The Las Vegas Raiders should have plenty of playmakers on offense in 2021, but one player could take the group to the next level.

The Las Vegas Raiders struggled mightily on the defensive side of the ball last season, finishing up in the bottom-3 of the entire NFL. The offense, on the other hand, was one of the best in football, as Derek Carr had another monster season under Jon Gruden, and both Josh Jacobs and Darren Waller made their first Pro Bowl.

One of the keys to the offense last season was the play of Nelson Agholor, who came in on a one-year deal with very low expectations and became the top wideout for the Silver and Black. With him leaving for New England in free agency, the Raiders went out and brought in veterans John Brown and Willie Snead, hoping to give the group some key pieces at the position group.

However, with Davante Adams and the Green Bay Packers breaking off contract negotiations this week, we got to thinking, how great would it be for the Raiders to go out and trade for him. Las Vegas still does not know who their WR1 will be as we are a few days away from the start of training camp, making Adams a perfect fit.

With that said, here are three reasons the Raiders must trade for Davante Adams.
