Possible landing spots for Davante Adams of the Las Vegas Raiders

Possible landing spots for Davante Adams of the Las Vegas Raiders

There was a lot of news on Tuesday about a possible trade involving wide receiver Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders.

We reported last night that a source told us that if the Raiders were to trade the six-time Pro Bowler, it would have to be a “substantial” deal.

According to NFL insiders Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, Adams even told the team that he preferred to be traded.

It seems all signs point to an impending trade for star wideout.

Which team(s) would be involved in this case?

Sports Illustrated's Conor Orr broke down some teams that could be potential destinations for Adams. Let's look at the ones that make the most sense.

New York Giants/Arizona Cardinals/Chicago Bears

“If you're on the Giants, Cardinals or Bears, from a financial perspective your quarterback situation is either 'fixed' … or it will improve,” Orr wrote.

Orr noted that Adams would be a “mentor” for the Giants to a potential rookie under center next year and/or young, up-and-coming wide receiver Malik Nabers. He described a similar situation with Arizona Cardinals rookie Marvin Harrison Jr. and Chicago Bears rookie wideout Rome Odunze.

New York Jets

Orr calls this “obvious.” It would reunite Adams with his former longtime quarterback Aaron Rodgers, a hope Orr believes is mutual. As with the previous scenarios, Orr noted that Adams could help a young, up-and-coming wideout in Garrett Wilson.

Washington commanders

Orr detailed the impact Adams could have on rookie star quarterback Jayden Daniels and Washington offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury.

Pittsburgh Steelers

There is no doubt that the 3-1 Steelers could be even better with Adams. Orr acknowledged that aside from George Pickens, there aren't many threats in Pittsburgh.

New England Patriots

Orr viewed this potential trade as one of the less likely, as Adams would be back in a similar position as he was with the Raiders. The main reason for consideration is the fact that New England pursued San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk this past offseason.

Below are the remaining teams on Orr's list. These seem like the most unlikely targets.

Kansas City Chiefs

Buffalo Bills

Minnesota Vikings

New Orleans Saints

Atlanta Falcons

Los Angeles Rams

San Francisco 49ers
