Davante Adams knows he's great.
And after being traded to Las Vegas in the offseason, the Raiders possess enough offensive talent to win big in the 2022 NFL season.
Already, media personalities are taking notice of the dynamic pairing of Adams and Derek Carr. ESPN television personality Mike Greenberg even believes that alongside Carr, Adams has an opportunity to be this season's Offensive Player of the Year, he said on "Greeny" on Wednesday.
"I am a big fan of the Raiders," Greenberg said. "I am expecting big things from the Las Vegas Raiders this year. Josh McDaniels has a chance to be an excellent coach. Once upon a time, his old boss, Bill Belichick, had an up-and-down tenure as the head coach in Cleveland. A lot of bad things happened there that were not his fault. But one way or the other, the puck stopped with him and it didn't go well. He came back the second time, learned his lessons, and the rest is history.
"I think Josh has a chance to be a really good head coach with an unbelievable offense in Las Vegas. … Derek Carr could throw for 5,000 yards this year with that collection of offensive talent around him."
Adams, coming off two of the best seasons in his career, is connecting with his college quarterback. The familiarity may lead to even better results.
His consecutive 1,300-yard seasons earned him back-to-back Pro Bowls and AP All-Pro first teams.
He will now have an opportunity to be even better in a Raiders offense that is going for broke against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
