Rams five days away from start of ‘MauiCamp'

Yahooa day ago

The NFL is making a return to Hawaii next week, as the Los Angeles Rams are set for their minicamp ('MauiCamp').
The Rams who previously traveled to Hawaii back in 2019 for a NFL Preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys, will hold a 4 day minicamp on the island of Maui starting Monday June 16th.
'It is a really cool opportunity,' said Los Angeles Rams Head Coach, Sean McVay.
While the Rams will be holding on field workouts for the team, they will also be off the field helping out the Maui community.
'You just talk about some of the similarities in what the L.A. community has gone through, what the Maui community has gone through. A chance to be able to, you know, broaden the reach and then, you know, there's going to be a lot of people that are excited to see our players,' said McVay. 'And I think this will be a great chance for us to be able to, you know, bring families, you know, do some fun stuff, to be able to connect. And then also be able to give back to the community. You know, you just have a lot of cool people that have a heart for others.'

Las Vegas Raiders: 3 players who could turn into training camp holdouts, including Jakobi Meyers

Like most NFL teams, the Las Vegas Raiders opened mandatory minicamp this week. While some clubs practiced without key players seeking new deals, the Raiders didn't have that issue. Still, they should work on extensions with a few veterans to avoid holdouts at training camp. Late in May, Las Vegas made AJ Cole the league's highest-paid punter, signing him to a four-year, $15.8 million extension including $11 million in guarantees. As an All-Pro-Pro Bowler in three of the last four seasons, he earned that extension. Advertisement Other extension candidates haven't achieved leaguewide accolades in recent seasons, but they deserve a pay raise based on their position market. Here's a breakdown of three Raiders who could hold out for a new deal if the front office doesn't extend their contract before training camp. Offensive tackle Kolton Miller Credit: Stephen R. Sylvanie-Imagn Images According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Kolton Miller skipped an early portion of the Raiders' offseason program. Yet he's participated in practices through OTAs and attended mandatory minicamp on Tuesday. He told reporters that he wants to stay with the team long term. Last offseason, Miller underwent shoulder surgery and needed time to work his way into form. According to Pro Football Focus, he allowed five sacks in the first two weeks of the regular season but only gave up two more for the remainder of the campaign. Even without any All-Pro or Pro Bowl accolades, Miller is a quality left tackle, and the Raiders should reward him with a new deal. Advertisement Currently the 13th highest-paid left tackle set to make $18 million this year, he could command over $22 million annually with at least $50 million in guarantees. Wide receiver Jakobi Meyers Credit: Stephen R. Sylvanie-Imagn Images After Davante Adams took an escape route out of Las Vegas, Jakobi Meyers took over the lead wideout role to complement rookie tight end Brock Bowers, who led the team in most receiving categories last season. He caught 87 passes for 1,027 yards and four touchdowns. Still the lead playmaker in a relatively young receiver room, Meyers is an underpaid lead wideout. Set to make $11 million this year, he's 29th among wide receivers in annual salary. During OTAs, Meyers chose to keep contract talks between himself and the organization. Advertisement 'Yeah, I want to be here, for sure,' he said to reporters. 'But that's all I could really say on it right now. That's business between us and the top floor. So, I'm just going to hold that one down for now.' Meyers' contract situation should be a priority in Las Vegas. He has no guaranteed money in the final year of his deal. He could command $15-20 million annually following his most productive campaign. Kicker Daniel Carlson Daniel Carlson may celebrate a new deal with fellow special-teams player AJ Cole if the Raiders want to pay their kicker before he enters free agency in 2026. In a contract year, Carlson can force the conversation with a holdout to speed up the process. Advertisement Carlson's conversion rate on field goals has declined since he made 94.3 percent of his attempts in 2020. Despite that, Las Vegas Review-Journal's Vincent Bonsignore believes Carlson could be in line for an extension. In 2024, Carlson converted on 85 percent of his field goals, though four of his six misses were from 50-plus yards. Based on that context, the Raiders may believe that his conversion rate will trend in the right direction with an offense that can move the ball more efficiently than their recent units.

5 best Jaire Alexander landing spots after release from Green Bay Packers

After failing to reach a contract resolution that would have reduced his salary to less than the $16.15 million he's set to make in 2025, the Green Bay Packers are set to release Jaire Alexander. The Packers tried to trade him first, but teams weren't willing to pay Alexander's current rate either. So, now that he's on the open market, the other 31 teams can freely negotiate with the two-time Pro Bowl cornerback at a fair market rate. But which teams are still in need of another starting cornerback? Here's a quick list of five potential landing spots for Alexander. Carolina Panthers Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images The Carolina Panthers are fresh off having the worst defense in NFL history. They've taken steps to improve upon last season, but finding Jaycee Horn a proper running mate would be ideal. Alexander may have just played a total of 14 games in the past two seasons, but if he's healthy, the Panthers could luck into a Pro Bowler.

Jaire Alexander could come in and immediately be the best of the bunch, as long as he stays healthy. Alexander has recorded an interception in seven of eight seasons as a pro, which should give the Raiders a reason to take a chance on him.

Alexander is a perfect 1-for-1 replacement, considering his tendency to create turnovers. Plus, the Dolphins have former Packers defensive coordinator Joe Barry on staff.

The Rams are clearly interested in adding another high-end cornerback, and Alexander can be signed immediately. Related: Want more Rams coverage? Visit Minnesota Vikings Credit: Wm. Glasheen-Imagn Images If Alexander wants to stick it to his former team, what better destination than landing with the Minnesota Vikings? Plus, they have former Packers defensive coordinator Mike Pettine on staff, giving Alexander some immediate flexibility. Alexander would slot in opposite of Byron Murphy, giving the Vikings two Pro Bowl cornerbacks to lead their secondary. Advertisement Related: Want more Vikings coverage? Visit Related Headlines

4 best Jalen Ramsey trade landing spots as he awaits a ‘new chapter'

The Miami Dolphins have been trying to reach a resolution with Jalen Ramsey all offseason. Yet, they could be waiting until after June 1 at this point, because that's when the Dolphins can save $9.9 million by trading him. On Wednesday, Ramsey hinted at a potential trade coming soon, ending an interesting tweet with the caption, 'A new chapter awaits.' Recently, Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer speculated on teams giving up anywhere between a second and a fifth-round pick in exchange for Ramsey, depending on how much salary his next team is willing to pay. Advertisement But which teams are actually in a position to trade for the three-time All-Pro cornerback? Let's look at a few options.

If he's not willing to play on a reduced salary in 2025, those discussions could very well lead to a trade. If so, the Packers will want another high-level playmaker to lead their secondary and Ramsey is their best option.

Rebilas-Imagn Images Odds are, Ramsey will want to play for another Super Bowl contender, and there are few other guaranteed playoff teams than the Kansas City Chiefs. Plus, the Chiefs are still looking for another defensive playmaker after moving on from L'Jarius Sneed. Minnesota Vikings Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Not only are the Minnesota Vikings still looking to replace their top three cornerbacks from their top-five defense from a year ago, they have a natural connection with Kevin O'Connell to Ramsey from their Super Bowl season together. Coach O'Connell has all the information he needs to push GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah to swing a deal for the superstar defender.
