Davante Adams traded?

[Bretsky]

Three to four more years with AROD wouldn't landed Adams in the HOF

I'm not sure he gets the inflated stats in Oakland. Grass isn't always greener....aka...Greg Jennings.

Then again, I think this was about Adams getting love and incredibly wealthy

[Joemailman]

Meh, I think they likely have known this was coming for awhile. Man, what a crappy thing. I am guessing he just wants to be out west now that he has made his money and has a kid with another one the way. I can’t make any sense of it beyond that, which fair enough. At least they got something for him.

I agree. What I meant was it's too bad they couldn't get this deal done sooner so they would have had the cap room to go after Robinson if they wanted to.

I'm more interested in the compensation. I've heard a 1st and a 2nd. Then I've heard a 1st and potentially more picks and a player. Guess we wait and see.

NFL Network reported it's a confirmed 1st and 2nd and that's it

Think they can flip that R1 for DK?

DK Metcalf

That would be a funny deal; TANK gets his wish in the end

March 4: Reports that Davante Adams has bought house in Las Vegas
March 8: Packers place franchise tag on Adams
March 15: Adams says he won't play under franchise tag
Match 17: Packers trade Adams to Las Vegas

Any chance Raiders were tampering? Did they tell Adams to refuse to work out a deal with Packers, and they'll work out a trade?

DK Metcalf

Hahahahahahaha

Welp, what?

Sometimes, just 'welp'.

Maybe tampering but everyone does it. Don’t hate the player, hate the game. There was a rando on Twitter who said last week that they did something with Adams agent or something and it was a done deal to be announced next Thur - which was today. So that’s a little unusual and maybe a lucky guess but the rando was oddly specific and made me think maybe it was accurate - turns out it was.

Honestly I don’t mind. R1 and R2 + Julio > Adams IMO. Maybe I am having dreams of a Peppers type performance for Hulio.

SCORE!

We don't commit bank money to a WR on the wrong side of 30, we hopefully now force Rodgers from his tunnel vision to Davante to instead spread the ball around and we get two top 60 picks. Add to that the money we cleared to be able to tag Davante and we have the ability to fortify the WR department and possibly resign Douglas or Tonyan or anybody else Gutes thinks is worthy.

I am ecstatic about this. Bring on the draft as we have two #1's, 2 #2's, a 3rd and 2 #4's.

Julio has missed 7 games each of the last 2 years. I'd go after a guy like Keelan Cole. Had 750 yards last year for a terrible Jacksonville team.
