Should the Ravens have interest in trading for Raiders WR Davante Adams?

Davante Adams has requested a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders, and the Baltimore Ravens should have an interest in acquring the wide receiver

The Ravens are a run-first team and have a hard enough time navigating a downfield passing attack, but they have the NFL’s top front office and are constantly doing due diligence on players who can improve the roster.

Ian Rapoport is reporting that Davante Adams wants out of Las Vegas, and a Baltimore team that’s 2-2 and a Super Bowl contender could make the list of destinations.

According to Over The Cap, the Ravens currently have over $4 million in available salary cap space.

Baltimore got an up-close look at Adams in a Week 2 loss to the Raiders, as the star wide receiver went for 110 yards and one touchdown on nine catches and 12 targets.

Adams previously praised Lamar Jackson and would upgrade an already solid Ravens passing attack. Adams signed a five-year, $140 million contract with the Raiders in 2022 following a trade from the Packers.

This 2024 season is the final year of guaranteed money ($16.8M), and he’s carry a $25 million cap hit this year, along with a $44 million cap hit in 2025 and a $45 million cap hit in 2026, the final year of his deal.
