This show covers the biggest news cycle the show has ever seen. Hours before the draft started reports broke that the Ravens and their franchise QB Lamar Jackson finally agreed to contract terms. Then they drafted a class of players that leaves a lot to talk about. After the draft we added a few interesting UDFAs and acquired Rock Ya Sin to compete for the CB2 role. What a week!
The Ravens went on to win their 16th consecutive preseason game against the Eagles. In a surprising move not to start most starters in what is typically seen as the dress rehersal, the ReCAP crew decided to weave their takeaways from the game into a discussion about the 53 man roster that has to be decided by Saturday at 4pm. The show ends discussing other NFL news, mostly surrounding the hilarious Antonio Brown situation.
The Ravens drafted a class this year that almost everyone is saying was great, but how great was it? We break down all the picks as well as the surprising turn of events that landed the Ravens a second 1st round pick for the second year in a row.

This was one of my favorite Marshal Yanda plays. Turned a possible third-and-1 from the 36 into a first down to set up Justin Tucker's game-winning field goal moments later in the "Mile High Miracle" game. #Ravenspic.twitter.com/r9fj2FQZsd
