Three trade destinations that make the most sense for the Las Vegas Raiders when trading away Davante Adams
The Las Vegas Raiders are the center of attention again, and you guessed it, it's with Davante Adams, again. The Raiders are likely going to trade him so, to where, well, that is still unknown.

The Las Vegas Raiders are the center of attention again, and you guessed it, it's with Davante Adams, again. The Raiders are likely going to trade him so, to where, well, that is still unknown.
We do know his list of teams that he's interested in, but that doesn't always mean that's where he will go. The Raiders don't have any reason, really, to send Adams where he wants to go.
But, we can put together a list of a few teams that would be great to do a deal with the Raiders. They are going to do whatever deal helps them the most, so, here are some teams that could help their present or future via a trade for Adams:
New York Jets' Potential Trade for Davante Adams
This is the team that very obviously has the highest chance of trading for Davante Adams based on all the reports we have heard. Since Aaron Rodgers joined the team, the rumors have been growing bigger and bigger. And, it helps that the Jets have some things the Raiders may be interested in, like a young wide receiver in Garrett Wilson, or even a young running back in Braelon Allen, who has looked amazing as a rookie but is stuck behind Breece Hall. Who knows, maybe the Jets would be willing to send Jordan Travis, too, just for good measure.
This trade just sets the Raiders up the best to get something good in return, while also now damaging or burning any bridges or reputations with Adams, because this is a preferred destination.
New Orleans Saints' Potential Trade for Davante Adams
The Saints have some very good, young players that the Raiders may be interested in. This article is all about the best trades for the Raiders — what they can get back to make themselves better. The Saints have a few players in particular that the Raiders may be eye-balling. The first one is undoubtedly Chris Olave, one of the better young wide receivers in the league.
Of course, if they don't want to send Olave, maybe Rashid Shaheed would suffice. The only issue there is, that now you have two players who play almost the exact same in Shaheed and Tre Tucker. It can work that way, as we have seen it work before, but the Raiders may be interested in other players.
We saw rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler play very well during the preseason, and that could be a guy the team is interested in as well, but just a Rattler for Adams trade would not work. Then there are young defensive players like Alontae Taylor and Bryan Breese. Who knows what could happen?
Buffalo Bills' Potential Trade for Davante Adams
This one is far less likely than the two above, but, who's to say the Bills won't want to get Josh Allen a true WR1 back? They aren't trading Keon Coleman, because he's their most recent big-time draft pick as a rookie.
But, maybe they would give up Khalil Shakir and a pick or two. Giving Allen a top wide receiver in the league, in an offense that is usually pass-heavy, could be a fit for the Bills and Adams.
