The Davante Adams trade sweepstakes has begun.  The Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver has informed the team that he wants to be traded.

 

The Kansas City Chiefs are without Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice; they need a wide receiver to team with Patrick Mahomes in a bad way.

Would the Raiders be willing to trade within the AFC West division to make the defending Super Bowl Champions an even better team in 2024? The Chiefs sit atop the division at 4-0 while the Raiders, Chargers, and Broncos are tied at 2-2.

FanDuel projects that the Raiders could ask for 1st-round and 5th-round 2025 draft picks in exchange for Adams. 

The 31-year-old Adams has 18 receptions for 209 yards and 1 touchdown in 2024.  Kay Adams asked him directly if he had played his last game with the Raiders.  His answer did not reveal anything.
