The Green Bay Packers made a monumental trade sending Davante Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders and it’s definitely not something Packers fans are happy about.
Las Vegas Raiders fans should be thrilled right now. The Raiders just made a fantastic trade to get one of the best receivers in the NFL paired up with Derek Carr. That’s huge for the Raiders! Green Bay Packers fans, on the other hand, aren’t exactly happy that Davante Adams is headed to LAs Vegas.
In an incredibly noteworthy trade, the Packers decided to move Adams to the Raiders in exchange for some 2022 draft picks.
It’s great the Packers were able to get some good draft picks. In a vacuum, without any extra context, Green Bay fans would love the fact that their team is looking to build in the draft. What they are definitely not loving is the fact that Adams, a longtime Packers receiver, will no longer be on the roster.

The real question becomes: How in the hell did the Packers convince Aaron Rodgers to come back without Davante???

All that said, there are some who are seeing a bright side here. Adams is getting a ton of money. It’ll be interesting to see how that contract looks in a few years.
Run it back with everyone but Adams and add four first/second-round picks. This was the right move https://t.co/d28c1HSuGX
