saw how all that speed was used. As a team, we don't even use our running back who was the fastest in his draft class. Speaking of Justice Hill, that's, yeah, anyway, let's keep going. But with Hollywood, Duvenay, Justice Hill, Lamar Jackson, and Miles Boykin, I feel as though this track team could and should, and I wish would perform better than Kansas City. Now, while play calling in Lamar's development with wide receiver development has brung us disappointment. Would you give up our speedy wide receivers for big body wide receivers? Ooh, that's a good question. Because big body wide receivers I feel like would be so beneficial to a Lamar Jackson because of they would give him a much bigger, larger catch radius. They would still, in the running game, they would still give those blocks because they got bigger bodies. Red zone targets, you got, it doesn't just have to be Mark Andrews and it still doesn't just have to be him right now, but so let's just finish the question though. He said, check me out. EDC wanted to build the bully, right? We are a run heavy team, right? And our fast wide receiver don't get the ball much, right? Just a lot of rights, so can't be wrong. Just a thought, if we threw out Lamar, Dobbins, Hollywood, Boykin, Gulladay, and for your sake, AJ Green, LOL. Oh, that's a big ice. To me, this presents a different look for defenses, possibly better blocking wide receivers and more of a safety net for Lamar with jump balls. You can still swap out Hollywood and Duvenay in the slot, but I don't know, this was just an interesting thought. I had a drop on my brain. What do you think? Okay. I already pretty much gave my answer because that it would, like I said, larger catch radius for Lamar, more red zone targets. And like he also mentioned, we both mentioned with the blocking, that could improve too. You'll still have the blocking, but it could be even better, but I'm gonna let you take it away. Would you trade all the speed that the Ravens have, even though they don't really use it too much, but would you trade all that speed for size, for bigger wide receivers? That's like a trick question. It is. Because like you said, we have all the speed, but it really don't even do anything with it. Yeah. And what would we do with the big body with Greg Roman as office coordinator? But, I had to say that, but I would have to go with that big body. The only reason I say that, he wasn't as a big body as like some of these other receivers like a Julio and stuff like that, but Anquan. Anquan literally helped Joe Plaggo was there for just check down Joe, everything. Just throw it up, but that part right there is gonna have to be on Lamar. Cause the only ones that I can think of with Lamar throwing it up, it was to Marquise. I remember seeing him jump. Yeah. When he jumped up, I was like, what in the world? But he has a little hops, but I believe that would help out a lot. I think that would help out a lot for the big bodies. Yeah. It would actually have the speed. It would definitely benefit his game.  Other than that, I mean, he got Miles Boykin sitting there, but he don't, since he don't trust him, he don't throw those. And I think with Lamar with him being so careful with the ball, he's only gonna give you a 50-50 chance if he really, really like really trusts you.  And that's how it is with Boyk. Boykin's supposed to be that 50-50 guy and he don't get the opportunity to do it cause him and Lamar, they done been off, they done been off for the same page for a long time now. So they don't even give him a shot. So hopefully this off season, all that can improve like drastically, man. Okay. Can you see Hollywood trying to jump him, him? It took a little bit, but then you know in the off season, they were showing Hollywood and Lamar all the time. I remember seeing in the interview, Boykin was saying he was gonna visit, but then that's when the virus really took effect of shutting everything down out there. Yeah, he eventually made it out there. But yeah, he wasn't out there with everybody else. It's all good, man. So hopefully we can, this year, we can get a mix of both, both the receivers with the size, like a Miles Boykin and the receivers with the speed, like a Hollywood and then the receivers who got a good blend of both, like a Devin Duvenay who built strong and built tough, but he still face. Next question came from my guy, James H. He said, what's up in Graven and Raven C. Long time listener, first time question from out in Vancouver, Washington. What did you think about this scenario? We pick up recently cut ex Raven Ricky Wagner to replace soon to be gone.  Orlando Brown, junior. That would solidify our right tackle spot and add veteran leadership back on the offensive line. Hopefully he won't be too pricey after already securing the bag earlier. This way when we trade Orlando, we don't need to use a first round pick on the tackle and be able to grab both an edge and interior offensive lineman with our first two picks. All right. So with me, I know it's been a lot of talk about Rick Wagner, but I will be a little bit worried about Rick Wagner because I did see a report shortly after he got released saying that he was thinking about continuing to play or he was thinking about retirement. So if he's already thinking about retirement, then how much does he want to continue to play? How much effort will be put into his play? How much effort will be put into his craft? And would he really be out there just collecting a check? I mean, which I know enough people do already anyway, but or would he really be out there like really giving it his all, really trying to be the best right tackle that he could possibly be? What do you think about it? I pass on him. I will pass. I've seen that report and I was like, could he come back then? I was like, nah, I'm good because let me see, he will come back to us, but the Packers only had him what, like a year, something like that? I think like maybe two. And gone. So I'm like, if they don't want him protecting Aaron Rogers, I mean, right. Well, that, yeah, that's a good point too. I ain't even think about that. Okay. And his next party said, ideally I would resign Jude on, let the others walk. Now this came out on, he sent this on February 23rd. So this was a day before the whole Jude on James in things. Anyway, he said ideally I would resign Jude on, let the others walk and drive Tulsa linebacker, Zevon Collins at pick 27. And I would bring, it would bring that speed back in place of Ngakwe and we'll actually give effort to stop the run. Oh, he's in a little pettiness in there too. Against Ngakwe, talking about it would get, it would actually give effort to stop the run. I can't speak on Zevon Collins yet because I haven't watched any film on him. But as far as Jude on, Jude on, I think he's going. I don't think he's coming back. And this was even before he got into his whole battle with Hensley yesterday. So I don't think that this, at least then resigning him would happen. And then, but I could see them picking an outside linebacker an edge guy at pick 27. I could definitely see that or interior offensive line. What about you? Jude on is gone. I'm going, I really want Bowser back. Something just, to me, he's just hungry. He really never got that big chance because always it was somebody in front of him. But yeah, with that 27 pick, I'm like you, I see pass rusher or offensive line, but we heard the cost. I think he might move up a little bit if somebody just happened to be there. He really wants, watch out for safety too. Watch out for safety. Yeah. Eric, the cost of moving up. I don't know, man. You never know. It's 2021. So we'll see. So the next part of his question, he said, in favor of the Ravens not drafting. Oh, he said also I'm in favor of the Ravens not drafting wide receiver unless it's in round one. Ravens made an effort to improve their passing attack with the coaches they brought in. With Duvenay getting more involved next year, I think the offense would have to make, they'll have the makings of something great. Duvenay needs to be a high volume guy. Let the man work. Yep.  It ain't nothing for me to say. And then the last one, he said, you got anything to say about that? Duvenay high volume guy, that he needs to be a high volume guy to get a lot of catches and whatnot. Duvenay body reminds me of Steve Smith senior. So I would actually put him in a slot just like you said, let him work. Yeah. Okay. And he said also I'm not in favor of Ravens drafting a tight end unless it's Kyle Pitts and he'll be gone before we pick. Honestly, the undrafted Titan out of Oregon would be a great Titan three. He doesn't bring much as a blocker but he is able to stretch the field and present his own mismatches and that'll allow Andrews to feast again. So he's talking about Jacob Breeland. Jacob Breeland, I remember watching film on him last year after the Ravens had signed him. And what I saw, he didn't have no crazy speed. The speed is not, it's not anything to be, oh man, he's so fast now, I didn't see that. He wasn't like, he wasn't like, what's that Titan that we signed that? That he wasn't Dallas Clark, Dallas Clark slow.  But the most important thing, he got the hands. The hands, the way that this dude caught the ball is like those cartoons where it's a baby that's falling out of a building and the firefighters, they just, he just falls right into their arms. This dude, his hands were like, he catches the ball so softly and so effortlessly. And that's, that's what we need. Like, you ain't gotta be the fastest. We were just talking about all the speed earlier in the previous question, but you ain't gotta be the fast especially at the Titan position. But if you're gonna bring somebody on the field that can catch the ball like consistently, or even if it's not consistently, if you can catch the ball when your number is called and you can catch it efficiently, that can go such a long way with this team, man. Because we saw so many drops. Like, not even so many drops, but we just saw so many crucial drops. Cause I can't say we saw so many drops because we ain't see so many passes, which is not necessarily a bad thing that we ain't see so many passes cause that's just the way the offense is. But the efficiency just gotta improve, man. We did see some crucial drops. Did you, like, I didn't realize this. Shout out to my guy, simply AS10. I didn't realize it till I watched his video that showed most of the Ravens drops from this season. And I did not realize how close that Kansas City game was, even in the third quarter. Yeah. Like, and it was a play with Lamar Jackson through a touchdown pass to Mark and, ooh, beautiful pass to Mark Andrews. He just dropped it. He dropped it. And it just painful, man. But as far as that third tight end spot, who do you think should get that? What do you think the Ravens should do there? If they got somebody already on the roster, would you compete? If you got a specific person, you would want them to draft, to sign, or what do you feel like they should do at their third tight end spot? Well, what about Luke Wilson? Nobody wanna talk about him?  The Ravens were not there. They was there, you're feeling a little good. They said, oh, you wanna drop this touchdown in the Steelers game? Okay, we're gonna drop you faster than you dropped that touchdown right before halftime. They probably had a conversation with him right after he dropped that pass. Yeah. They said, oh, yeah. Just like that ball? Yeah, you getting dropped too. They dropped that extension out the window. I would actually, I would draft a tight end, but obviously in the later rounds, I'd say like third, third and up possibility because you obviously wouldn't know, I take that back. I say fifth and up because you know, they're gonna have them on the practice squad. That's hard ball thing is practice squad. So that's why I said, I'm just stick with that because all these injuries from last year, and then with Boyle coming back from an injury, you don't know how that's gonna turn out. So it's probably, yeah, I'll say they're gonna draft a tight end and put them on practice squad to see and feel that Boyle is actually 100% ready to go again. And I think that's one of the biggest reasons why they resigned Eric Tomlinson because he filled in for Boyle and he was a pretty good blocker. They didn't really throw much passes his way, but he held it down when it came to blocking. He ain't afraid to go ahead up with somebody. He ain't afraid to get in there. So I do think that he's sort of lacking insurance policy for Nick Boyle. So yeah, whatever the Ravens do at tight end, man, you know, they gotta address it because last year when they first went with two tight ends, nah, that's not them. Keep three, keep three. The next question came from my guy, real raw reckless. He said, good afternoon, fam. Just had something on my mind. When everyone speaks about Lamar Jackson's upcoming contract talks, they speak as if the Ravens have all the cards in their hands. But if you think about it, almost if not all of the other teams would love to have Lamar Jackson and they would pay him. Lamar said he's a quarterback, not a running back, but in this Greg Roman offense, he's a running back that those sometimes. If the Ravens don't give Lamar the pieces he needs, who's to say he won't think about taking his talents to South Beach like LeBron James? One last thing. Okay, so before we get into the second part, I really don't think the Ravens really hold the cards when it comes to Lamar's contract. I think Lamar, he holds it. Now they don't have to pay him right now because they got this year and then they could do the fifth year option. But in my opinion, I think Lamar holds the cards because they can offer him something and if he don't want it, you're declining. Yeah, they can start doing the whole getting into all the franchise tag mess here and there. But still Lamar remains in control of this whole thing. And another reason that he does is because Lamar is really, he's the reason, man. Lamar is the reason. Ravens, well, I think over the past, ever since Lamar took over, they like 38, something like, something crazy like that. But Lamar is the reason. This, the season when Lamar took over, it was looking, he was looking nasty, man. That offense was looking nasty, just the Ravens, they ain't having no life. They were headed downhill fast, but Lamar took over and ever since then there ain't been no looking back. In order, with the playoffs, things got improved with the Ravens in the playoffs, but he gets you there. He gets you there and he is the, not the sole reason, not the only reason, but he is the biggest reason that Ravens have had as much success as they've had. And he's done this without much of a support and cast. And it's like his rookie year, you can give an excuse because the receivers and stuff, they were there for Joe Flacco, okay, cool. Sophomore year, they went and got a Seth Roberts, and he wasn't bad. I like Seth Roberts, I love his effort. But then it's like, okay, you want to follow up that MVP season while he's still on his rookie deal, okay, go out and get that guy at wide receive. Go out and get, make it real deal, man. You saw what he did with not much at wide receive. Okay, make it real deal now. Show Lamar that you all in on Lamar, like for real, for real. Ravens like, oh, nope, we're not doing it, nope. We're going to try for the Andre Hopkins. We're going to try for Adam Thielen. We're going to try for this guy and that guy, this receiver and that receiver. We're not going to get him. We're going to try though. And so Lamar, he holds all the power, that thing, man. Lamar is like Thanos with the Ravens. If he snaps and leaves, that's it. That's it. Like they will go so far back in my opinion, cause it's not no plug and play. It ain't like, I know a lot of Ravens fans got hype when Tyler Hunley came in. I think it was a Jaguars game. Oh man, we was high, especially when he got that big run, okay, Ty, Ty, let's go. But it's not a plug and play. This is not a system. Lamar is not no system quarterback. Well, you could just have somebody else coming. Okay, Trace McSully, do what Lamar does. Go ahead, have at it. You even got number seven, Vic had number seven too. Maybe you're fast like him. No, don't work like that. Tyler Hunley, it was the same way. It's not a plug and play system. Lamar is the reason. So I do, I think Lamar, he holds all the power. How you feel about Lamar and how much control and power he has and who's holding the cards when it comes to him and the Ravens and these contracts talks? It's all Lamar. Lamar is like M&M, you say what I am and he is it. Because he said, he showed everybody in the Browns game when he came back from stretching his leg, but he showed it. Tyler was out there. I said Tyler, my bad, not Tyler. Yeah, Trace was out there. Didn't really do much. Everything just slowed down. Browns came back in the game. Lamar was like, okay, let me go out there and do my bad and stuff. Literally came back, even Hollywood was like, he ran, it was kind of like a backyard ball. Literally your backyard ball touched down right off the back. And I was nervous as heck. Touched down right off the back. That showed everybody comeback points down. They said that about Lamar. If he's down some points, can't come. He done did all of that. Everybody up this year and had, if he came to me with the bills, it was just turbo offensive line in the center. Don't get me started. But with all of that, Lamar showed everybody, I am that dude. Raven's gonna pay me. I don't know if it's gonna be Patrick, my home's money, cause that's still questionable. But yeah, cause you don't know what is it gonna have when that start to kick in. Cause you gotta start paying them people. See, and the thing with that too, I don't think right now, if they were to, I don't expect them to pay him this off season, but if they were to pay him this off season, it couldn't be Patrick my home's money. Because Patrick my home's got the Super Bowl under his belt. I just said the Super Bowl. But he got the Super Bowl under his belt. Lamar ain't got there yet. So no, he can't get no deal worth up to 500 mil. But the Ravens trust me, he is worth that to the Ravens because he brought so much to this team, man. This dude brought a lot of national attention to the team. He put them in the limelight. He got them a lot more prime time. He's must see TV. And he just, and he is a brand, Lamar Jackson. He is a brand too. So Ravens have definitely, and then of course the biggest thing, he is a huge reason for the Ravens winning. So Ravens, they try to okey-doke him with a contract. I would hope that he looks at it like, oh yeah, keep trying me if you want to. Or like he did when, when, who was that cornerback? Was it Malcolm Butler? I think, yeah, when Malcolm Butler flipped him on Thomas. And he just said, bet. He need to do that same thing with the Ravens if they try to give him some little rinky, dinky contract, he gonna, oh bet. You want to offer this? Oh, okay, that's cool, that's cool. You can keep that. Slide it right back across the table and say no. Oh, you know what? Say, he do the thing, because you know his mom's his agent. He whispered in there real quick and then she put a nails in the contract and slide it across the table. Be petty with it too. Did they try to loathe all of them? No, you can't do that, man. You cannot do that. But I've said this before to a Lamar Jackson. What I would want him to do is make the Ravens prove that they really invested in him. All right, go get me some more help.  And make it to where he has absolutely no excuse to weapons, none. Offensive line, build up that offensive line. Because I know a lot of people feel like, oh man, when you guys talk about needing a number one wide receiver, yeah, you can't throw to those receivers if you have no offensive line. Some people think that just because you want a true number one wide receiver, you want more at the wide receiver position that you forget about the offensive line, no. Ravens gotta find a way to do it all. You got to. You got like no excuses. There's free agency. There's the draft. There's trades. You can make some stuff happen. Like, and I think if the Ravens really want to make something happen, somebody got to go when Eric DeCosta's sleeping or something, they got to go inside his head and flip his brain upside down. Flip it upside down or flip it left and right, whatever, switch it. Because right now the way the Ravens do defense, that would all be flipped to offense. And then the way they are really investing their defense, that would all be flipped to offense. They'd be like, okay, we can trade for this player. So all the tries that they've had over the years, when it comes to this guy or that guy, those tries would become successes. So hopefully that ends up being the case, but we'll see. And that Orlando, to me, what you just saying there, that Orlando Brown trade that can work in so many ways for Lamar, because he can get the number one wide receiver out of that trade with some additional picks. And those additional picks can go toward that offensive line. That should set up everything for Lamar. That's true. That's true. That's a good point. Oh, and then he said, one last thing. We know Lamar likes tight ends. So why not let, oh, he scared me at first because I just saw the name and I was like, oh, please don't say that. Anyway, let me run it back. He said, one last thing. We know Lamar likes tight ends. So why not let Tyree Phillips play? Right tackle. Get a guy like Joe Thune, the guard with Tristan Colon Castillo as center and maybe trade Orlando Brown Jr. to the Eagles for Zach Ertz and some draft picks. Build off the receivers we have. Sorry for the long rant. Look forward to hearing your thoughts. Hashtag team keeping clean. All right, so let's break this part down. So let Tyree Phillips play right tackle. Okay. Already under contract, right tackle. And he would have an off season this year, which should help a lot. Get a guy like Joe Thune, a guard. Okay. So I'm assuming that would be your right guard because they had a lot of questions there. It was Pat McCarty, it was Fluker. It was like, it was everybody there right guard this year. So that was sort of solidify the right guard position because you would definitely have to invest some money if you get a Joe Thune. And then Tristan Colon Castillo as center. Okay. He did play really good in that Steelers game. That's the only game we got to see him play in, but he did play really good in that. And that's how he was solidified offensive line. So I'm assuming he would leave Bozeman at left guard and of course, Ronnie Stanley at right tackle and then trade Orlando Brown Jr. to the Eagles for Zach Ertz and some draft picks. No Eagles got some high draft picks, man. But you would of course lose some of the higher draft picks if you were obtaining Zach Ertz too. But it will give you that tight end again. So this move or these moves would build up the offensive line. Well, they will build up the interior of it with the guard. But Tristan Colon Castillo, I wouldn't mind seeing him get a shot, but it's still a big question mark, but I still wouldn't mind seeing him get a shot. And Tyree Phillips, it'll be the same way. Still a question mark, but hey. And he said build off of the receivers that we have already. So how would you feel if they did these things, if they made these moves? Can't do it. I'm not doing that. I like the Phillips, but the trade, I didn't think an Eagles fan was saying that, but the trade with the Eagles and with the Zach Ertz.  We still need that number one to help out Hollywood. Hollywood last, I believe five games. He became Hollywood to me. At first he was just marquee. Five games. I was like, okay, this boy done pulled up to Hollywood Boulevard and staying there. But yeah, I'm not feeling that though, but just the Phillips, that's the only thing I like about that.


Should the Ravens trade for Falcons Y receiver Julio Jones? Now that the Ravens actually have two first round picks, can you see them trading up in the draft to select a top tier player? Do you think Lamar Jackson has a say so and personnel and acquisitions that are made by the Ravens? These are some of the great questions on this episode of NFL Questions from subscribers. You too, Team Keep It Clean, what's going on at St. Graven here with another video and another episode of NFL Questions from subscribers and what that is is a series where you can ask me any NFL question you want to based off of any NFL team and we answer it in the video just like this. Now if you want to be part of NFL Questions from subscribers you can send me an email to teamkeepitclean at gmail.com or for the patrons you can send it directly on Patreon and your question will be in the video just like this. Team Keep It Clean I love y'all and I mean speaking of the patrons shout out to all of the Team Keep It Clean patrons thank you. Team Keep It Clean we got some really good questions like we always do but let's start it off with something that a lot of people have been talking about today Julio. So the first question on this episode of NFL Questions from subscribers came from yours truly. Should the Ravens trade for wide receiver Julio Jones? Now this isn't the first time that we asked this question but when we asked this question before there were just rumors of Julio Jones possibly being traded. It was a thought it wasn't anything concrete it wasn't anything that had even been reported on. Rumors here and there circulating but now but now it's been put out there that the Falcons have been taking calls on Julio Jones and I know some people might say oh they're just taking calls that doesn't mean anything. Teams put this out there intentionally to get things moving to get it moving. There were probably already people calling on Julio Jones before but now the teams like okay we got to heat this thing up because we want to put this thing in the works we want to get this thing moving. So now it's been put out there by several reporters that hey Falcons taking calls Falcons taking calls Julio got like this massive cap hit I think like 15 mil something like that and the Falcons they ain't trying to deal with it. So it's looking like Julio's time as an Atlanta Falcon is coming to an end but should the Baltimore Ravens make that call? Well the Ravens I believe they have about 15 mil in cap space right now but as we all know if the Ravens not even just the Ravens if a team really wants somebody because somebody asked me this on Twitter they were like whoa wait a minute what about the Ravens cap situation and I told them I responded the cap is cap if a team really wants somebody if they really want a player they will find a way to get it done and for me if the Ravens have the opportunity to trade for Julio Jones now real quick before we get into that what would it take to get Julio Jones well the trade the Falcons are gonna make this trade a post June 1st trade so that means it won't go into effect until then but if you make any moves post June 1st then that any moves that create like dead money anything like that that allows you to break up the payment of whatever that move whatever that move requires you to pay on the cap or any dead money that is allocated from the move like for example for Julio Jones I don't know if these numbers are exact but if the whatever the dead the dead money it is then if you did a post June 1st cut then you would be able to do half in this year half on this year's salary cap and then half on next year's salary cap but if you did if you traded him before June 1st then it would all go on this salary cap so whatever dead money it would all go right here right now so the Falcons are trying to sort of break it up so that's why they're gonna be doing it post June 1st they can make the agreements now it's like when we go into a new league year before the league year starts teams have agreed to make whatever moves like the Rams and the Lions they agree to trade Stafford and and Jared golf but it didn't actually go through until the new league year started same way with Julio Jones how it's gonna be for wherever he gets traded to so what that means is that you don't have to give up any draft picks from this year you would be giving up draft picks from next year so I will love if the Ravens did it I will love if the Ravens did it and they would be able to figure out a way to get him under the cap they will be able to figure out a way to do it because it will take some restructuring I'm sure it will take some maneuvering of the cap but again you look at the Kansas City Chiefs you look at what they do and seems like it's an annual thing that they do right now but guess what hey look where they at right now look where they are they're coming off of two straight Super Bowls they won one of them but they got to two of them they should have actually gotten a three but they've been doing their thing and they keep building these crazy rosters I know somebody's gonna be like well in a couple years they're gonna be in some cap problems well I would gladly take those cap problems if it meant that my team was gonna be one of the top teams every single year for a long period of time we'll deal with that when we get there but if safe instance you got the chance to compete for Super Bowls for Super Bowls you can build Super Bowl rosters every year but you know that down the line a few years down the line that you're gonna have some cap problems then and maybe that in that year you may have to take us a slight step back okay bring it on for me bring it on for me I will take the immediate success right here right now for a cap problems maybe for like a year maybe two down the line and even if you have those cap problems it does not mean that you still won't be able to have a competitive team you're just gonna have to make some tough decisions but anyway with a Julio Jones I would be with it because y'all know I've been saying I want the Ravens to go overkill full of more overkill and I mean if we had Sammy Watkins again we know his history we know his history when it comes to missing games now with Julio Jones we know his history also when it comes to missing games too so I mean you put both those together that be a full seat nah I'm just playing but it would be like you that would really be you going in for Lamar now Julio is older now but Julio still Julio Julio still Julio Julio will be somebody that's been that guy on their team Julio somebody that got plenty of experience Julio somebody that can get it done and he would give Lamar Jackson and the Ravens that true outside number one guy that guy at wide receiver and he would take attention away from everybody else he would make everybody's job that much easier he's a physical he's a he's the perfect I remember we had a question from subscriber months ago on what the perfect prototype for the Ravens at wide receiver would be what is it and I said Julio Jones perfect perfect because he got the frame he got size he got speed he got strength he does not mind blocking he will go up and get it he is that guy he has been that guy for a long period of time and then he will come here Julio Jones already got all the catches in the world now things would change if he came to the Ravens certainly his catching would probably all his reception is probably dropping half but he would be part of a successful team he has some success with the Falcons a little bit here and there but not consistently and with the Ravens he would be a part of an a team that's like right there right there they stay close they are so close so I would be all for Julio Jones do I think the Ravens would do it though not really next question came from my boy Melvin G he said what's up team keeping clean this my first time sending a question so here we go do you think the fact that Lamar Jackson doesn't know the terminology of the playbook is holding the offense back from opening the offense hit me out nothing drives me more crazy than the offense lining up with seven or less seconds on the clock but I notice Lamar only calls plays off of his wristband now see that that all depends when the when the offense is lining up like that is it because Lamar doesn't know the terminology or is it because G roll sending them out there super late well what seems to be the disconnect right there because that is something with the Ravens that happens too much way too much and it's so frustrating because it can kill plays it can mess up plays it can kill drives it can cause penalties it can just set them back because you know Ravens do so much pre snap motion and whatnot they got guys running all over the field left and right back and forth and when you and they always said set with like two seconds left maybe less and then they do that like every game so I don't know if that means that it's Lamar who doesn't know the plays or if it's G roll that sending them out late but whatever it is it needs to get fixed like ASAP next question came from a boy Terrell B he said good morning Graven hope all is well with you and the fam is always I'm not big on fans calling for G roll to give fire reason being his system worked to Lamar strengths to make him the MVP and help our help have our coaches get recognition and even coach a pro bowl I understand everyone is saying that receivers do not want to play for the Ravens because you will not get the amount of catches they desire but the Ravens never have been a selfish team to worry about individual accolades so I agree with hardball and not begging a receiver to come to the team the system we had with the 2000 Ravens didn't beg for receiver and we won a Super Bowl that's still back though this is not 2000 football anymore it is not a league where defense can win championship you you gotta be able to put up points on the board you have to so that's that's throwback but anyway he said of course the defense was a big cause for that but with the addition of Sammy Watkins and with what we have already we should be good good enough to give it a chance with the wide receiver coach additions I'm excited that we may get another Super Bowl I know this was a hefty email but I had to get it off my chest appreciate it Terrell we'll see if they feel like Sammy is enough I don't think that they should feel that way because it's like we talked about Sammy Watkins injury history but we'll see what the Ravens do draft is coming up Julio's there you got some other options too now but um we'll see how they really feel about their wide receiver group over the next week and change next question came from a boy Harry H. he said a engraving how are you and the fam doing are we good he said hope all is well with everyone in team keep it clean family my question is now that we traded Orlando Brown Junior do we focus on the center left guard or right tackle in the draft or all three I think they will end up signing Dennis Kelly as a right tackle and we'll have Terry Phillips as a swing tackle therefore they can draft a development tackle late in the draft which leads me to believe that either we get a start in left guard and move both in the center or we have both men at left guard and draft a starting center what are your thoughts I would say the center I will say center first and foremost and like my guy Sonny from SEG sports said he made it very very good point that the Ravens have passed over Bradley Bozeman at center quite a few times to go with other options even when they had they shuffled the offensive line they had injuries along the offensive line they weren't like okay Bozeman you play center in college go ahead and move out nope they left him right where he was at so I don't think that they gonna all of a sudden move him to center now so I would say they would draft the center so I think that would be the first focus now right tackle maybe they do run with Terry Phillips after he has an offseason because remember last year he was a rookie and last year he didn't have an offseason so maybe he is the plan that they have in place because remember to with Orlando Brown Junior we knew even before he got traded we knew when it came to Lamar Mark Andrews Orlando Brown Junior those were the top three and we knew the Ravens were only gonna sign two of them we knew Lamar wasn't going nowhere and then we also knew Mark Andrews he ain't going nowhere either so Orlando Brown Junior was always the odd man out so Tyree Phillips could already be what he could be what the plan was now with Orlando Brown Junior being like hey I want to play left tackle okay the Ravens granted him that wish and they may have to just accelerate the process for replacing him which could be Tyree Phillips next question came from a boy Philip L he said now that Orlando Brown Junior has been traded so many fans want to see a first-round wide receiver like Bateman and Marshall taking but me I'm not one of those fans there's a lot of holes that need to be filled on the roster and do the trade that we now have nine total picks once the draft is here I would not be surprised if EDC was to draft a pass rusher at 27 like Jalen Phillips from Miami if he was to fall due to his medical condition history then with the 31st pick pick a caliber ready to go starting offensive tackle like Tevin Jenkins from Oklahoma State now I know after the draft Villanova will be signed but I believe he will mainly be used as a security blanket just in case Stanley ain't ready at the beginning of the season because he's 33 years old never play right tackle was never good at run blocking now we know how EDC always goes by best player available so if they think they could trade back and pick up that player I wouldn't be surprised if they traded 31 and move back to the top of the second round and drafted a wide receiver like Diamond Brown or Margie Marry Rogers plus received an additional third-round pick in that trade so what are your thoughts you made some really good points especially about a Villanova Villanova I do not think if the Raven sign him yeah I don't think he is that guy for them at either tackle spot but yeah like you said I do completely agree he is whether it's him Dennis Kelly or whether it's somebody else who they're not talking about publicly but as far as Villanova specifically feel like it's just an insurance policy it's just insurance and now Dennis Kelly he was somebody that was a starter he was a quality starter too for the Titans he's a quality starter for them so he could end up being the guy and again yeah he could be they could put him in a starting lineup or they could be like you know what it's just insurance just in case Ronnie ain't good to go yet but yeah if they if they went to the draft to get a tackle that could be another route but again like we said before maybe tired Phillips with a full offseason he can be that guy he could be ready to go but they are certainly going to add to their offensive line via the draft especially the interior of it next question came from a boy Mike B he said do you think the Ravens will most likely trade up in this draft to snag a top-tier player unlike past years you mean unlike forever well normally I know they did go back up to get them on anyway I don't see them trading back into the second round because they've already given up a second rounder for Orlando Brown Jr. hmm I just can't man I just I can't see them doing that man because it just is so unraven like it's so unraven like to to really trade up they got some ammo now man they got ammo but I just like trading up in the first round like they've traded up in other rounds before too and I don't mean they trade up in the first round too before like a little bit but to really like trade up up to get a top I just can't see them doing it next question came from a boy Rodeo he said what's up my guy hope you having an amazing day and all the team keeping clean too first things first isn't it ironic that the Ravens love going after old wide receivers but don't want to go get the 32 year old that has the best on-field resume and maybe the best wide receiver to ever sport the black and purple yeah mr. fly like a butterfly sting like a bee oh I didn't know what that was going but what one of his cases just got settled and in only half a season with Tom a bees numbers would rank second if he was on the Ravens with most of our wide receivers played 16 games just crazy to me this isn't a done deal or is it May 4th and May 4th would be well after May 3rd I don't know if it's May 3rd May 4th officially but anyway that's when signing an outside free agent would not count against the compensatory pick formula but let's keep going he said uh secondly does Lamar Jackson have the status to have a say so in player personnel and acquisitions I'm not so sure he is there yet but I'm also sure not so sure that he isn't like you have to believe he vouch for AB or some other free agents or maybe in the draft he has his preference of guys he would like to put his trust in after all he is doing for this franchise after all he is doing for this franchise we have to give back to this phenom what do you think oh well he wanted Hollywood and he got him he got him also that was a good choice yeah you try to get juju but juju said no no I'm straight straight and so yeah he has somewhat of a say so but you got to feel like is it is I feel like it's not too much I mean I don't know for sure but I feel like the Ravens they probably have their vision on the way that they want to really build this team they have in their minds how they really feel what type of players would best fit this Ravens roster so I think they would take some input here and there from Lamar but I think anything that they do would be mostly just on their their own thoughts next question came from a boy Q you said engraving what's up brother can I ask you why you think Miles Boykin is the guy I do not think his potential is even close to AJ Brown or DK Metcalf he's a good piece for the team but he does not have a dog personality to be a true number one compare him to his draft class even Hollywood his football personality is not demanding which is why his play reflects it and Lamar doesn't trust him what are your thoughts that's a really good question and with Miles Boykin it's not that I think he is the guy I would love for him to be the guy I don't think it's there right now but I do not think that he his potential has been absolutely exhausted with the Ravens to where I we tried everything that we possibly could with Miles Boykin but hey it just didn't work out if that was the case if the Ravens were had been doing that for the past couple years then I would be like okay no he ain't got it but they haven't been it haven't been now we know like and one thing too to think about he doesn't have a dog personality if I know why I hear a lot of people say that and I can I can understand why they say that but think about this if he didn't have that dog personality what kind of personality does he have does he have a diva personality because you sure don't see him complaining about blocking and what smile even though he is a wide receiver what's Miles Boykin known for the most with these Baltimore Ravens he's known for being a very very good blocker now there are a lot of receivers that receivers love to catch they love catching passes and when they don't catch passes some of them will complain they'll vent they'll let it out and I ain't really got a problem with that because that's receivers job to catch passes but you would think that if this guy really didn't have that dog mentality do you think he would be a good blocker could he be a nice guy and be like oh okay I'm I'm getting ready to block you now a corner back or line back or a safety I'm getting ready to go ahead and block you now please it clear out the way because I need my running back so I need my quarterback I need my wire see to get some yak so I'm gonna would you please excuse us no he has to have some nasty in him to in order to be a good blocker he has to you can't be no hmm hi how's it going oh yeah how's the family doing you can't be that and be a good blocker no you got to have that dog in you so with Miles Boykin he's got something there but it's up to the Ravens to really bring it out that much more now of course him and Lamar got to get on the same page they are clearly not there from what we've seen and again hopefully this season just like we hope last season but hopefully this season those opportunities will be there and Lamar got to put more trust in him too Lamar yeah like you said Lamar don't trust him he doesn't we see that because there's plenty of opportunities with Miles Boykin has been open and Lamar be like oh no some straight and even if it's a one-on-one Lamar look I'm gonna be no no no I'm straight sometimes they won't even look his way but they just the Ravens have not pushed Miles Boykin to his full potential so this is why I haven't given up on Miles Boykin like I know a lot of Ravens fans have because I you just know if he was somewhere else and it's like it's crazy because we say this about so many Ravens receivers if they were somewhere else they would eat eat we know Ravens their philosophy and they're just MO is not receiver friendly it's not so with Miles Boykin I'm not until I actually see them really invest in Miles Boykin or he see him go somewhere else and it doesn't work for him somewhere else then I would give up on him then at that point but right now no not even close and the last question on this episode of an FL question from subscribers came from my boy Carlo iron addict he said I've been thinking shout out to my guy to win he said now that some time has passed after this trade I would say this move says a lot of things but one of those things could be that Stanley is looking good and better than expected if that's the case I love this move by the Ravens if not I know there's a plan if it's a long time deal between Orlando or Andrews it's been real Orlando Brown Junior we picked Andrews all day yep see we were just talking about that earlier we all wish him the best in following his dreams but I think we have more pressing matters at hand we are hunting a championship the chiefs had their fun it's all time now but I mean with the chiefs they looking like they trying to have some more fun by all the moves that they have been making got Orlando Brown Junior got Joe Thune bringing back David Tardiff I forgot it's not anyway so I believe this was the best option for us both and I can see us moving Villanueva to right tackle and again hopefully he wouldn't be the end all be all there but we'll see which he has more than enough experience in the league to handle the switch since he did it with the Pittsburgh Steelers the more thing about this trade I'm excited and glad for this aggressive move by Eric Dacosta in this promising strategy for us as Ravens fans earlier this week we only had seven draft picks with only two in the fifth round now to having nine in total with two picks in every round but the second with a starter in the pipeline to replace Orlando Brown Junior at right tackle with those same picks we can say we are now in a better position to really improve on offense and truly build around Lamar Jackson and with his upcoming contract in mind since it seems we can never afford anyone on offense there are some very talented offensive linemen outside linebackers linebacker safeties and most requested wide receivers and the way the cost that has been moving he definitely has some great foresight of the players who we need what do you think you said a plan is a series of small steps without those steps there is no plan shout out to Carlo all right so this is a nice way to end it off um yeah it did this uh the Orlando Brown Junior trade it did give them more picks it certainly did that I agree with that but I also think that it slightly it's slightly set them back a bit too because I mean of course yeah like you said they they got that plan in place and again I think that plan could be tired Phillips but we'll see but it does set them back a bit because now you also created a hole now yeah you do have more opportunities to feel that hole now since you have a few more picks and a higher pick too for now even though I don't expect that I don't I don't think anybody does but I don't expect the Ravens to pick two times in the first round I don't expect that at all I think that the Ravens are going to end up trading back one of those picks I think everybody feels that way too but I feel like the Ravens gonna end up trading back with one of those first round picks to get even more picks because you know they love all them picks I wouldn't I would love for them to either trade up or stay where they at but we'll see we'll see um but yeah they did give the they gave themselves more of an opportunity like it's like Eric the Casa said hey the more times we swing more opportunities we have to hit on these draft picks and that is true um but you also got to look at the situational swinging at least I do now with the situational swinging yeah more draft picks more chances to get more guys but if those draft picks are low then that lowers the chances of those guys being impact players and that's what I've said that the Ravens really need to get this draft more impact players because under Eric the Costa so far under the past two drafts and I know last year is kind of like shaky because of the offseason and what it was but they just need to find a way to get more impact players and no impact players are not just in the first round but if you're picking them in the first round then hey those guys are usually you're almost forced to use those guys that much more because they were higher draft picks so they were higher investments for your team so with that being said I'm just I hope I hope that with this draft biggest thing is getting guys that are gonna make a difference right here and right now not project guys not oh we'll see how that guy does hopefully the good special team I mean you need special team is now I'm not discrediting the special team is now but still you need to find impact guys on this in this draft and then like you said they need to be able to build around LeMau and if the first building around him starts with the offensive line that's why I feel like they took a step back we're getting rid of Orlando Brown Junior so we'll see how they replace him I don't think Alejandro Villanueva will be an upgrade or Dennis Kelly he would he be an upgrade no I don't think it'd be an upgrade but Dennis Kelly probably a more solid option than Villanueva so let's see what the Ravens did that that's a lot of what we have to do right now we just got to wait sit back and see what the Ravens do

It's good to have you join us this morning Chris Thank you once again for having me all right. So, um, which of the headlines I mean interest to you Let's leave it open as we went through the pages of a national dailies Yes, I think we should start with the the action of federal government to the Easter message released by For the Bishop Cooker Matthew Cooker Esperely I knew that the arguments in the Realtor the that Message I am looking at the message. They're looking at the messenger. It is quite unfortunate that is where there's particularly nothing that Bishop Cooker said that is not true and there's nothing that you have said That I've not be repeated over and over again. Don't forget the Not a edas forum Also issues a statement along that line the Islamic Society GNI I think also issued then even Few weeks ago, if not about it the chief man of Apu legislative waters also issued also made mention of some of these things Which led to his being sucked by the board of trustees of that mosque. So Bishop Cooker was always picking the minds of Nigerians and federal government as usual be even Diabetic said in the in the sun leaving all his body exposed rather than a look at those issues Started them by attacking the Bishop to the best and that a girl by she would be spokesperson of the president was saying that if The Bishop is interested the Schumann joint politics that is judges Who body that is not feeling probably girl by she who is the only person in Nigeria? There's no fit in the heat and the problem and all the level of insecurity economic hardship Unemployment Is it not a fact that we're more divided than that? What is it that you have said? It's just flowing following the path of other Revered clergymen for him if you remember messy vivid Somebody there used to be a bishop called who knew me who cook you used to be Bishop of Lagos Darcy's He was also one of those that I've always be a coin Suspended is and saying that got mention mostly and also that time. That was also in a clergy man called. I think Reverend I did to know you. I don't know his designation. I don't know whether he's still alive used to be of the charge of the African Church in Nigeria, and he was also very much. So it is always normal if you go to the Bible I always That we always won't case There we had kings now we have president This is the situation and people are suffering with something to improve the life of your citizens or people Most of them close when they close their ears to that something always happened. So It's quite unfortunate as I said once again, there's someone in the person of ever show we come out and be attacking a more responsive Government will rather look at it as it's where and try to find a way of Making sure that some of these It is that what we have in country whenever anybody there is an issue an objective issues The government will come out with attack dogs and then continue to attack it, but all will and good There'll be any one year for me to exit It is not left for them whether they like it or not And for history to join them which part of the history there with that would be I don't know whether positive or negative It is left to them, but the fact remains that Whatever All that Bishop Hooker said is it to realization of what what is on ground? And they can only but continue to pretend that it's not true So but what do you make of the response of the federal government asking that he joins politics? Maybe it might just be a brilliant one And that's what I said. I said they say you should join politics and I said that was that's been childish because If you want to join politics, is it Robert shield that's going to turn to great politics Um, Robert shield is just an appointee Robert shield to my knowledge has not um contest any election in Nigeria And he has not won any election. It was just appointed Um by the president he used to be an aid of Atico abu baka to the best of my knowledge Prior to the 2015 election after the election and the president peak He was I think he was nominated by the by tico abu baka to serve in the cabinet of President mama de boire So he has never contested any election. So I should even be thinking he's the one that should be contesting The Shop cooker has his work cut out for him. He's a clergyman. He's doing well in what he's doing grab a shahoo To me is a yes, man. And if he's talking about politics, I would rather think they should be constituency in And contest and try to see that he will be elected either in 20 30 position Okay Anybody that says anything concerning the situation of teasing country is not the right way to go And I think the president should call him for that. It's not every time you react to issues It's not every time that silence our time is good. You can it's not everything you react to one that the um the chief in man or for apple Um I didn't hear gal by shahoo issue any statement about that the one that uh the islamic group Where j&i uh also mentioned I didn't hear gal by shahoo the best. So why is it that whenever Bishokuka speaks these jumps on the pray and As I write not also so they should know that they are probably serve them. They are there to serve us Well, our taxes are being used to pay them That is what what is going on there our taxes are being used to pay them So any one of them that seems that is having the president I just want just drop on any Just for the phone or please just know that as I said earlier on This they will see themselves on the side of christie where they want to find themselves It's just barely one year don't they were there before that did you did it to where they today? Let's wait and see what happens All right chris. Let's also take a look at this one uh ego presidency The southeast leaders are asking that consensus should be a thing across party lines And the question is how can this be especially when you have the electoral act giving them, you know the Option of choosing direct primaries in direct and consensus. So Consensus is in the electoral act. So if they want to go on consensus, oh, well, I'm good But those consensus will bring out the best a In our polity because they give us the best candidates. I don't think so I think they should go into the fuel and sort it out and at the end of it End of it. So the best candidates should be able to have it best most often than not At times consensual is an option where you want to trim down the number of when you have over 20 or 30 candidates just name for the position for a position It makes it more difficult for you to be able to streamline yourself and getting somebody a particular candidate So if they within themselves, they agree that That's the need for them to have a consensus. Oh, well, I'm good. I know that um the sudden The south east Candidates about three of them recently met and I agree that they're going to work with you. I know that of which will be um and one of the article happened one one of the line for the pdp Betts they didn't come out to say that they're going to have a consensus Candidates Betto Haneze and other people who just feel that it will be much easier for them As a group if they come together and pick one of them Now that it seems that the pdp If they be silent on whether they're going to throw The presentation ticket open or not. Why the other Zone are also garing up to take candidates For them to come together and choose one of them, but to me I think the best option is for all of them to put together and try and don't forget that also within the pdp currently Tambua, Soraki and Bala and the governor of paochi already agreed that with themselves. They're going to pick up a Candidate, but they Was in the primaries is coming up in the next few weeks and um So many people including myself have already said that it is the turn of the south east to be given the ticket Because the south city seems to be the only japonese school zone that have not been able to Um, I have not been able to get the president to say it's 1999 not even since 1999 since 1966 or there about but It cannot just be dropped on your laps Presidency cannot be dropped on your lap. We have to work so hard for it as a regio as an individual to be able to gather Enough support from all other parts of the country and what that is done and is believing you then the opportunity we give to So the south is um japonese schools don't just don't think that shouldn't think that The presidency will just be dropped on their lap where they say let's go into the process of you have to consult You have to meet with other that's from other parts of the country and they believe that you have what it is I have the candidate right candidate to make it to the job. I'm sure they will support the question as well The issue of 2020 is concerned So, um, let's talk about krisen gigi He says he will definitely declare his intention and that's on tuesday to join the presidential race What do you think about this and he has also mentioned that if nigerians give him the chance to work He would definitely do great for the country The modern area This is gigi has a right. It's hypnotic qualifier Has been a former governor. He has been minister for close to seven years in i think Yeah, I think he's hypnotic qualified But the fact is that can he be able to can he get the ticket of the apc? I don't know how that possible that is it should be an uphill task When you look at the arrays of um candidates that are just me for that job You have ashua jubbalat mentioned From south west. We have the vice president Yamio shiba joe you have written me and made you has also declared and who else who else who else Within the apc But it is his right and he feels that he can be able to muster enough Consensus um What is it now delegates the delegate is about seven seven thousand and eight you are there about that's going to vote What we don't know is Where it will be zoned to bet practically it has to be to the south because unlike the pdp that sleeve his own Open it seems to have made up his mind to zone the presidential ticket to the south It's not within the south to know where to send it whether to this South west south south or south east you have a magic coming from south south already You have in giga who is declaring today coming from the south east you have The governor of um a bonus stage um davu mahi from south east. You also have um Vice president as well as ashua jubbalat And we also heard that one or two governors from the south west are also going to throw their parts into the ring but um Is the delegates that I mean that if it's delegates and whoever they choose then they have to make sure that they That's somebody that's formidable also that can be able to challenge the candidate of pdp and other political parties That will be coming up with a lesson that my problem for the Is that I wonder what they're going to campaign whoever emerges the candidate of a pcs is going to campaign on the legacies of the The current government just as the vice president said that's going to Prove on the legacies of President Muhammad Bahari and I continue to ask what are those legacies is the legacies of unemployment? Is this legacy when it comes to insecurity? Is it legacy or on the economy where the naira is close to almost 590 to a dollar now or which of the legacies I don't know but In his case I mean in his case he said he will re-engineer niger the way he did with an amber estate when he was governor so Maybe that might just be something that's sellable Well, he will re-engineer I judge the way he re-engineered an amber estate. He didn't finish his term. So I wouldn't know. Yes He did one or two thing, but he has been this government for almost a few years We have seen the issue of labor Currently as well at me on strike for months Last year as was on strike for one free year almost one free year and we saw how he handled it as a minister of labor If that is what is bringing together I will for me as far as I'm concerned it is dead on arrival because he would it doesn't have the capacity for me if he cannot handle Just a busy issue of asu as the minister of labor there How can you be able to how can we hand over a whole nation like niger to you and believe that you can be able to deliver If you cannot deliver on little things then there's no possibility of you delivering on the bigger one All right, so he shouldn't be talking about An amber let me tell us what he has done in the past seven years as a minister Now this is also underneath the boat caption for the leadership It talks about the people's democratic parties scramble to reduce the number of aspirant Presidential aspirant and you are saying that it's free for all especially as you have a lot of persons contesting Don't you think that this might just be Another way of depriving the people of their constitutional right Chris came they wanted to do we still have you On the line well Go ahead Okay, so it seemed like we have been And set off the led by the of We are On how the Of Will be done and that committee as we said is report to be nothing is a business council Although this snippets from that That Has been True So until that committee comes up it seems as it were present in life. It is an open race and every candidate from Is free for now But until the national executive council come out to tell us specifically whether it has been true And region the candidates will continue to campaign us So, um, um, also on the Nigerian Tribune this morning a fair Baba Lola said to the fair I mean that's gotten a lot of reactions people Those who have actually not read beyond the headlines seem to be having a different opinion But this is what he's suggesting so spend the 2023 elections set up six month Interium government and that's because we cannot continue to recycle the this old In his word. I mean the same people not the word old in it say but the same persons Who have been in power? But what do you think about this ideology? Should we consider recycling for the fact that we don't want to Bring back the crop of persons that we've had almost from 1999 That is out of the window for me Out of the window To the That is out of the window Democratic system That is of And And And Is It's not possible Out of all the countries Right Because Is because of the fact that most people don't believe that their food counts And you look at the number of registered voters and those that vote after any election you come to ask yourself Why just a few number of people elected because they don't believe in the system Leave uh in the electoral process because that person can't believe that their vote counts Want to go to make people to believe that when they vote their vote we can't then that is where the issue is So there for me an entering government is a normal It will not work that's never work and will never work under the circumstances as it were present in it It's been separate after the Interprement is working about 80 percent of the people that will come and contest so how do we stop them from Contesting it's not possible. Are you going to do that? So for me Um It's not the way to do it But he also weighs I mean some of the issues his proposed and consents for him about For instance, you have the constitution according to him. It's a military constitution And it hasn't really captured the current reality of You know the country and also he talked about having provision for part-time legislators where you don't have to have it You know on a full-skilled basis. These are some of the Consents and issues That he has raised and the reason why we should you know take that time and propose having some new constitution What can we achieve within six months? I think what should be cumbersome yet? When you talk about taking with the constitution, yes I took an agreement and we need to be able to take out the constitution That's we need for us to have a holistic look as a constitution present as it were Yes, this is not the constitution. We are working But I need to go back to last by the military in 1999 and everybody believed that this is not a holistic Constitution that they don't have the input of Nigeria But we have the national conferences. We have so many just suggestions we are made But the correct government and some of the government have refused to look at that report I would think and as a full-skilled but it's supposed to go back With that constitution conference Those of the both I look at the issues at the two and some of the pertinent issues that jamun issues that we are raised and Not with her the way the current constitution The structure is not doing us any good or good and it has only been that We've agreed that it is not working We can do it with this constitution and Get the new one or we do the necessary amendment but you know that national assembly recent and moment Some of the clothes that take about 47 or so Closest of the constitution that is just a minute part of this There you will talk about the issue of State policing we talk about We saw a bit more power to the state. We are talking about the issue of mineral resources We are talking of even the issue of restructuring as a whole that the way Nigeria Is calling it is not working. Yes, I agree that we can do that but that does not mean that I was the most And that's Which will do us no good at all. When you set up a history government, we are with the president person not south west east It was the cost about 20 years back. It is not it's not working at all Well, it's quite unfortunate because I mean if you look at some of the argument and proposition that is put out as much as a lot of Pessents have not agreed has talked about the fact that you know, this constitution makes Politics and you've found out a lot of people are just Trooping I mean look at the number of persons who have declared interest to become president Look at the number of persons who have declared interest in their various states to become governors Council chairman and all of that. What exactly are they're really going there to serve the interests? Of the people and constantly we look at the policies every time we look at government policies How much of those policies across the entire country? Whether at the state level or the federal level represent the interest of the people or reflect the interest because policies on the other hand should solve problems But that has not been the case for us But fingers crossed and like we always say Nigerian is a nascent democracy We hope that we get to a point where we have it all together. We will keep Keep on keep keeping on and keep pushing until we get that I really I know that we're out of time and I've been prompted You know to just go off But just for the fact that you are a parent. I want to believe that you are parent The incident that happened the krislan Incident that happened the sex scandal the video and all of this and the fact that the federal leg of state government has Shut down schools required that schools in the states be shut down What are your thoughts on this in just a few seconds? Yes I'm a father of three children two years and a boy so I know what you're talking about and for me. What's happened is just unfortunate that One I've been compared too much because it seems our parents have lost the morality We have To schools For what happened because if a child is putting your cost on the I will take the child weight far away to buy and you cannot be able to monitor what the child is doing or what's doing Then you have a moral question My own on this is that why honest as why is it only this land this particular school? Not forget me that we do there's a teacher in this school That was jared for 60 years for defining a two-year-old child here Let's see if you don't know that That a teacher in this distant krislan school has been sentenced to 60 years in prison. It's still imprisonment For defining a two-year-old child That shows you the moral question as far as this school is concerned and I think before This school is open a due diligence must be done by the government and make sure that the writing is done But what is happening is just A rather unfortunate incident Where our children seems to have lost it where the parents have lost their right to be with parents of the year This never happened when we are going of people are saying that is the new age What about the new age? This is not the way to go Currently as parents Just leader committee leaders and the entire country should be able to rescue our children From what is happening. What they are doing is what I mean Through the internet or the advance of technology, but for a child of 10 years That is a no-no to me. It's quite important. Thank you kris kende one do for being part of the show this morning It's been a delight. I mean great Thoughts that you've put out there I will look forward to sharing more of your thoughts on this platform Thank you very much and do Fantastic day to you too. Thank you so much and that's the size of Of the press this morning. We'll take a quick break. But just before then Let's tell you what happened today been the 19th day in april in history


I have a song today. A song to practice have to. Please listen and read along. I have to go buy a computer. I have to get a laptop. I have to get a computer for school. I need it to do my work. He has to go buy a computer. He has to get a laptop. He has to get a computer for school. He needs to do his work. Let's do it one more time. I have to go buy a computer. I have to get a laptop. I have to get a computer for school. I need to do my work. He has to go buy a computer. He has to get a laptop. He has to get a computer for school. He needs to do his work.

Let's go over to the camera. A note is a play base here on the bottom of the camera. We hook the plate to the camera. And make sure to tighten the plate under it to make sure the camera doesn't fall or break. That would be good. Second, again for painting, we want to paint something over for a video or a video film. And you can do it with this handle both ways. Or you can do it with these. Rehearing. When you see this set up, you are on air for bed. It's green, so it's in preview, right? Now this is a cover for the screen. It flips out like this if you want blinders. If that's good for you. If you don't want the cover. There's a button on here to remove this. This is a screen to turn it on. It's on the bottom left. It's on and off switch. I'm going to turn it on. It's on to the right side. This is brightness, contrast and peaking. Focus peaking is a real time focus mode. It uses the camera's live view focusing to highlight peak contrast areas. On the other side, you can see the reflection. Other thing is the name. This is cool because it's a touch screen. You can adjust the settings. There's two modes. The film and video modes on the camera are in the recording settings screen. For shutter speed, the fastest shutter speed and nearest angle on the black magic camera is 45 degrees. On the camera. If you want the blender, you can just put it on. If you don't want this, you can... This is the Alice, that's the main part of the camera. There's another one. There's two spots you can focus. The peaking mode is opening focus. Seeing up here, this is the manual focus of the camera. On the right side of me, there are different outputs or inputs of cables. This one we know is HDMI, which I'm going to unplug. On the left side, there's an internet, I think. There's a quick one to feature it. On the right side, there's more outputs. On the other side, there's a USB. These are actual cables. I'm showing how they push them in and out. Every year, I use a headset. Here's a switch thing. Here's the headset. You probably will see a double thing right here. I'm going to make sure the camera is level, which is not right now. Now it's level. You can see from over here. For turning down lenses, first, have to turn off the camera. Make sure this comes in. So you have that cap for this, so you won't break it. Breaking it all over down, which I'm not interested in, just explaining. You have to have the camera securely. You can put it down on your table to unlock the plate. On the left side, and the right side too. And the side backwards. Thanks for listening and watching.


Good morning to you. I am Justin Acadone and this is the Newsbreak from PLUS TV Africa. President Mohamed Buhari has pledged Nigeria's commitment to the restoration of democratic role in Mali, Guinea and Burkina Faso. Buhari, who spoke at the opening of the 2022 Second Ordinary Session of the Economic Commencement of West African State Air Force Parliament in Abuja, we affirm the country's commitment to political stability in the West African sub-region. He said Nigeria would continue to support Air Force institutions in its efforts and ensuring the return of countries in the region to a constitutional role. The President also reaffirmed his commitment to credible elections in Nigeria next year. We see this opportunity to reiterate my commitment to free, fair and transparent elections and smooth transitions. This is one legacy. This is one legacy that I want to bequeath not only to Nigeria but to the region as a whole. I therefore urge you to perform your sacred responsibility of considering the community budget with diligence while bearing in mind the sacrifice of various countries in the field of community level.


Sergei Shoigu began to defy the instructions of the Kremlin. Russia's Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu is trying to portray the Ukrainian counter-offensive as a failed operation despite the Kremlin's instructions not to downplay the gains made in the counter-offensive and not to exaggerate Russia's successes in order to position the Ministry of Defence as an effective leader in Ukraine hostilities following the recent Wagner Group mutiny. This was stated by the Institute for the Study of War ISW. Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu attempted to portray the Ukrainian counter-offensive as a failed effort against the backdrop of the NATO summit. Shoigu implausibly claimed on 11 July that Ukrainian forces have lost 26,000 service members and 1,244 tanks and infantry fighting vehicles since starting counter-offensive operations on 4 June. Shoigu also tried to present possible Ukrainian interdiction efforts in southern Ukraine as similarly ineffective by claiming that Russian air defences have intercepted 176 Hymars rockets and 27 Storm Shadow cruise missiles since the start of the counter-offensive. The ISW said. According to the ISW, assessment, Russian Defence Ministry reporting on Ukrainian losses is likely highly inflated, with even Russian military bloggers pointing out that the Defence Ministry was counting strikes on already damaged and destroyed vehicles as new losses of Ukrainian equipment. Shoigu's rhetoric about the Ukrainian counter-offensive notably contradicts the Kremlin's reported media guidance instructing Russian state media not to downplay the counter-offensive or overstate Russian successes. Shoigu may be increasingly ignoring established Kremlin guidance on covering the counter-offensive in a renewed effort to portray the Ministry of Defence as an effective manager of the war in Ukraine following the Wagner Group's rebellion. The ISW report reads.
