Tyreke to Dolphins for 5 draft picks1, 2 and 3 round this year 4 and 6 in 2023
Either the Packers or Dolphins got fleeced.
My thought immediately was the Packers really misread things with Adams on all accounts. KC got way more for Hill.
Aren’t the situations pretty different? Adams wasn’t under contract and wanted to go to the Raiders. Hill was still under contract and had two teams bidding for him. Plus the first rounder the Packers got is 7 spots higher. Also, I think you are limited on the return for trading a guy that you tag.
It will be interesting to see how effective davante will be with a quarterback with less ability than Rodgers throwing to him. Remember when Jenkins left the pack for the Vikings? His numbers (except for his contract $$’s)never came close to those he generated under favre
Adams wants a Super Bowl. He wasn’t getting that with Rodgers as his QB
If Adams wants a Super Bowl, Derek Carr is sure as hell not gonna take him there if Rodgers couldn't.Yeah, I know it was a troll job, but I bit anyway.
Who?I'm guessing you mean Greg Jennings? Who played his first 2 years with Favre, but spent much more time (and was more productive) with Rodgers.
According to the NFL Draft value chart, GB & Miami got virtually the same value back for Adams and Hill.So, unless one thinks there is a huge difference between these guys value to their teams (and that value depends a lot on the cast of players around them), the trades really did not favor either teams.
Yep, trades almost identical in value if you assume that Miami is in the middle of the pack next year, discounted for time value of money.I have no real problem in value, with the exception that I thought both teams should have gotten more. But it was consistent with similar leverage.I would be fine with the Packers flipping both Raiders picks for Metcalf. They'll pay him too, but he's only 25 and going on his 2nd contract and he's dirt cheap this year to use that money elsewhere
I'd rather they traded for Lockett instead of Metcalfe. Way cheaper to keep with a reasonable salary for the next several years. Stats aren't a lot different and would cost a lot less to acquire (no 1st rounder). Money to keep Jaire is #1 right now.
If Matthew Stafford, Nick Foles and Joe Flacco can win a Super Bowl, Derek Carr can win a Super Bowl. The guy dragged a team to the playoffs throwing the ball to Zay Jones, Hunter Renfrow and Foster Moreau.
If we can pull that off, I think the Packers definitely win on those trades.
The Raiders aren't coming out of the AFC West. It's the best division in football.
Shortly after the season ended, he made it known that he wanted out and his desire was to play for the Las Vegas Raiders and quarterback Derek Carr, his former college teammate and close friend, a source said. The public didn’t know Adams was adamant about leaving for the team he cheered for while growing up in East Palo Alto, California. But it was no secret among Packers officials that Adams wanted out.The Packers had a better offer on the table than from the summer – one source said it was $25 million per year over three years – but Adams, after speaking with Carr and Bauer, was adamant he wanted to move on. Specifically, he wanted to play for the Raiders.As many have reported, Rodgers knew about Adams’ desire well before he signed his record-breaking $151 million extension. There wasn’t anything he could do about it. Undoubtedly, he wanted Adams to stay, but his priority was his own contract and he wound up doing what was best for him.
