The Las Vegas Raiders could still be in the mix for Davante Adams, and here are three trades that could get the job done.

Last season, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr threw for nearly 5,000 yards in a year where every obstacle that could have derailed the team from success tried to. As the Raiders enter the 2022-2023 season, the team is looking outward to bolster their receiving corps.

Since the end of the season, Carr has been extremely vocal about the potential of playing with his best friend and college teammate Davante Adams, even going as far as saying he will “buy him a car” if he joins the Raiders. With the Packers placing the franchise tag on Adams, if the Raiders were to bring him to Vegas it would now need to be completed via trade.

While it may seem like a longshot, especially with Aaron Rodgers coming back to the Packers in 2022, the star wideout has said he will not play under the franchise tag. That means the Packers will either have to pay him a ton of money to keep his services or find a trade partner to get maximum trade value for him.

Here, we will take a look at three trade scenarios that the Raiders could make to make a splash at landing the standout wide receiver.
