00:00news from the nest here on this turn it up tuesday isaiah likely one of the 19
00:05unrestricted free agents that the ravens have here in 2026 25 years old 14 games last year
00:12only one touchdown and i broke down the stats a couple weeks back where 2024 likely at andrews
00:20combined for over a thousand yards almost 20 touchdowns 100 catches last year didn't even
00:25come close to duplicating that production likely's really dipped never really got it going after the
00:32foot injury but at 25 years old he hits free agency the open market for the first time the ravens
00:39have
00:39already extended mark andrews paying him a hefty salary da costa did say at the combine he'd like
00:46to keep likely almost kind of explain where there are scenarios and we could do so i don't see it
00:53just rebeck by the way we're breaking down the list he said likely goes and we pretty much talked
00:58about it right after they signed andrews well yeah likely's gone and i would think it'd be a stunning
01:04turn of events if he wasn't bob i was just thinking you know because you mentioned like which teams had
01:10money you know who'd be a good fit for likely chargers i think the chargers would be in mike
01:20mcdonald or mike mcdaniel offense and hortiz being out there and stuff former ravens well the gatson had
01:28kind of a breakout year for them yeah the young tight end but you have two hey yeah we can
01:34improvise and
01:35adapt in play calling here for sure i think you know if he doesn't get the money that he wants
01:46which maybe he doesn't um which i'm guessing he's going to probably want what and at least what
01:53andrew's got if he's not getting that he'll do a one-year deal and then you know try to have
01:59a big
01:59year and then go make his money yeah chargers almost 84 and a half million dollars out there on the
02:05open
02:05market what do you think nolan this is kind of a foregone conclusion that isaiah likely has played his
02:10last snap with the ravens oh definitely yeah no doubt about it although what vinnie was saying
02:15there it is interesting we've just assumed that his value uh across the league was regarded as pretty
02:22high uh right but it's all been potential based you look back on his career injury wise blocked by
02:29andrews whatever it was he never had that one season where it was like okay all the pieces came together
02:35this was the the full breakout season and maybe some teams out there or all the teams out there
02:41view him and say well we like the potential but i'm not paying for a what if at least not
02:47that much
02:47money um so whether it's you know not meeting his financial demands or saying we're not comfortable
02:54doing anything more than just a one-year prove it uh his market could be lower than we long assumed
03:00well i guess what you would do is you know what you would study if you really liked him and
03:05and
03:05we're was gonna and we're gonna pay him you would look at the film of the games all right let's
03:12let's
03:12go look if i'm a team let's go look at the games where andrews was out and he was the
03:17guy and then
03:18see what we would have second half of 23 pretty damn good there's a story right there's dave casper
03:24and it's something right but ultimately i think the conversation around likely has just been
03:29well man just give him a shot see what he can do and if you're looking for what free agency
03:35really
03:36should be which is more of a slam dunk guarantee at least for guys to go early uh next week
03:41he's far
03:43from that yeah oh yeah i i wouldn't expect him to be off the board on uh you know monday
03:49or tuesday
03:52charlie kohler is another free agent 27 years old not the pass catching threat that likely or andrews
04:00is even though he's had his moments but more of a blocking guy
04:07jess rebeck thinks he uh stays yeah maybe out of necessity because outside of andrews you don't have
04:13any tight ends i mean yeah because really when you look at it josh oliver was a blocking tight end
04:23and he got three years 21 million when he went to minnesota so he got seven a year to be
04:28a blocker
04:29and he was a legit blocker you know and he can bring a little to the past yeah catching equation
04:35whereas the point i'll make it is is kohler's not your dominant blocker i mean when i watched him at
04:42iowa state he could not block you know you know i mean he's big you know i mean he's what
04:49six six
04:50six seven two sixty two sixty five he's he's not a knock you off the ball guy he's a shield
04:55guy
04:56well according to jeff's rebeck the ravens value is blocking okay harley kohler there all right let's get
05:01to the defense draymond jones traded for him 29 years old had seven sacks last year two and a half
05:09with the ravens and you know hey let's not get crazy he wasn't terrell suggs no or bulwer or matthew
05:18judah
05:18for that matter but he tried and you noticed him at times yep but noticed him enough where that you
05:28make him a priority in regards to uh i mean he's part of a pass rush that wasn't all that
05:35great and he
05:36had a half a season in baltimore i mean i like him but i'd still want to see what else
05:42is out there
05:44you know what i mean jeff's rebeck says he gone yeah he goes yeah probably so he'll probably you
05:52know maybe he gets more money than than uh the ravens would want to pay but i thought that he
05:58did a nice
05:58job in the run stuff too i thought he he gave i thought it was a good move you know
06:04for the ravens
06:04you know at the time um and you know what that's that's to me if i'm eric that's a jesse
06:14minter
06:14call when they evaluate them and stuff when they evaluate the free agents you know and they rank
06:19them and everything else and you know i mean he's not going to be the number one guy right in
06:24our
06:24rankings all right so you know so all right let's try to get boom boom boom and if we if
06:30you know
06:30and they may come back to him if they don't get the guys they you know prefer rough estimate on
06:36his uh
06:36market value this is from spot track 10.3 million a year so i mean that's not my reaction to
06:45that was
06:45that's actually somewhat affordable we're talking pass rush contracts but again you're talking about a
06:51guy here who's probably going to be in that five six sack range every year i mean this past season
06:56splitting time between tennessee and baltimore was a career year in a lot of ways but he's still maxed
07:01out at seven and in my opinion just far too quiet in the sack production realm especially for what the
07:07ravens needed out of him after that trade you know he was disrupting vinnie said it he's great against
07:12the run he's good all-around player very balanced i probably the yes tries hard seemed to fit in
07:18really well in the locker room can't say a bad thing about him but he's not that bona fide elite
07:24pass rush or i don't even know if he's gonna have the chance at like an outlier year where he
07:29has 12
07:30or 13 sacks i don't see that i feel like he's gonna be in that five six range what do
07:34they say
07:35like uh the value for away is uh good question and by the way with draymond jones getting back to
07:41him
07:41real quick he had that little burst of games in tennessee where he got most of his sacks
07:46he got his five sacks with them within the span of a couple of weeks so by comparison here same
07:53website spot track 19.3 your uh annual projected value for away who had no sacks when he was in
08:01baltimore and then got seven and a half in la and we'll get into all of that good stuff when
08:05we come
08:06back talk about that very subject kevin all striker call van noise another free agent so 34 years old
08:12david a job up remember raven's got to steal with him only one stealing was david a job
08:17up
08:18you
08:18you
