While many clubs were interested in drafting former Georgia tight end Brock Bowers, the Las Vegas Raiders were not one of them. Just a year earlier, they selected Michael Mayer with a second-round choice, but their roster needs were far more pressing.
When Las Vegas finally selected him at No. 13, it was unexpected and appeared to take a few teams off guard. After Bowers dropped in the first round, it was previously known that the Los Angeles Rams were prepared to trade up for him. Now, information about another team that also desired to trade up has surfaced. The Indianapolis Colts were attempting to sign the tight end, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
According to Schefter, the Colts showed a strong interest in Brock Bowers during the August 1 episode of “Pat McAfee Show.” “I believe the Colts and the Rams were the two teams that tried to move up in the draft to try and go get Brock Bowers.”
