If Victor Wembanyama is only as good as Hakeem Olajuwon or Anthony Davis, he has not met expectations

Brard Brew crew shout out, said he has expectations for We Bin Yama to be one of the best players ever. If Webe Yama is [Hakeem Olajuwon] or Anthony Davis, he has not met expectations. He has to have a career like Kareem, Jordan, LeBron, Shaq, or Duncan.

This is a subjective standard for success, but framing Hakeem Olajuwon as a floor for expectations is an extremely bold take.

While LeBron was injured (foot), the Lakers were swept by Denver in this series.

The Ravens are abandoning their draft-and-develop philosophy because they've drafted poorly lately

The Ravens feel like the team for however long, I mean, pretty much their entire history, it's like what they do is they draft really well. They don't have to do these type of moves. And then they do this move... maybe the Ravens haven't drafted as well recently. So now they do have to join everyone else and be these guys.

Subjective analysis of team building strategy.

The Ravens have a three-to-four-year window with Lamar Jackson to go all in and win a Super Bowl

Are the Ravens basically saying Lamar Jackson, he's 29, he's got, we got like a three, four year window where we're gonna have to go all in here? You're kind of forking the road. Are you trying to keep your draft capital to keep reloading around Lamar Jackson? You're like, 'Hey, let's go win this right now.'

The Ravens' success in this window depends on winning a Super Bowl before Lamar Jackson hits his 30s.

The NFL center market is currently the hottest position market in the world

The center market actually feels like it's the hottest market out there. The Packers signed their center who started seven games signed for 11 million a year. The center market just might be the hottest market in the world.

While 'hottest in the world' is hyperbolic, the sentiment reflects the actual 2026 free agency center market trends.
