that's got to be a cool feeling it's like you get called down to the principal's office

anthony aver please come down to nick savin this

he's just like yeah he's here for me right how much are you looking forward to a first

career pick in the NFL I think about every day that's how how I think of it in a way.

Rayvians say, they bless me, they pick me.

So, I mean, I'm definitely going to play hard for this organization.

Welcome into the lounge presented by Draft Kings.

The regular season is right around the corner.

The Ravens are in regular season mode.

Training camp is finished. Cuts have been made. The teams are in regular season mode. Training camp is

finished. Cuts have been made. The team is set. Kind of, there will be more changes.

And we have today with us a big piece of the defense, and that is cornerback Anthony Aver.

Yeah. Anthony is somebody who flies under the radar a little bit because it's hard to stand out on the best secondary in the NFL when you got a guy like Marcus Peters, who's a multi-time pro bowler and Marlon Humphrey, who's put himself in the best cornerback group in the league. He is in that conversation of best corners in the league.

And so it's, and then Jimmy Smith Jimmy Smith has been here for a decade.

So it's tough to stand out in the secondary, especially a cornerback.

And Anthony Avery is someone who's waited his turn.

But I think that he is going to get opportunities.

And when he does, he's going to be ready for him. Because this guy is a really talented player.

He's incredibly confident. And I'm excited to see what he does with his time.

So without any further ado, let's go ahead and jump into our interview.

Well, Anthony, thanks for joining us.

I've got to start here.
