NFL News: Davante Adams was on track to be one of the best wide receivers to ever don a Green Bay Packers uniform. However, after the uncertainty of Aaron Rodgers’ future, Davante Adams forced his way out of Green Bay. The Packers obliged and traded him for multiple premium draft picks to the Las Vegas Raiders. If you have been following the Raiders’ situation at all, you’d know that Adams may be having some buyer’s remorse.
The Raiders have since benched, then traded away, Adams’ best friend and the main reason he wanted to join the team, Derek Carr. The team didn’t attempt to trade for Aaron Rodgers. And now their quarterback will be Jimmy Garoppolo for the immediate future. However, if things turn south in 2023 for the Raiders, ESPN posed a question that no team can ignore.
ESPN Expecting Teams To Watch Davante Adams At Trade Deadline

ESPN posed a major queestion for Davante Adams, the Las Vegas Raiders, and the rest of the NFL if their 2023 season doesn’t go as planned:
Adams forced his way out of Green Bay last offseason so he could go to the Raiders and play with his college buddy, Derek Carr. But the Raiders benched Carr late in the 2022 season and released him in February. Adams has spoken publicly about his disappointment over losing Carr, and even about his skepticism regarding the acquisition of Jimmy Garoppolo and the plan that coach Josh McDaniels is putting in place.
It seems pretty clear that Adams, in spite of his reservations, is willing to give McDaniels and Garoppolo a shot. He proved last year that he didn’t need Rodgers to be a top wide receiver, and he surely believes he can perform at the same level with Garoppolo. But things could get ugly in a hurry for the Raiders, who have seen a major overhaul since McDaniels and GM Dave Ziegler got there 17 months ago but don’t appear to be any better. In fact, some might say they appear to be worse than the team that finished the 2021 season on a playoff run under interim coach Rich Bisaccia with Carr as its emotional leader.
Would The Las Vegas Raiders Trade Away Davante Adams?

It would take a significant collapse in order for the Raiders to trade away Davante Adams, and that might not even be enough. The Las Vegas Raiders are just one off-season removed from trading away a first and second round draft pick for the All-Pro wide receiver. At 30 years old, the Raiders feel they can still get 2-3 more premium years out of Davante Adams (at least). Last year the Raiders’ quarterback situation was far from stable and Adams had a stellar season:
- 100 receptions
- 1,516 yards
- 14 touchdowns
- 65 1st downs
- 15.2 yards per reception
- Third consecutive First Team All-Pro selection
- Sixth consecutive Pro Bowl selection
Adams will give it his all this year, but one can’t help but consider a trade possibility if things go south.
