THIS WOULD BE A MASSIVE MISTAKE FOR BALTIMORE RAVENS!

THIS WOULD BE A MASSIVE MISTAKE FOR BALTIMORE RAVENS!

Could the Baltimore Ravens actually trade Katon Mitchell? Well, that’s what Jeremy Fowler said in an article published on ESPN earlier today. Let’s read the excerpt. It says, “Wright, who’s another running back, is a player I’ve had on my radar for that very reason. A lot of teams were high on him in the 2024 draft, including the Dallas Cowboys, which has a soft need after the Miles Sanders injury. And here’s a change of pace option. Baltimore’s Katon Mitchell. He has gamechanging speed.” Oh, yeah. He certainly does. We don’t ever get to see it because the Baltimore Ravens have chosen not to use him this year for whatever reason. But anyway, continuing it says um he has gamechanging speed but is the odd man out in the Ravens back field. Just even that part alone, it sucks to hear that. It’s obviously true because we see how they play their running backs. You got Derrick Henry, we knew he was the guy. Then you got Justice Hill as well. And then you got Rashene Ali. And then somewhere over there, maybe down at the bottom, maybe around the corner, maybe in another atmosphere. Then you got Katon Mitchell. I I really still do not know what it is. Maybe it’s the I I’ve talked to a lot of Ravens fans recently, especially when we was at the game last week and a lot of Ravens fans brought it up like, “Hey, Harball, he’s a special teams guy and they so many Ravens fans expressed their frustration with how John Harbaugh focuses so much to an extreme on special teams.” Like, if you do not contribute significantly on special teams, then you will not have no real opportunity. And I’ve been thinking about that a lot and and you think about it specifically with Keaton Mitchell and and Harball’s comments from early this season on what he said about Keem Mitchell with special teams and it’s like uh I can’t argue against it. I I not that I’m for what John Harball said, but I can’t argue against Ravens fan sentiments when it comes to that. But anyway, um back to the article said he has gamechanging speed, but is the odd man out in Ravens backfield. It’s worth noting that Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz was with the Baltimore Ravens when the team signed Katon Mitchell as an undrafted free agent in 2023. If the Ravens traded Katon Mitchell, I would love that for him and for his potential opportunity that he could get elsewhere. I would hate it though for the team. I would hate it for the Ravens. I would hate it for Katon Mitchell with the Ravens. I I would hate it on a lot of different levels. Reason being is because he’s proven himself on offense. And the thing, and we’ve had this conversation already. That’s why we so confused as to why the Baltimore Ravens just refuse to play Katon Mitchell. They refuse to get him in there. It’s the weirdest thing, man. It really is. He’s much more explosive than a Rashene Ali. He’s even more explosive than Justice Hill. Y’all know I love Justice Hill. And Justice Hill is explosive now. Don’t get it twisted. But Katon Mitchell, his explosiveness is just it’s on a completely different level, man. It really is. So why would you restrict not only Katon Mitchell, but restrict your offense by not using one of your most explosive weapons on the entire team? It’s so weird, man. How the Baltimore Ravens have done this with Katon Mitchell. I I I really don’t get it. I don’t because we remember a couple of years ago when he first came on the scene and again I go back to where we first signed him and so many Ravens fans were hype on Keith they like how did this dude not get drafted oh this boy is the real deal. So I was like hm let let me just see for myself a Ravens fan just hyping somebody up or is this dude really like that? So I watched some stuff from him in college. I said okay he got some real speed. Then I watched him in the preseason I say oh he got some real speed. But then I say hold up it looked good in the preseason but what about in the regular season? Ravens kept him around. He went crazy with crazy with it. He went insane in regular season action against starting defenses. He was with his starting offense, but he went crazy against starting defenses, too. So, it wasn’t just preseason hype. It wasn’t none of that. So, I’m like he and they were using him a lot. And this was obviously before they got Derrick Henry. And it was after they tried to get Derrick Henry, but the Titans shut it down at the last second. So that Derrick Henry not coming to the Ravens in 2023, it ended up working out big time for Keaton Mitchell. But then of course he got hurt. He got hurt. Um and that was very very unfortunate. Um because that just messed up uh the majority of his 2024. Uh but it’s nice that he’s been back out there for 2025, but he ain’t been back out there for 202. He’s been healthy in 2025, but he ain’t been back out there in 2025 for whatever reason. Um, and I just I will I don’t understand it. Um, but I could see like that’s why it does actually make sense that he is a trade candidate because the Ravens, they don’t use him and they obviously don’t care to use him. He’s just there just on the active roster just there for the ride. Um, so it’s like again it’s it would be a bittersweet thing if Katon Mitchell did get traded. bitter because I hate that the Ravens didn’t even try to barely get him involved this year. Sweet though for him because he could potentially go do something for somebody else and just really show like, hey, y’all should have done this uh when I was in Baltimore. And now we hear my favorite part of the video where we get to feature your questions. First question came from my guy seven who is a team keep it clean patron. Appreciate you. He said, “Hey, great. It’s been a minute. I hope the family and the rest of the flock is doing well.” Oh, you know family’s good. The flock. Oh, he ain’t so well. You know why? But anyway, he said, “I do not believe the season is over by any means.” I I love that. Love it. You ain’t even got to say no more. Question can be done right there. But anyway, he said, “But that can change in these next two games. If we drop one of the two, scrap the season and clean house, get as many quality picks as you can to salvage the season. I think a trade for a top defensive tackle has to be in the works.” I agree. I I do. You could do some more stuff than that, too. Um internally and externally. Internally, you probably ain’t going to trade for no offensive lineman. make some changes on that offensive line, specifically at both guard positions. Um, externally, I do expect them to address defensive tackle and edge rusher. Uh, but anyway, continuing Ted, there’s no reason EDC should be sitting on any picks past the third round after the trade deadline. Kevin Zitler and Jeffrey Simmons for Mark Andrews, Baitman, and Ojabo and two fifths and a six. That’s a Oh, that’s a trade right there. That actually Oh, but you said Mark Andrews and Rashad Baitman. Oh my goodness. Woo. So, our receivers at that point would be Zay Flowers, DeAndre Hopkins, Tez Walker, Tylon Wallace, um Leonte Wester, uh that would be something right there. Um now, DeAndre Hopkins, he’s the starter, so there’s there’s that. But Rashad Bait, Rashad Baitman, man, I feel like they haven’t gotten him going yet. Um, and he’s like you have a good situation with Rashad Baitman because he’s already on his third contract. Um, is very very cap friendly. So, that actually does make him a a really I don’t think he’s going to get traded though, but that does make him a good potential trade candidate because he’s young and he’s healthy and is again is a very cap friendly deal. It’s not no crazy wide receiver top of the market deal at all. Um, he is on an extreme discount right now. Um, but Mark Andrews, I can understand that because they just ain’t been able to get him going at all. But Lamar has been out, so that’s a big part of it. Uh, but he’s on the last year of his deal. So that would be a something rather than nothing deal similar to Adaf Way. You don’t plan on signing him to a contract extension, then you’re like, “All right, let’s get something before we get nothing.” Um, but to get a Kevin Zyler and Jeffrey Simmon, my guy, he going big. He said, “I’m either going big or going home.” And I ain’t going back to the crib. Next question from another team between patient, my guy, Kyle. He said, “What’s up, Graven? How are you and the fam doing? I just want to share a concern. I have about this team. After the bye-week, we enter the easiest part of the schedule. Uh what I am worried about is a repeat from last year. I’m worried that the team will start winning against the bad teams from here on out and our team will seem to look better. This is an issue because if you remember last year, the same thing happened where our team, specifically our defense, looked bad in the first half of the season, but all of a sudden they turned it around in the second half, but we all know that that was due to a lack of quality teams. I think the same thing will happen again this year, and we will all suddenly look better and then we than we actually are. My issue with this is that we will give our fan base um but more importantly the organization false hope. Let’s just say we barely miss or even make the playoffs. I feel like our organization will give John and or a pass because of injuries and think just because we turn the season around in the second half that they deserve to stay. That’s a great point. Um like I always say, I’m never going to root against the success of the Baltimore Ravens. I always want them to succeed. I always want them to win. I always want them to be in the playoffs. I always want them to just go as far as they could possibly go. Um, but uh that is a really really good point that you make. It could give false hope to the organization and make them be like, “Oh, you know what? John Lee turned it around. Zachie turned it around. Todd, he turned it around. Everybody turned it around. Everything okay? Everything’s good now. Hey y’all, let’s keep this thing going. Running back.” So yeah, even though I I am still continuing to lean on the side that anything short of the Super Bowl is a failure and and John Harball, they they just they tear this thing apart. They get rid of Harball. They they they move on and that will mean everybody else under him, too. They just I think anything short of the Super Bowl, I think it’s a completely different coaching staff next season. I still do believe that. But again, your point is very strong and you you could you probably going to be more right than me, but still I I I I still think it it’s going to happen. I said anything short of the Super Bowl, I think John Har is out of here and everybody else, too. Uh anyway, he said uh maybe um Oh, no. He said nothing will nothing with the coaching staff organization uh will change and we’ll just move on to next year using injuries as an excuse to not change anything. Maybe I’m just worrying too much, but I have a bad feeling about our team’s future. What do you think? Am I overreacting or do you think this can be a recipe for disaster? Thank you and take care. No, you’re not overreacting at all. Uh, not one bit. Um, and your concerns are very very Sorry, I had to get my seat adjusted. Uh, your concerns are very very realistic. Um, it it could go down that way. I hope it doesn’t, but it is realistic. The underdog story. Next question came from my guy Griffins. He said, “Uh, through this whole thing, I knew that the Ravens could get back on track, but I’m glad the buy was there to give us a break to stop and re-evaluate.” Yeah, cuz normally um by weeks so early in a season, oh, they suck. But this one came right on time for the Baltimore Ravens. I almost wish we had two or three by weeks. Anyway, he said um as silly and dumb as it is that they only play good when they have something to prove, not in the playoffs. He said that me. Anyway, he said, “I believe that they are set up to make a run. 11 and six doesn’t sound bad, especially by Christmas. This team rolls through teams. Let’s carry this mindset to February. And all you fans who will who I will say rightfully turn your back on this team, do not come back, especially when we win. My my boy Griffin is tired of it all. He said, “We going to get this thing right.” Next question came from my guy Swin 17. He said, “Good day to you and the family in the channel. Appreciate that, SW.” He said, “I always say the season really starts in week five, but for us, it seems like the end.” Uh, today it was an unspirited effort. Uh, 53 was suited, but only five gave real effort. I agree with your post show on or your post show opinion on John Harbaugh. He needs to get his box in gear and get on out of there. He is wasting everyone’s time. Wow, those some powerful words right there. He said the defense this year is so bad it is breaking new records on terrible. What made me mad was an unknown player scored and when Oh, he talking about in the Texans game. An unknown player went and scored and did a Ray Lewis dance and everyone just sat there and let them score again. This defense can’t catch water in a storm. They are that inept. Oh my goodness. Woo. He said the offensive line couldn’t open a hole for Henry to run through nor hold up long enough for the quarterback to pass. And thanks again as always. Blessed and yet again, I will be hopeful on Thursday to see the Ravens football again on Sunday. Well, how did you feel about that Rams game, my friend? And how you feeling going into the buy now. Well, what he said, his concerns, they still continue to be concerns uh even after the Rams game, too. Uh where the Baltimore Ravens, they just it’s looking rough right now. But hopefully this bye-week serves them right and they can clean up a lot of their mess. Next question came from my guy Stefan. He said, “I ain’t raving and Stefan. I did my first super chat during the Chiefs and Ravens game and now this is my first question.” Oh yeah, my boy’s on a roll. Appreciate you, my friend. He said, “Have you seen the movie Ted?” Yeah, I did a long time ago. I I do not like Mark Wahberg like at all. I I don’t like him. He is He’s not funny. He’s not entertaining at all. Um he just That’s just my opinion though. Him him as an actor. I don’t know him as a person. I heard some crazy stuff about him as a person and it that don’t really help anything. Um but as an actor, his movies just they’re they’re not for me. That’s what I I I should have said that. They’re they’re not for me. It’s Yeah. He just I don’t Yeah. Anyway, um so back to the movie. He said a specific part that plays in my head consistently is when Ted got his job and he was doing everything in his power to get fired, but but they kept promoting him. I think I see where you going with this. Anyway, he said, “That’s how I feel watching Harball.” He said, “For easily the last four years, he’s been doing everything to get fired from boneheaded decisions to the stubbornness hindering the team. I feel like the best chance to get rid of him was the year Michael’s getting head coaching considerations. We should have promoted him and did whatever with Harball. I feel like if we did that, we would have at least gotten one Super Bowl.” Okay. Uh he also said, “Instead, we get a horrible stubborn coach who can’t admit filele is a failed experiment.” uh and and that or was a horrible hire and him not fighting for bigger names when available is our downfall. I would have gladly given up two first for Michael Parsons even if it was for a one or twoyear rental. A premier pass rusher is worth their weight in gold and he’s showing that in Green Bay. Hey, that’s real man. Um yeah, can’t go against that. Uh and and you know what’s crazy is that they traded him to the Packers. He got that crazy enormous deal, but they they didn’t even trade him to the AFC. They kept him in their same conference. They’re going against him this year. They they went against him in what was it? Week four, I think. So, it’s like they were willing to trade him in the conference. They were willing to go against him early on in the season. It’s like, man, like you just think about the possibility like you could have given them to the Ravens and you wouldn’t had to worry about him to what week 17 or 18. I forgot when we played the pack cuz I think it’s week 17. But anyway, um he said uh oh, there we go. He said um or going after a wide receiver, actually upgrading or actually upgrading our offensive line, among other things. At this point, he’s not even stubborn. He’s straight up selfish by ruining our greatest quarterback’s prime with stupid decisions. Sorry for the windy rant, but I had to get that off my chest. And he put # hobbo gota go. Blessing in disguise. Well, I don’t think you got this blessing, my friend. Next question came from my guy X-Man. He said, “What’s up in graven?” writing this as the Ravens are getting blown out by the Houston Texans currently 44 to 10 in the fourth quarter. Well, at least we ain’t giving no more points when you wrote this, so that’s good. He said, “The only thing that is going through my mind right now is how this could possibly be a blessing in disguise. Hopefully, this blowout will lead to somebody being fired.” He said, “Preferably or in Harball, but I have a feeling Harball’s not going anywhere. Do you think anyone will get fired after this disaster?” I thought there were many fireball offenses in there, but I did not think it was going to happen. After the Texans game, I wouldn’t have been mad if it did. But had the Rams game went like that with the timing, then I think it could have happened. And I think it would have happened because only because of the timing and that’s it. Simply because the Ravens have the by-week. They have the by-week. So, if they fired somebody, obviously one of the coordinators, that being Zach or then they will be like, “All right, we’ll use this by week to just get everything readjusted so we can have somebody else as our interimm defensive coordinator. Uh, and we’ll have two weeks to prepare for the Bears. Um, and just really two weeks to prepare our defense overall and just get them acclimated with our new defensive coordinator and how he’s going to be doing things. But um with the timing with it being a week before the by-week, well I guess two weeks before the by-week technically um that’s why I think Zach or ended up being safe. Next question came from my guy Zack. He said, “Angra, I just wanted to follow up my previous question with a solution and wanted to get your take. Let’s say we got rid of the whole coaching staff. I like the idea of bringing in Brian Flores as head coach. He has been a head coach before and is a great defensive line. His defensive style is very aggressive and requires athletic and smart DBs, which we have. I think Flores would be great to revitalize the defensive culture we have been lacking in Baltimore. Uh like we have been saying, no one fears the Ravens defense anymore. And I think Flores can change that. I like that. I I I do. I I like that. Um and he’s specializing. Not to say that you can’t have a coach that doesn’t specialize in something, but he does specialize on that side of the field. So he can have input on it. He can add whatever takes he got or whatever. Hey, this is what y’all need to do. This is oh, this is how this should be. he can add his expertise to it. Um, and then as far as offense, just let the offensive coordinator handle that. And I think John Hobbar pretty much does that too. Yeah, he he actually does that a little too much because he he even said it himself like, “Hey, um, he said I remember I forgot what game it was. Was it the Texans or the Chiefs game?” I forget. But he basically saying like, “Look, we ain’t stick to our game plan. We could have stuck to something like hold up. You’re the head coach. Ain’t you supposed to step in? If y’all ain’t sticking to it, why you not overriding it?” So anyway, um he said, “For offense, I like Mike Laflur from LA. More specifically, I want to see Lamar and Henry in the McY and Shanahan system. Just a theory, but I think it’s the system that will unlock what we believe this duo could be.” We started to unlock it last year, but I don’t know what happened. I don’t know what happened. One of my guys just text me a little bit ago and he said he feel like Todd Monkin may have reached his ceiling. And I said, “Oh, that’s I don’t want to think that, but man, not this fast, right? Not this quick, right?” Even though we do see a lot of questionable stuff. Something to think about. Anyway, he said, uh, his principles, oh, his principles are rooted in outside zone with play action off of that. Outside zone is Henry’s specialty, and Lamar being the most prolific dual threat ever in play action will put defenses in so much conflict. What do you think about that pair of coaches or do you have someone else in mind? I like it. At first when you put Mike, I thought you were going to say Mike McDonald for offensive coordinator. I was going to say hold up Mike I mean not Mike McDonald. Mike McDaniel I was going to say I don’t think Mike McDaniel Brian Flores I don’t think they were they were worked together but um cuz cuz wasn’t No, Mike McDaniel got fired for Brian Flores I believe. Well no Brian Flores got fired and then Mike McDaniel he’s the coach that that end up taking over. So, hey, so they didn’t I don’t So, I don’t think they crossed paths, but um maybe they could work together, work it out, work everything out in Baltimore, but um I I like your plan, especially the floor. Uh if he’s on the Ram staff, then yeah, he knows some stuff. Uh and I mean, if you want to take it up a notch, you want Shawn McVey to come to Baltimore. Hey, Shawn McVey, come through, too. But, um I uh I like it. I like it. I do like it. Another option that I I’ve been saying, too, would be Steve Spagnolo from the Chiefs. I know a lot of people saying, “Oh, he would not leave Kansas City. He would not leave Andy Reid.” But like, I mean, Steve Shotti would just really had to cut the check. Next question came from my guy Malachi. He said, “Angen, all I can say is protect your mental and all the team keep it clean as well as well as the whole Ravens flock.” That’s real right there. And I appreciate that a lot because that’s so so so important. Um, I see a lot of stuff uh on whether Twitter, YouTube a little bit, mostly Twitter, social media, Instagram, it could be too. Um, and when fan bases are going through periods like we going through, it can cause a lot of people to just get real real nasty, disrespectful, and whatnot. Um, so sometimes I just like, you know what, I ain’t even going to look at that. I ain’t even going to pay no mind even because you got to do that because people will say the most outlandish stuff. They’ll say the craziest things just because they upset with the football team just because they may be upset with something in their personal but just because they may be upset period and they will try to take it out on you. They’ll try to disrespect you. They’ll try to do all stuff to all this kind of stuff to you, say all this kind of stuff to you. And you just got to keep it moving, man. That’s it. But no, that that’s that’s real, man. So whatever you got to do in whatever way, yes, protect your mentals, man. appreciate that. He said, “We’re all disappointed, but I pray and hope everyone is doing well.” Now, on to my questioning, Ray. Remember when I sent that question to you after the 2024 divisional round loss to the Bills where I said, “The duo of Harball and Lamar Jackson just does not work.” Uh, in that question, I stated whether it’s Lamar or Harbaugh, whichever one makes mistakes in critical moments of the game, it has a trickle down effect on the whole team. Whether it’s Harball’s inability to manage the clock or use timeouts, or whether to when the team faces adversity to get the team back on track, whether it’s Lamar having to play hero ball and make a critical mistake like the interception or fumble in a Chiefs game, it has a trickle down effect on this team and it yesterday in that Chiefs game just confirms it. And you know what’s crazy? Sometimes I be hoping like, all right, if there’s a question that I couldn’t get to uh right after the game or in that week after the game, hopefully it won’t even apply anymore because the Ravens turned whatever that was around. But his question is about the Chiefs game, but everything is still applying. It it happened after the Chiefs game, but it’s still applying. Uh anyway, he said um uh yeah, he said yesterday in the Chiefs game just confirms it. Now, granted, I’m not blaming all of this on Harbaugh or Lamar because there’s plenty of blame to go around, but Lamar is feeling too much pressure and I don’t think he can handle it. I’m not talking about just from his terrible offensive line. I’m talking mentally because Lamar wants to score every drive. But I think specifically this season, he knows he has to score every drive because I mean, this defense is atrocious. You know what? Um, that’s funny, but it’s also sad and it’s also true. Not that he can’t take the pressure, but because it is a lot of pressure. Yeah, he has to score every drive when he’s out there. They have to cuz again, you see the first the first game it was 41 to 40. The score was 41 to 40. If you you if you score 40 points, that should be a win every time. The next game, well, that was a Browns game. They Ravens scored 41. So, okay, cool. Then the next game against the Lions, it was 38-30. So they scored 30 points. That’s not necessarily a win every time, but more times out of out of out of most times you’re going to win that game if you score 30 points. But okay, cool. So then um then Oh, then it was a Chiefs and then that was it. Yeah, that was his last game. So he he only scored once in that game, then he got hurt and then that was it. So we ain’t seen him since, but we’ll see him in the next game against the Bears. So yeah, that is that is a good point. I never thought about that that that pressure. Uh we have been thinking about how bad the defense has been, but that specifically what what you said, I hadn’t really thought about that. Anyway, uh he said that’s why when that interception happened, I believe he just checked out because in the back of his mind, he just knew that it was going to bite him. Uh and honestly, uh he’s mentally checked out and that trickled down to the whole team. This Ravens team had looked like they just didn’t want to be on that field yesterday. This brings me to my to my next point and John Haw, he just seems like he doesn’t care. His team, his quarterback, his coordinators, they are just playing bad and his players are clearly frustrated. Where’s the control over this team? Where’s the leadership? To me, it seems like he might have just really lost the locker room. And like always in these press conferences, he just gives generic answers and slight little shots at his players and coaching staff without him ever taking accountability. The constant unpreparedness to the point where your own players don’t want to be on the field and where they’re having player only meetings. This is all just ridiculous. But to my original point, sorry for the long rant. I believe the Ravens are in a situation and if not now, I believe very soon they will just have to choose between Harbaugh or Lamar. I don’t think that sounds far-fetched. I don’t think that sounds unrealistic. Let’s keep going though. He said, “I just want to hear your thoughts on that. Thank you for everything you do and please continue to send out videos. I know it’s probably hard right now, but just know me and Ravens Flock appreciate you.” No, I appreciate y’all, man, more than you realize, man. Y’all like I tell you that all the time cuz it’s real all the time. But I I do think that is a um a realistic uh scenario right there where they would need to choose um again and and after this season I could see that being a choice cuz with Lamar’s contract again going up to 75 mil and and cap the cap hit of it going up to 75 mil Harball um he would be what? Oh, that this would actually next year would actually be the first year of John Hall’s contract extension because he was in the last year. This was his last year and they signed him to a three-year contract extension. So now he got three more years after this season. Um so not that they’ve already made a choice cuz you could obviously fire a head coach even though he got a contract. But um but yeah, you’re going to have to make some decisions. I think you are. And I just I don’t know myself obviously, but I wonder how Lamar Jackson feels about everything.

Could Baltimore Ravens trade Keaton Mitchell? This would be very frustrating if they did. But at the same time, they don’t use him, so you could understand why it would make sense from a football business standpoint.
