A team like the Bills or Jets would have gave up a 1st imo. Now he’s probably worth a 2nd and 6th topps… which ends up being a terrible investment for us. He’s almost 32 so a team is gonna get a year and a half of elite production at most and they know that. But yes… we should trade him. Not yet. Let’s see how bad we are after the next two games. Where does he end up? Saw a rumor Philadelphia, but I really really doubt it. Jets are always going to be a possibility. Ditto Bills. I'd love to see him with Stafford and McVay, but they seem rudderless right now. Darkhorse the Vikings maybe? They're clearly far more competitive than anticipated. Jefferson + Addison + Adams would be absolutely nasty to contend with if they can coexist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly a SB Contender though so I don't think Adams will go for it... but with Adams they probably win the East and make the Divisional Round (doubt they make the Conf Championship with that secondary). Daniels looks like the real deal and all they have is McLaurin. McLaurin is a WR1, but the rest of their WR's are WR4's at best, really really bad WR group. I certainly wouldn't rule them out. The NFCE is so hard to figure out right now. Adams couldn't help the Cowboy curse on his best day, but Adams on any of the other 3 make them a favorite for the division.

Totty Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 Yeah. We ain't doing anything. Garner as much draft capital to go get a QB in the draft and pair him with a competent OC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted September 28 Author Share Posted September 28 Does anyone know how it would work financially? The Bills are rolling and he'd put them over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on what they'd offer, I'd eat enough of the cap space and restructure whatever needs to be done to make it work. They have a loaded roster with very few holes. The Bills may actually cough up a 1st since it would almost assuredly be somewhere between pick 29 and 32, essentially a glorified 2nd rounder as far as they'd be concerned. Then again, I've been told by credible sources that the Vikings have no holes whatsoever, so they may cough up a 1st too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that it makes sense for Minny, they already have a ton of weapons in the passing game. Cowboys desperately need another weapon too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbsk Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 (edited) No we shouldn’t trade him imho. He’s worth more to us than he would garner in a trade. He would be immeasurably helpful to a rookie QB which I think everyone wants to do. We could probably get a 2nd rounder for him and save a pile of cap space but who trusts us to draft a bona fide replacement? We could end up trading him for Jimmy Garoppolo and Tyree Wilson for example 😂 I couldn’t care less if he wants ‘a ring’, all players do don’t they? He’s playing for his childhood team and earning tens of millions, a literal dream for 99% of us. I also think his style of play which doesn’t rely on being bigger, faster, stronger but on being smart, bring a great route technician and nuance will last really well and he’ll be a top receiver for a few more years albeit with maybe the deep threat diminishing. Because he’s such a great technician I think he’d be a great influence in younger receivers we’d bring in too and cornerbacks going against him. I think we’re underestimating his impact honestly. Obviously if we had someone offer a crazy amount then you’d bite but I don’t think that would be the case. Edited September 28 by Darbsk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaisinBran Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I'm not trading him unless I get a 1st round pick. If someone wants him then make them offer what Adams is worth. Don't just trade him away because we want to... trade him if someone is asking for him. If we trade him away for a mid round pick we'd be idiots. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidersedge Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I would 100% trade him, we're not going anywhere. Raiders offense will need a complete rebuild in the off-season. New OC, QB,RB, OL and multiple WRs. We need more picks for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
