Trade Number 2: The Rams send Cam Akers to Baltimore

The Ravens are another team that make sense for Akers, as they seemingly always have injuries in their back field. Baltimore is now without J.K. Dobbins for the year, once again, as the former Ohio State Buckeye tore his achilles.

In Dobbins' place, the Ravens will be using a committee featuring the likes of veterans Gus Edwards and Justice Hill, along with rookie Keaton Mitchell. But, if Akers were to come to Baltimore, he'd be in line for carries immediately.

The Ravens have been both good and bad throughout their 2-0 start, but Lamar Jackson has some new weapons to throw to and a now-healthy Mark Andrews. If you add in Baltimore's defense, which is consistently stout, they could end the year as a true Super Bowl contender.

Once more, here, the Rams get a sixth rounder, except it won't come until 2025 because Baltimore doesn't have one in 2024. If the Ravens wanted to ensure they were the highest bidder, they could always throw out a 2024 fifth-round selection.
