The Green Bay Packers and Baltimore Ravens are both going into the 2025 season expecting to compete for a playoff spot.\u00a0 \u00a0Green Bay is looking to prove they can also compete for a Super Bowl with Jordan Love, while Baltimore is trying to get over that last hump with Lamar Jackson.<\/p>\n

However, the two teams nearly pulled off a huge trade before the 2025 NFL Season.<\/p>\n

Packers-Ravens Just Backed Out Of Massive Trade (Breaking Report)<\/h3>\n
\"Packers-Ravens<\/figure>\n

According to ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler:<\/p>\n

\n

Earlier this week, the\u00a0Baltimore Ravens\u00a0made an interesting move by extending receiver Rashod Bateman to a three-year, $36.75 million deal. This might seem like a nothingburger in isolation, but it\u2019s worth noting here that Bateman just signed an extension last offseason, too, and hadn\u2019t even played a game on his previous deal. In total, his back-to-back extensions combined for the cost of $49.62 million over five years, bringing his average salary up to nearly $10 million from his $6.4 million number on his 2024 extension.<\/p>\n

According to ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler, one reason for this new contract in Baltimore is that Bateman asked the Ravens for an extension this offseason, the team told him no, but then allowed him to search for a suitor who would via trade before ultimately choosing just to pay the receiver. Per Fowler, three teams that showed interest in Bateman when he was on the trade block were the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys,\u00a0New England Patriots\u00a0and\u00a0Green Bay Packers.<\/p>\n

The fact that these were the teams linked to an available receiver isn\u2019t surprising. The Cowboys traded for George Pickens this offseason, the Patriots signed Stefon Diggs to a $63.5 million contract in late March and the Packers ended up drafting two receivers in the top 100 picks of the 2025 draft with Texas\u2019 Matthew Golden (23rd overall) and\u00a0TCU\u2019s Savion Williams (87th overall).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Despite what the Packers have said about just taking the best player available this offseason, they were clearly in the receiver market leading up to the draft. With Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs in contract years in 2025, and Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks following in 2026, the team\u2019s actions haven\u2019t suggested that they\u2019re willing to pony up extension money for their homegrown pass-catchers in an exploding receiver market.<\/p>\n

Bateman recorded career highs of 756 receiving yards and 9 receiving touchdowns in 2024 as a 25-year-old. It\u2019s also worth noting here that at 6\u20191\u201d and 195 pounds, he has the frame that Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has typically looked for, as the\u00a0LaFleur-era Green Bay offenses have prioritized size as the unit\u2019s most important trait.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
