In this episode of The Flock Rundown, we discuss NFL combine week and break down why having GMs and agents in the same building accelerates real contract movement… and how that could impact the Ravens immediately.

We also address Eric DeCosta's recent comments about Baltimore "not being big players" in free agency — and why that narrative doesn't hold up. We go year-by-year through every major offseason signing since DeCosta became GM in 2019. The truth? The Ravens have handed out aggressive contracts before. Some missed. One (Derrick Henry) absolutely hit. The pattern tells a bigger story.

On top of that, we analyze the Ravens' current cap situation and why they're positioned to spend more than usual this offseason. Is DeCosta downplaying expectations publicly while preparing to strike behind the scenes? There's reason to believe this could be another calculated smoke screen.

We also clear up the noise around Declan Doyle's comments about OTA and offseason attendance. Some national outlets tried to spin it into a Lamar Jackson storyline — but when you listen to the full context, that narrative falls apart.

This episode isn't about headlines. It's about strategy, leverage, and what Baltimore is actually setting up to do.
