The Las Vegas Raiders need to upgrade the wide receiver position, and Davante Adams has to be priority No. 1 this offseason.

After releasing Henry Ruggs III for his involvement in a DUI car crash, the Las Vegas Raiders struggled to fill the void he left behind. Hunter Renfrow and Zay Jones certainly stepped up more than expected, but it was evident that Las Vegas was without a true number one receiver.

Las Vegas will have to find one in the offseason, and there is one potential candidate that makes the most sense.

That candidate would be Davante Adams, Derek Carr’s former college teammate and current top receiver for the Green Bay Packers. Adams’ contract expires at the end of the 2022 season, and it’s unknown whether he’ll sign a new contract with Green Bay or get franchise tagged.

If he is available, then Mark Davis must do everything in his power to bring Adams to Vegas, and here is why.
