That was the story about Hines as well and Dorsey couldn’t use him.  Let’s face it our OC a is at best a JV football coach

Adam's is far and above the player Hines is. If Devonte Adam's is on the field he is going to make plays. Dorsey is an issue for sure but not even he would screw up what Adam's would bring to this offense.

No, they wouldn't need much cap space to take on Adams this season.   He will only have about $3M in unamortized salary by mid-season.   

 

 

Well if that’s the case then by all means do what it takes to get that done.

 

Adams is still in his prime (late).

 

And that’s two elite route runners, gets Gabe Davis off the field. 
 

If we could make it work, do it. 
 

I think it would take a 1st, or a 2nd and another piece.

Adams whole family are Raiders fans. 

 

He's not leaving LV until he retires.

With all due respect, does anyone ever look at our cap before they think this would ever happen?

I don’t think that matters at all. That said, they are a game behind us. They aren’t doing a fire sale

Adams cap hit this year is 6 million, so less than that and Raiders could eat more.

Get on the phone right now and make a deal Beane

So you want to give them a 1st? Because they are one game back in the playoffs (they are frauds but they don’t think that) and aren’t going to give him away.

Adams is absolutely worth a 1st to the Bills offense. My goodness him and Diggs would be ridiculous 

99.5% chance it never happens

but one can dream

[Gregg]

If Beane does anything at the deadline I bet, it's for help on the defense either with DT/LB or CB.

[BuffaloRebound]

Not sure why the Raiders would trade him, but Adams contract wouldn’t be problem for the Bills.  $3m or so left for 2023, then $17.5m for 2024.

They are indeed frauds but they have six highly winnable games left: Bears, Giants, Jets at home, Vikings, Colts, and Broncos, plus maybe they get lucky at home vs the Chargers. They could very conceivably win 9-10 games and get into the playoffs, and you just know that for McDaniel, that's everything. It'll save his job. He's not trading their best player!

I would love to see Adams in a Bills uniform, but I think the most pressing needs are on defense with a quality DT and CB being at the top of the list.

[Green Lightning]

Offer all of our other receivers, Elam and some picks. We will never beat elite teams with just Diggs and a collection of #3s.4s & 5 receivers.

Ageed.  I can't think of any elite teams with on elite receiving weapon and a bunch of mids!

 

lol, this place is bonkers

[colin]

it probably is impossible, even if we had something to trade for him and he wanted to come here, due to the cap.

 

that said, diggs addams and davis, w kinkaid and cook and allen is a legit unstoppable O.  in games where we play bad like we did vs jags, giants, and jets, we'd still put up 30+ points.

Other teams have receivers other than their #1 that actually get open. We do not.  We force Josh to throw pinpoint lasers to covered guys repeatedly. If you're happy with our current weapons, maybe you should reexamine what it means to be bonkers.

He’s worth even more than a first, considering the Bills will have a very late first.

 

Biggest issue would be cap. But like someone else said, Raiders are still very much in the playoff hunt. No way he goes anywhere.

[Blackbeard]

I think the lack of quality secondary players available is WHY you bring someone like an Adams in.

 

Defense isn't going to be bolstered to the point of making much impact, so run with it.   

 

Just make sure you score more points... i.e. bring in offensive weapons.

 

Would be ALL for this.

[Starr Almighty]

I can see them dealing Hunter Renfrow. He could be our new Beas he's a great route runner.
