Most teams are just a QB away, such is the nature of the NFL. It’s a QB league and if you have a good one you’re a good team the majority of the time.

There are enough good players on the Raiders roster that with a new HC and QB you could have a really quick turnaround. The real problem is actually finding the right HC and QB.

Am I the lone patriots vote. He doesn appear to have a no trade clause. The Patriots were reportedly interested in a number 1 wr. And they have the cap room. The reported asking price of a second round pick (per profootballtalk) is not terrible. The only draw back is that it may force the Drake Maye era to begin sooner rather than later which big picture/long run wise may not be ideal.

Were the 3-13-1 Texans, 4-13 Commanders, or 2-14 Bengals just a QB away?

There is zero chance in hell that Adams would agree to go there.

Just not the right person for them to make that kind of move.

They'd be better suited to wait and then throw a bag at Tee Higgins in free agency.

I will be surprised if a competing team doesn't trade a 2nd for him. He is still at the very worst a top 10 receiver in the league and looks to have at least 2-3 good years left. His game isn't built on speed so he should play well into his 30s.

For a competing team like the Ravens or Bills, he could definitely put them over the top.

Well, either D. Adams is just trolling the Raiders, or Adams is going to become a Baltimore Raven soon.

And to add to this, it not only improves their team but it ensures your competition does NOT get Adams. Do the Ravens want to face the Bills with Adams come playoff time? Even the Jets w/ the Bills in the same division.

It's already a blood bath and it's rare that an in-season trade for a HOF WR is even on the table.

You got it eventually.

Adams is definitely having a blast with this. He’s teased the Jets, Saints, Ravens, and Falcons. And I also think the Cowboys was a team he leaked to the media that he’d be ok playing for.

I’ve always got that part, but thanks for the sanctimony.
