It’s has been in the news for almost a week now that the Raiders are looking to trade Davante Adams for a second-round pick.
Some believe the Raiders will have to settle for less, but an ESPN report on Sunday said that team owner Mark Davis is firm on the price.
“The Raiders have let interested teams know that team owner Mark Davis will not accept anything less than a second-round draft pick in return for Adams, along with additional compensation that could be in the form of a draft pick or a player, according to league sources,” Schefter reported on Sunday morning.
The involvement of Davis in the asking price is a position that allows GM Tom Telesco to communicate to teams that they are negotiating with more than just the general manager.
It’s a tactic that can add strength in negotiations.
Schefter added that teams have been “hesitant” to make firm offers for Adams, believing the Raiders will use those offers to establish a trade market for Adams.
What that means for Adams is he could be waiting a while longer before he has a new team.
If teams aren’t willing to send their best offer, the Raiders could decide to wait until closer to the trade deadline and teams can send their ‘take it or leave it’ offer at that time.

Swap= Devonte Adams for Brandon Aiyuk
That doesn’t help the 48ers at all. Aiyuk knows their system so it’s better this season and is far younger then Adams and likely better in future seasons. It won’t help with the salary cap either. Try again.
Why would either team do that? Aiyuk is younger, has a better contract going forward (more team control, no need to re-work it any time soon). Is Adams currently better than Aiyujk? Probably a little bit, but for how long? As for the Raiders, they need picks, not veterans. Today’s game sure made that clear to me.
I say that same thing. Davante Adams go to 49ers and Brandon Ayiuk go to the Raiders
Trade him for no less than what Mark Davis wants and if there are no takers…..Member Marcus Allen???….You member
I member lol. if this isn’t a south park reference I’m sorry for laughing lol
Oh it is
Make him stay and play. He will hate we can love the payback to a diva wr
Hush Raiders cannot afford to make him stay n play. Know what you are saying before posting. Plus, its not Davantes fault the Raiders have been opposite of what he believed when coming to us. Cannot blame him for wanting a chance to get a ring because we are a train wreck. Be a little thoughtful.
No. The Raiders need to fix the problem with Davante. He’s a good god and he brings the fans out tot he games. I am a season ticket holder and I it happy with the Raiders decision.
If I were Adam’s I’d pay my own way out to ride himself of the raiders. The 2nd rate coach and situation he’s in
Second rate coach!? Really? Then why was Adam’s one of the main voices saying he wants AP to be his coach? You 🤡, what you seen a chance to take a shot at the raiders so you just made up some bullsh*t on the fly or what? SMH, haters gonna hate.
Hell no. Aiyuk got a huge contract and still not playing well not worth the swap
Hope the steelers get him. Look good in black and gold!
A second round pick and two coupons to Best Cuts.
F*** you PLAYERS AND THE RAIDERS BRASS. This season is over.
AP, The broncos suck bro. The savior of this team is far from the truth. Get your sh** together bro.
Wow Raiders. If your not beating your self’s you could be undefeated every year.
There’s only one team the Raiders should be dealing with and it’s not the Jets Devonte Adams to the Steelers for a third round pick and Russell Wilson
Trade Tae to Falcons for Pinex and a 2nd round pick..
The Raiders are bums trade the man your acting like 👍 that guy in Dallas your Mark, Davis are destroying the team.
Whatever the raiders get for Adam’s don’t send him where he want too go especially with the Jets where his prima Donna buddy is the jets that’s a team you will be competing with possibly for a wildcard playoff spot at seasons end. Work a deal with Pittsburgh at least where you get Russell Wilson and etc. The Raiders need a quarterback right now.
the aiyuk trade is immposible to much dead money…. But i will send Jauan Jennings and a 3rd and a (2nd round pick swap whenever our pick is higher)
Pick 2nd rd. Frim! Just don’t let that guy disturb the team, if he plays he will be a pro for his trade value to exit.its in his
Professional entress…la born raider..
If he doesn’t want to be a Raider then we need to just get rid of him! I’d trade him for a warm cup of piss if it removes him from the locker room right now!
Romeo Doubs wants out… send him and a 3rd rounder and bring Adam’s back in with Love and Jacobs.
Just lose the rest of the games. One, they suck and won’t sniff the playoffs anyway. And two, they need to be in position to draft Shedeur Sanders. Just lose baby
Any fans hating on Davante are idiots and have no understanding of this game n all it entails.
As far as Davis wanting a 2nd rounder – well we all know his knowledge n decision making is terrible n he is easily the worst owner in history. No way we can expect a 2nd rd pick with the contract Davante has. It would only be worth it if Davante agreed ahead of time to sign new contract with team n why would he do that.
