A key Baltimore Ravens coach was spotted at a store offensive line prospects pro day ahead of the 2026 NFL drafts and the speculation has begun.
You are Lockdown Ravens.
Your daily Baltimore Ravens podcast.
Part of the Lockdown Podcast Network.
Your team every day.
You are Lockdown Ravens.
I'm your host Kevin Ostryker here with you on the Lockdown Podcast Network.
Your team every day.
And now the number one sports podcast network on today's show.
The Ravens have been a little quiet over these last couple of days of for agency at least relative to what they were over the first couple of days.
So we'll dive into if that's going to stick or if they're going to get a little more aggressive again.
We'll also dive into the Ravens losing another key for agent this time to a division rival.
We're going to start off here with a key Ravens coach being spotted at a star offensive line prospects pro day and speculation beginning based off of that.
Everyone will be happy with the name.
It's Vanguio wanted a Penn State pro day.
The Wayne Ledford was out there.
There is picture proof.
There is reporter proof.
You know, just rebate reporting it where the Wayne Ledford was out there.
And this to me is awesome because obviously Vanguio wanted out there at the Penn State pro day doing his thing.
And he's a guy that has been heavily mocked to the Ravens at pick 14.
And I think that was kind of a bummer for some people when the Ravens traded those two first round picks away or Max Crosby.
It was, man, what that means, not going to have the chance to take Vanguio wanted who I think a lot of people really like in Baltimore.
That's rebate reporting that according to his colleagues act Jackson.
The Wayne Ledford is amongst those in attendance for the Penn State pro day.
And Vanguio wanted has been connected to the Ravens throughout the pre draft process.
And then there was photo proof.
He was helping out with the pro day.
And he actually was assisting with individual drills or the offensive line and apparently according here to KMAX sports who put out this video of the Wayne Ledford and Vanguio wanted and all this stuff.
He said that you want a and Ledford have talked a lot.
So intriguing.
I like that.
I think you want it would be an amazing pick.
You can slot him right in at right guard.
And he's someone that I think a lot of people just around the league feel like whoever gets Vanguio wanted is going to get just a really solid offensive line starter.
You can plug and play him.
He's NFL ready.
I think that there are a couple of other guys that teams might take over him on the offensive line.
But I think that he will be available at pick 14.
I mean, I just haven't feeling he will be there.
And I think that the Ravens should take him.
He has a super broad frame and he's super physical as well.
Which I think the Ravens again, you do like that where he has a lot of power within his core.
He has control of his body really well.
He has good pop on the punches.
You can see him just kind of hit really hard with those.
And he's able to hold off power really, really well where we saw a guy just get pulled over at times on the Ravens offensive line.
And it was just it felt like the Ravens are getting bullied.
Yawane doesn't really let that happen to him, which I think is really good.
I think the thing that most people are concerned with with Yawane is some of the athleticism where you know he's not the quickest in terms of his lateral.
Movements and you know the range sometimes isn't there for him.
The foodily sometimes can get him and stunts can be a bit of an issue for him at times when there's a guy crossing over his face.
That has been a bit of a problem.
And sometimes you know with the power he has no issue, but sometimes with the twitchy guys on the interior who use more finesse that can sometimes give him problems.
But I think that a lot of that honestly is correctable with good coaching and hey, guess what Ravens have a pretty good align coach in the building now with the Wayne ledford.
And we heard from Eric Acosta that the Wayne ledford has been very influential in terms of some of these offensive linemen.
You know, John Simpson was a guy that ledford signed off on obviously to want to go in and followed him over from Atlanta.
So this has been a process that the Wayne ledford.
As far as I can tell him what we've heard has been very involved with.
And so him developing a little bit of a relationship with Yohane here at the Penn State pro day.
I think that's really, really cool in my opinion.
So look, the speculation only grows with this here with Yohane in Baltimore.
I think a lot of people really want him on the team, which in my opinion, like I think it'd be a home run.
You know, it depends on the board falls obviously and what would happen.
You know, there are still a lot of people myself included holding out hope that Ruben Bain could fall out of 14.
I do not think it's going to happen.
But I guess I said the same thing last time with Kyle Hamilton.
And there you go.
But he's somebody that.
I think the Ravens will strongly consider taking at 14, especially if they don't really invest in their offensive line of bunch more over the course of the next couple of weeks leading up to the draft.
Because again, it's, it's quickly approaching.
It's about five weeks away.
I think five weeks of the day here at this point.
So, you know, you have a lot of opportunities.
If you're Baltimore, there are still veteran guards available that you could sign.
But you've already signed three veterans.
I don't know.
I feel like you should add one or two more.
But where would that come?
Would that be a center?
You know, we cushionberry still available.
I'm not sure because John Simpson.
I think it's going to be your starting left guard.
And if you roll out a lineup.
Of let's say Ronnie Stanley Simpson.
I don't know who's going to be at center, Bullock or Pinter at this point.
I guess Yawanna and Rosengarden center leaves a lot to be desired.
But I do think you get improved guard play.
And I think Simpson.
I mean, there's the jury still out.
I guess in terms of like how good he can be in this Ravens offense.
Again, I mean, again, he outperformed his contract the first time he was in Baltimore.
But again, he still had some issues with penalties and whatnot.
I think it will be better than what more he's gave you.
But I think the upgrade from Fallele to Yawanna, if that happens,
would just be so incredible.
It will be unbelievable.
And you have to invest to protect Lamar Jackson.
We know that, right?
Where right now there's just not a lot of investment.
If I'm not mistaken, I think the Ravens are last in offensive line spending or just money right now.
I think that is correct.
So, you know, that's something.
They're towards the bottom of the league at the very least.
So, you know, you have Ronnie Stanley on his deal.
But then, you know, it's Simpson with his 10 million dollars per season.
But then, you know, it's a bunch of minimums, Rosengarns on his rookie deal.
Like, you know, I have a lot of money invested there.
You opted to not pay lender bomb with the Raiders gave lender bomb,
which I think was too much.
But even still that money, some of it needs to be reinvested into your mind.
You know, I don't think that you can justify even if it is with solid young players.
Like, if it's Yawanna out there, that's cool.
But I think you have to, again, invest in a veteran center then at that point.
If you're going to put Yawanna on the line, who I do think is anything already.
I think you had to invest in a vet center.
But Yawanna is really intriguing as I keep saying that's the word of the day here.
It is intriguing.
I think he's just the obvious safe pick to me.
Like, you know, you can get to cute with certain guys.
Take a swing on upside with certain guys.
I think that Yawanna is really good.
And there's actually a clip of him lining up at wide receiver and then running all the way across the field in just destroying.
I think this was against UCLA UCLA linebacker edge guy, whoever it was.
He's someone that you can get a little creative with if you want to as well.
So I think that there will be a little bit of interest, I would say in maybe like the top 10 ish range.
And honestly, maybe you could get away with trading back, depending on how the board ends up falling.
And I'm at 14 and there's not like a Ruben Bay into this fall into you at 14.
I think Yawanna is a pretty obvious pick.
And I think that the consensus on him might be a little lower than 14 where I think some people might expect him to drop into the teams, maybe the very early 20s.
But look, that's kind of what the draft is right where if you fall love with the guy and you're not picking again for 32 picks.
Unless you plan to trade up pretty relatively quickly for the guy who you pass up on.
You probably need to reach for that guy and I say reach.
I'm going to put up the quotes for reach because I don't think it would be a reach.
I'm higher on Yawanna.
I get the athleticism concerns, but again, I don't think that's that big of a deal because he's just he's a solid NFL player.
You can tell like he's a solid NFL player.
And I think after you take him if it is the case at 14, it opens your draft board up even more to take other guys.
Maybe it's a wider receiver. Maybe it's a corner.
Maybe it's another edge guy. Maybe it's an interior defensive lineman.
Put you essentially pecked off a box.
You compare him with maybe a younger rookie center that is NFL ready as well.
I'm open to that possibility as long as that guy is ready to play week one.
But I would still prefer them if it can be Yawanna and another veteran is there.
I guess last two additions on the offensive line because again, I think that you can play cars and Vincent is a backup.
Emory Jones can be a backup for you in this case is kind of a swing guy.
You have other guard center versatility and some other versatility on your line.
I think Yawanna would be a home run pick for this Ravens team.
And Dwayne led for an earliest that was in a little rapport here.
So I'm excited.
I can't wait for the draft again. I was kind of bummed.
I mean, I love the fact that Max Crosby has come to Baltimore when he was,
but I was about to like, man, I'm not going to be able to talk about the draft for the next two night ones.
But here we are back with pick 14 and the Ravens have a real chance here to get an instant impact player.
It one of their biggest positions in need on the offensive line cut on the second part of the show.
We will be diving into Ravens losing another free agent will kind of go over how the Ravens off season has looked so far.
Some of their losses. And of course, what it means for this Ravens team stay tuned putting up on the show.

All right, let's talk about the Ravens losing another free agent it as the long list of lost for agents Thailand Wallace.
It's officially gone. I saw there was some like thing that people thought happened where he went to the jets at some point early in the off season.
That was fake that never happened.
And while it's officially now has gone to the Cleveland Browns, he leaves for a division rival.
He reunites with Todd Munkin over there in Cleveland.
It's a one year deal for a Thailand Wallace and I'm going to miss Thailand.
You know, Thailand was just he was a hard worker.
He was someone that kind of he did what he was asked didn't get a ton of opportunities, but when he was called upon.
I thought, you know, he stepped up and you know people call him, you know, the left sideline.
It was his his home was down that left sideline where he had that incredible part return for touchdown to win the game against the Los Angeles Rams and overtime.
He also had that incredible touchdown down the left sideline against the Bengals in that prime time game where he like tiptoe down at his three Bengals couldn't push him out of bounds.
He was a guy that you just like you just liked him.
I mean, I liked him and I feel like a lot of people were pretty bummed with this.
Again, it adds to a pretty long list of Ravens for agents who have since departed Baltimore.
I did a little updated Ravens 2026 for agency tracker that I put out there on social media, which you can follow me on social media.
By the way, Twitter Instagram tick tock the whole nine yards casher 34, but I did a tracker where essentially now the Ravens for agent losses are.
Apparently, Linda bomb, they are likely brother caller, heat and Mitchell, Raymond Jones, patch of record, Jordan, stout, or Darius Washington, Lohi Gilman, Hannah Wallace, Jake Hummel and David a job.
So a lot of guys is a lot of talented guys, you know, I if you would told me before the off season started before for agency started that the Ravens would lose all of those guys.
I would probably say no way. I know they're going to probably lose a lot of guys, but no way it's that list the guys.
It is. I mean, it's a lot. They've only resigned to do be a woozy and Tyler Huntley at the time of the supporting only two guys coming back from their roster from last season in the resigning category.
This was expected for me. They were going to lose a lot of guys like I just said.
And the reason being is because again, when you coaching staffs come in, this is kind of the name of the game. And again, Baltimore hasn't had this happened in 18 years.
So it's been a while. But, you know, there are just some guys who were John Horball guys and Todd Munkin guys and Zach War guys, et cetera, et cetera.
And they're not guys that Jesse mentor wants or that when the oil wants or weaver wants, et cetera, et cetera.
So while there's still continuity in terms of air to Costa and some of the other coaches in Baltimore, mentor and his staff are going to want to put their twist on things.
And that's okay. Right. It's going to be new systems things that are going to be figured out.
And sometimes like, for example, patch of record, here's doesn't fit what you want to do. Right. And it is what it is.
But at other points, you just want to bring in your own guys. Like again, a guy like Javon Gwynn follows.
He follows Wayne Ledford from Atlanta. And you get Durham's might who follows that the oil from Chicago. Like there are just different guys that certain coaching staffs want.
Now, they definitely did want some of these guys back. Like obviously there at the cost of mention they want to linder bomb back.
But you know, there are other guys. They just didn't want right like they non tender to keep Mitchell.
They didn't want them or maybe just they thought the price was too high. I don't know what that deal was.
You know, likely wasn't coming back. So it depends on situations.
But I'm not going to share code it and say all the ravens didn't lose anybody important. I mean, they did they lost a lot of good players.
But it's now up there to Costa and this team to replace these guys. And for a guy like Tyler Wallace, who was not going to necessarily low your way in terms of.
Oh, wow, he was in a thousand yard wide receiver. And he had 15 touchdowns every single season. No, I mean, he didn't get a ton of opportunities in the receiving department.
I mean, over the course of his five years with the Ravens, he only had 22 catches. I mean, that was it. His career high in a season in catches was 11 on 12 targets.
2024. And I think that he deserved more of an opportunity, but he wasn't given one. I think that he's just he's a greedy player. You know, he's he's someone that goes to work doesn't mess around.
And he's reliable. But I think in Cleveland, there are probably going to be more opportunities for him under Todd Monkin, just because of the fact that Cleveland's wide receiver position doesn't really have a ton right now.
I think that while Thailand really established himself on special teams as a guy that can make an impact and he probably will do that in Cleveland, I think there's going to be a big offensive role for Thailand.
And so I'm not sure if Baltimore tried to bring him back and it was kind of like, oh, there's not going to be an opportunity for me or whatnot, but I am going to miss Thailand.
I think I think he did a good job as a Raven and again, he wasn't this receiver that was going to blow you away at all those number categories, but I think he has impact went far beyond the box score with the Ravens as to some of these other guys as well, right.
You know, even though I didn't really love the way low he got him and played for the Ravens last season, his impact went beyond that because of the fact he was he was freeing up Kyle Hamilton to move around like that impact is not going to be measured in box score categories, right.
So there are just certain things you can't measure through stats. And I think Thailand is one of those players that you can't measure his full impact on this team.
Of course, now it's up to the Ravens to, you know, get a guy in the building, whether it's bringing back the Andre Hopkins, drafting a work, you bring in another veteran just finding other guys that can contribute on special teams to make an impact to that position.
And I'm not saying the Andre Hopkins is going to contribute on special teams, but if it's not going to be a wide receiver contributing on a special team, you got to find somebody else in a different position that's going to do that.
You know, we're de hop. He's just a wide receiver. That's it. No other special teams obligations for him, but with Thailand and his versatility.
Well, you already have four guys on your roster and I'm assuming you're going to keep six wide houses. I've talked about and I've talked about for years here on this show.
So if the Andre Hopkins is obviously not going to do that and you bring him back or another veteran receiver is not going to do that.
Well, and he got to find someone else to will. And is that a linebacker? Is that a safety? Is that a corner?
Got to find that impact. So again, Thailand's not a lost is going to define whether the Ravens winner lose a Super Bowl. I think he can be replaced.
But it's still like all these guys when you kind of laid out and that like list format, you're like, man, you know, I do they lost some guys, but that's a lot.
And that's a lot of guys that I honestly expecting to bring back, you know, like I didn't expect likely to come back.
I didn't expect record to come back. I was kind of out on Gilman, but like, there were a lot of guys on that list that they lost it. I'm like, huh, man, I thought they're going to bring that guy back.
So I mean, they've added Trandrickson, John Simpson, Alan Hawkins, Thurms, Mike, Penny, Pinter, and Giovanna Gwen. But that that lost list, you know, there are still a couple of guys to be added to it because they still have some pending free agents.
So I'm going to the final part of the show. We'll talk about it with the Ravens. We'll stay quiet as they have over these last couple of days or if their aggressiveness will pick back up as again, the draft quickly approaches. So stay tuned. Put it coming up on lockdown Ravens.
First, the show was brought to you by five hour energy. Welcome to the five hour energy flavor draft with 18 different flavors to choose from, including new options like confetti craze, fruity rainbow or cotton candy.
There's something for everyone. The board is set the flavors already. I've got my number one pick for the five hour energy flavor draft. And for me, my number one pick. It has to be cherry because he get that bright punchy taste and it's really smooth and easy to recognize as well.
But my sleeper pick. It is confetti craze because he get the notes of vanilla frosting and sugary sprinkles and it's really smooth and has that dessert like taste profile, which I think is awesome five hour energy shots give you boost was zero sugar and five hour energy has a lot of upcoming flavor innovations plans.
And for me, I love to see a starfruit flavor get made of five hour energy because I love starfruit. And I think that'd be really cool. A five hour energy or to do that.
Find your new favorite flavor of five hour energy shots available all mine at five hour energy.com or Amazon.

Continuing on locked on Ravens Kevin, our striker still here with you on this Thursday edition of the show. Thanks again for being here and making locked on Ravens a part of your day and your first listen each and every single day.

And we have such amazing communities here on locked on Ravens in video form.
We are less than 70 subscribers away from 20,000 subscribers has been unbelievable the growth in video form and 20,000 is a huge milestone for me.
So it's going to be awesome when we hit that and I can't thank everybody enough for the support and video form and also an audio form. I can't thank everybody here for the support there as well where we're continuing to grow every single day in audio form. I think we're fully back on the audio side too.
We had that we're going to go difficulty week last week with the Apple podcast. So again, I apologize for that. That was a whole Apple issue that impacted many shows across the world. And this one, unfortunately, happened to be a part of that, but I think we're back. So we have an awesome video community and awesome audio community and a bunch of other communities as well.
Well, let's dive into the Ravens being quiet. Again, it's been relatively quiet for Baltimore over these last couple of days. And again, part of it probably just feels like they were so active.
Really just with the Crosby thing and then them back and out getting Hendrix in and they were like the focal storyline of for agency and like the first essentially week of the off season period here from that Friday when they acquired Crosby to when the whole situation.
Kind of died down, but not really is still being talked about today. The Ravens have been the focal point of the off season right now, which is crazy. Like it is not usually like this. So maybe these last couple of days are not having a ton happen.
Kind of just feel like, man, well, hey, what happened all that raising this was happening over the first couple of days, but it has been relatively quiet. Again, they signed any pinter and outside of that, not really a ton has happened. I mean, again, we're only a week and a couple days into the start here of this
period. There are still plenty of options available for the Ravens. I don't think they're going to necessarily break the bank for anybody anymore. There are still certain options that are available in terms of like top fridges. And I'll just pull up the list of fridges right now just so we can have a bit of an idea as to, you know, what's going on because even though there aren't like many top fridges available.
Well, there are still some guys are going to demand some decent money. You know, I feel like a guy like Jawan Jennings will potentially Debo Samuel, what is he going to demand. It's more like wider receivers right now, in my opinion, that are going to demand bigger contracts. I'm not necessarily sure anybody else is going to like be super, super, I want $15 million per season.
You know, I'm curious to see what a tirey killer is to find bigs gets on the open market at this point, maybe Taylor Decker, there are a couple of different options. But for Baltimore, again, I don't expect them to go after that big time free agent because I just don't think there are enough that are worth it for Baltimore right now, but some of those smaller medium type for agents.
I think that's where Baltimore is going to try to make some moves. One of those being David and Joku, who they had in for a visit earlier in the week. And again, made it by the time.
Well, listen to this, they have signed him, which I am hoping he has projected on split track at about a two year 20 million dollar contract. So about 10 million per season, I would definitely pay that for him. I think you're looking at maybe some of the veteran defensive Wyman DJ reader, I think would be awesome in Baltimore.
This Campbell, I think would be really good. You can maybe look for because they have their safety, maybe.
Well, I guess they resigned to Louisiana. So do they need another corn? I feel like I'm going to draft. I feel like they're going to draft a corner, probably a bit earlier than some people think in this draft.
If it's a one A at 14, I wouldn't be shocked to take corner on day two. That's just how they operate. And we know Marlon's career in Baltimore is probably coming to an end soon. So we can't have to see how that works.
Other than that, though, I mean, a Wednesday is on a one year deal. You know, we're still kind of waiting for TJ Tampa. I hope it gets a bigger opportunity this season. And you know, Nate Wiggins is hopefully your start that position for the next 10 seasons. But you do need some other guys in that position longer term.
I think corner will maybe surprise some people is to when that actually gets taken. So I'm not sure if that's going to be a free agent type deal. I feel like they're going to sign a vet wide receiver again. If you give the Andre Hopkins, the deal that.
He's browns has gotten Philly. I'm cool with that. We actually just talked about Marcus Brown on lock down Ravens PM about him, hinting at almost near reunion that he and the Ravens had, which is interesting. So if you want to check that out, be sure to go do so.
Again, like the cushion Berry makes a lot of sense for me in the center position, even though they signed Danny Pinter and maybe that's who they go with the center position as a vet.
But I think cushion Berry despite the injury stuff to me, he's 28 years old. I don't think he's going to cost a ton. And I think he'd be an upgrade. I mean, not over Linderbaum, obviously, but an upgrade over what you have on your roster right now. And honestly, if you tell me like this line is going to be Stanley Simpson, cushion Berry, you want a and Rosen Garden, you can sign me up like like where, where do I sign for that sign me up for that line. I'm totally on board with that. But I mean, cushion bears really the only center left. I mean, they missed out on some centers. It's pretty disappointing.
And, you know, other than that, it'd be like the last gal who did Glasgow were tire actually Graham Glasgow from the giant or from excuse me the lions. No, he didn't, I guess, no, they cut him. I think they cut him. Yeah. So I mean, he potentially would would be an option. Maybe he maybe could be an option who, I mean, he has a center guard versatility too. I would have probably preferred him to Pinter, but I guess it is what it is at this point.
So for the Ravens, again, I don't expect them to be super aggressive here over the next month. I do expect them to sign some veterans. I am projecting them to sign David and Joku. I think that'd be a great move form. And if that does happen, we'll have an instant reaction show on that. And I'd be very excited. So I think it's going to be more of those moves, maybe one, two, potentially three of those vets coming in. But then as Eric Acosta said, I mean, this is a draft and develop team. And I think that's where they're going to try to make their bread and butter here.
Of having 11 picks, I think they should only have nine. I think they should make their draft capital work for them. I don't think 11 rookies make this roster, despite all the losses they've had.
Because you also have the factor and other guys they sign on draft agent. So 11 draft picks, I guess I should say not rookies 11 draft picks. That's going to be tough for me. But you still need vets. You still need proven guys. And I think that we will see a couple of those and things pick back up maybe a little bit. But, you know, again, I don't think the Ravens are going to be like signing a guy every single day.
