Las Vegas Raiders: What would an Aaron Rodgers trade look like?

Lots of moving parts

As mentioned, the Raiders have the NFL’s best wide receiver in Davante Adams due to a trade they made with the Packers last off-season. After recording his third straight All-Pro season in Las Vegas last year, the team is likely to give him some input on who the team’s next starting quarterback will be.

With his best friend, Carr being shown the door, it seems likely that Adams’s next choice for the position would be his former Green Bay teammate Aaron Rodgers. After all, he did record 622 receptions for 7,590 passing yards and 69 touchdowns in 108 games with him as his quarterback.

If Las Vegas were to trade for Rodgers, he would not be cheap. Likely to cost the team the seventh overall pick and more, the team would be without a first-round pick for the second year in a row. Would Dave Ziegler be comfortable giving away his premium selection in back-to-back seasons? For a Hall of Fame quarterback maybe so.
