Saints trade proposal reunites Davante Adams with Derek Carr
The Saints must go all-in to get Davante Adams.
Star wide receiver Davante Adams is seemingly done with the Las Vegas Raiders after putting in a trade request on Tuesday following the team’s Week 4 victory over the Cleveland Browns, which the pass-catcher sat out of with an injury. While many teams would like to have him, reports are that Adams would prefer to go to a team that has a quarterback he is familiar with. That means there are really two options: Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets or Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints.
To swoop in and steal Adams for the Jets — the most likely landing spots – the Saints will have to come with a stronger trade offer. That means the Saints’ trade proposal that reunites Davante Adams with Derek Carr is simple but massive. New Orleans will have to give up a first-round pick.
Why do the Saints have to give up a valuable first-round selection in a Davante Adams trade despite reports that the Raiders would take a second-rounder for him?
