What Odell Beckham Jr. signing means for
Répondre            
 
The Ravens made their first splash move of free agency nearly a month after it first opened.It wasn't signing quarterback Lamar Jackson to a long-term contract extension. Instead, it was to a ma sive one-year deal worth up to $18 million.Beckham spent the 2022 season out of the NFL as he suffered during Super Bowl 56 with the Rams. That said, teams still showed an interest in signing him during that campaign. They just weren't sure he would be healthy enough to contribute, so they weren't willing to give him the type of contract that he coveted.As such, Beckham held out to get that deal, hoping to take advantage of a 2023 free agent cla s that was perceived to be weak at receiver.It still took him a while to get that contract, but now, Beckham will join the Ravens in the hopes of becoming the next Logan Morrison Jersey great veteran receiver addition for the John Harbaugh-coached team.MORE: But just what does the Beckham signing mean for the Ravens, and could it have an impact on the team's strained relationship with Lamar Jackson? Here's what to know about Baltimore's April splash and the ripple effect it could have on the team.That the Ravens signed Beckham wasn't exactly a surprise. The manner in which they did so by nabbing him just a day before he was , who were looking to potentially pair him with Aaron Rodgers may have caught some off-guard, but the veteran receiver will fill a big need for the Ravens.In 2022, the Ravens struggled to get consistent production from their receivers. Rashod Bateman looked good while playing just six games due to injury, but ultimately, none of Baltimore's wide receivers totaled more than 48 catches, 458 receiving yards or three touchdowns during the season.And the team's top receiver Demarcus Robinson only joined the roster after being cut by the Raiders on eve of the season.Below is a look at the team's top receiver stats from 2022RazzlayerGamesReceptionsYardsTDsDemarcus Robinson17484582Devin Duvernay14374073Rashod Bateman6152852DeSean Jackson791530Sammy Watkins331190The Ravens were still able to field what was, at times, a quality pa sing attack. That was largely thanks to tight end Mark Andrews.Still, it was clear Bert Blyleven Jersey that Baltimore needed both more depth and talent at the receiver position to field a more consistent offense. After all, new offensive coordinator relies far more on the receiver position than did the scheme of former offensive coordinator Greg Roman.Beckham will check both boxes in terms of proven production and upside. As such, he should still have a chance to be a quality starter so long as his second ACL tear didn't sap him of too much athleticism.Signing Beckham may be a bit of a gamble because of that injury history, but the Ravens aren't risking anything long-term by signing him to a one-year deal. Sure, they are paying him a lot in 2023, but if things don't pan out, they can move on from him with ease during the 2024 NFL offseason.Beckham's presence also won't preclude the Ravens from adding another receiver to their offense in the 2023 NFL Draft. They can still add young talent to the receiver room as both insurance behind Beckham and a potential future replacement for him should he leave after his one-year deal expires.MORE: Of course, there is an added benefit for the Ravens in signing Beckham. It may be an olive branch of sorts to Jackson after a rocky offseason between the two parties.Jackson and the Ravens have continued their two-year dance of contract negotiations into the 2023 offseason. This has resulted in the Ravens in the hopes that a third party could aid in negotiations between the two as well as Jackson asking for a trade.At this point, the two sides remain in a stalemate, but it does seem like the Beckham signing pleased Jackson.Jackson took to Instagram on Sunday to post a picture of him FaceTiming Robbie Grossman Jersey Beckham. It's unclear whether that photo was taken on Sunday or earlier, but the lightning bolt and rocketship emojis used in the post seem to indicate that the quarterback is a fan of the signing.That would line up with what is reporting. She tweeted that one factor in the Ravens' pursuit of Beckham was that they were looking to "help to square things with Lamar Jackson" amid their stand-off.Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti has been in frequent communication with Odell Beckham Jr, pitching him on the idea of coming to Baltimore, the support he would have with the team and the nece sity of helping to square things with Lamar Jackson as well. Source confirms 1y up 18M. JosinaAnderson (@JosinaAnderson) How would Beckham's signing achieve that? Well, for one, Jackson will have another potential starting-caliber receiver at his disposal.Secondly, it would appear that Beckham and Jackson have a solid relationship. reports that the duo had discu sed the po sibility of Rod Carew Jersey teaming up and winning a Super Bowl with the Ravens at times during the 2023 offseason.Lamar Jackson and Odell Beckham Jr. have had multiple conversations during OBJs free agency about teaming up together and winning a Super Bowl with the , according to sources familiar with the situation.Theres still busine s to handle with Lamar but this is a Jordan Schultz (@Schultz_Report) That the two reportedly referenced a pairing with the Ravens is a sign that Jackson still wants to be in Baltimore even despite his trade request. Steve Bisciotti and the team's front office still have some work to do to make that happen, but the Beckham signing should buy them some goodwill as Jackson and the Ravens look to get past their guaranteed money impa se.MORE: Speaking of contracts, it's also worth noting that the structure of Beckham's deal is favorable to the Ravens. He can make up to $18 million on the one-year pact but its base value is $15 million.Additionally, the Ravens have added several void years seasons during which the player is not technically under contract with the team but comes with a salary cap hit to the contract to mitigate its overall salary Jorge Polanco Jersey cap impact in 2023. As such, Beckham will come with a cap hit of just under $4 million in 2023.Below is a look at the terms of his one-year deal with the Ravens.YearBase salarySigning bonusCap hitDead cap2023$1,165,000$2,767,000$3,932,000$15,000,0002024*$2,767,000$11,068,000$11,068,0002025*$2,767,000$2,767,0002026*$2,767,000$2,767,0002027*$2,767,000$2,767,000*.MORE: Beckham figures to be the Ravens' No. 2 receiver at this point in the 2023 NFL offseason. That said, he could be bumped down to the No. 3 job if Baltimore spends its first-round draft pick on a receiver like Jordan Addison, Zay Flowers, Quentin Johnston or Jaxon Smith-Njigba.Below is a look at how the Ravens' receiver depth chart looks in wake of the Beckham signing.RankPlayer1Rashod Bateman2Odell Beckham Jr.3Nelson Agholor4Devin Duvernay5James Proche6Tylan Wallace7Mike Thomas8Andy Isabella9Shemar BridgesAgain, this depth chart may not yet be complete in its entirety; but it still certainly looks better than the group the Ravens trotted out for Jackson and Tyler Huntley during the 2023 NFL offseason
