Pass or pursue: NFL Rumors are heating up over LA Rams trading Cam Akers to multiple NFL teams

NFL Rumors: Baltimore Ravens?

For an NFL team to have bonafide interest in adding a strong-willed rusher like Cam Akers, that team will need to have three characteristics:

1. First, that NFL team needs to possess a strong defense. That is necessary to avoid shooting matches, which almost instantly negates the ground game of any NFL team's offense
2. Secondly, that NFL team must boast a strong offensive line that is capable of opening up lanes consistently for running backs.
3. Thirdly, that NFL team must boast a balanced or run centric offensive playbook.

While the name of the modern NFL is the passing game, some teams continue to boast a strong rushing presence. Perhaps one team that has maintained a strong rushing presence despite the NFL trend to focus on a passing-centric playbook is the Baltimore Ravens. And right now, the Ravens are shopping for RB help after losing running back J.K. Dobbins for the season

Is Akers a solid option? At least one NFL analyst thinks so:

I tend to agree. The Ravens are a strong organization that is more than equipped to rein in Akers sometimes-problematic attitude. And their offense is certainly set up to keep feeding the football to running backs. Could the Raven trade for Akers? Perhaps, but we have more to consider.
