   Hi Ken
   Great show as always on Friday Morning GM. I am not around X anymore, but I always loved our interaction and I will keep my 2 cents here if you don’t mind. Few remarks on this show.
   1 – Chris Moore was the 1st drafted WR resigned. He had his rookie contract (2016-2019) followed by an one year extension on vet min benefit in 2020.
   2 – Bateman extension was definitely team friendly, but not that much. The Ravens had the rights to place a RFA tender on him (and it would be Right of First Refusal that gives an original round pick as compensation if he signs elsewhere, meaning a 1st rd pick) at 3.0M cost. His extension on 12.9M in new money makes this additional year (2026) cost 9.9M, which is not a huge cost, but not a bargain most are seeing. It is a great deal for both, the Ravens gamble a bit (4.5M if decides to cut hm next year) to get the option of an additional year, while Bateman gets some security and the chance to hit the free agency at his prime.
   All the best for you and Vas
