Rams Explored Trading Davante Adams

Sunday, March 15, 12:47 PM

The Los Angeles Rams recently explored the idea of trading superstar wide receiver Davante Adams, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. This rumor follows prominent reporting that indicated the Rams had been looking into acquiring Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown. Such a trade would have given the Rams one of the greatest wide receiver rooms in NFL history, featuring Brown, Adams, and Puka Nacua. However, it likely would not have lasted very long. If the Rams acquired Brown, they would have looked to trade away Adams before his $6 million roster bonus was due on Sunday. Now that Adams' bonus is locked in, the Rams will likely keep the veteran receiver and stay away from Brown. That's consistent with another report from Florio that said the Rams have called off their trade pursuit of the Eagles' superstar. For now, Los Angeles will run back an elite wide receiver tandem of Nacua and Adams, both of whom could be strong WR1 options in fantasy football once again next year.

Darius Slayton Faces Plenty of New Competition

Wednesday, March 18, 6:22 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton briefly entered this offseason as the team's No. 2 receiver with Wan'Dale Robinson departing in free agency. However, the pass-catching room has quickly become crowded after new head coach John Harbaugh brought in his hand-picked class of free agents. The Giants signed Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin III, both of whom had very disappointing 2025 seasons but are candidates for positive regression in a new system in 2026. Specifically, Mooney's style of making plays downfield and winning in coverage makes him a threat to steal plenty of Slayton's snaps and targets. The Giants also brought in tight end Isaiah Likely, pairing him with Theo Johnson, who was already ascending into a larger role. Training camp will offer more insight into what the pecking order looks like in New York, but for now, managers should be at least a little concerned that Slayton could fall behind any combination of Malik Nabers, Mooney, Austin, Likely, and Johnson. He's worth holding in deeper dynasty leagues in case he does end up as Jaxson Dart's No. 2 target, but with such a wide range of outcomes, he can be left on waivers in shallower formats or redraft leagues.
