Three-time Pro Bowl safety Jamal Adams is still looking for a new NFL home, and one NFL analyst believes that the Baltimore Ravens are the best fit for the former first-round pick. Once considered one of the best all-around safeties in the game, Adams is now entering his age-29 season following years of injury and subpar performances in coverage. While he is something of a limited player at this stage in his career, Adams remains a reliable threat against the run game, and Matt Holder of Bleacher Report believes that Baltimore should bring him in.

During this morning’s first Hot Topic, the co-hosts debated Jemele Hill’s remarks to the Los Angeles Times after the former ESPN host said Clark had the same “relatability” as Steph Curry, but added, “We would all be very naive if we didn’t say race and her sexuality played a role in her popularity.” 

Goldberg was quick to take issue with Hill’s...

Dallas, TX

The Dallas Mavericks have been pretty active this offseason. Unlike last summer, they aren’t relying on young players to fortify their roster. Nonetheless, they did add a 2024 NBA Draft prospect. Joining in the French wave, Dallas traded No. 58 pick Ariel Hukporti for No. 51 pick Melvin Ajinça. A cousin of former NBA center Alexis Ajinça, who played for the Mavs for 10 games in 2010-11, the 20-year-old is an offensive-minded small forward with an outstanding build. As he made 35.7 percent of his 3s with Saint-Quentin Basketball last season, he may have a smoother transition to the NBA than 2023 No. 24 pick Olivier Maxence-Prosper.
