The Las Vegas Raiders have plenty of good pieces throughout the roster but the team may be too weak at quarterback to realistically compete in a loaded AFC. A lot of those pieces are young pieces to build around but there’s one aging star who isn’t particularly patient.
Wide receiver AdDavante ams will be turning 32 during the 2024 season. He remains one of the top receivers in the NFL and wants to compete for Super Bowls. That could prove difficult in Las Vegas until they figure out the quarterback position. Adams hasn’t been shy about showing his frustration when the team isn’t winning but has maintained he doesn’t want to get traded
ESPN’s Seth Walder isn’t buying that he’ll be with the Raiders long-term. He pitched a trade that would send Adams to the Buffalo Bills for a 2025 second-round pick.
In a commentary published on August 7, Walder stated, “Adams is 31 years old and expected to make only $17.5 million in cash this season.” In addition to being older (and possibly exhibiting some early indicators of decline) next year, he is expected to earn $36.25 million at that time. The Raiders may never be able to sell Adams if they don’t deal him before this year’s trade deadline.
