The Baltimore Ravens received multiple offers for their first-round pick before using it on cornerback Nate Wiggins.

According to a report, the Ravens had eight offers for the No. 30 pick.

Baltimore general manager Eric DeCosta said the team identified Wiggins as a target early in the draft process.

"For us, it was always, 'If Nate [is] there, we [are] going to pick,'" DeCosta said. "In our opinion, [he's] a guy that can be a true shutdown-type corner."

Davante Adams Doesn't Regret Trade From Packers

May 1, 2024 8:54 AM

Things haven't gone as planned for Davante Adams with the Las Vegas Raiders, but the wide receiver doesn't regret the move.

Adams was traded from the Green Bay Packers to the Raiders during the 2022 offseason.

There has been speculation that Adams could be traded again, while Jordan Love has emerged as a potential superstar in Green Bay.

During an appearance on The Rush podcast with Raiders teammate Maxx Crosby, Adams said he "hadn't seen enough" of Love to know what the future held when he left Green Bay but that he's been watching and he's been impressed by what he's seen. 

"In hindsight, like we talked about, the kid is a f---ing baller, man. I'm so happy for him," Adams said. "I haven't had the chance to truly sit down and talk with him, but I want to tell him at some point 'I definitely don't regret changing, but I'm super proud of what you've done. If there was a way I could pull you over here and drag you with me that would have been cool too.' Because, obviously, we saw what he did at the end of the year. I don't regret what I did, but, at the same time, it's definitely you look back on it like 'damn that boy kind of balling right now.'"
