Davante Adams Next Team Odds: Jets Heavily Favored; Chiefs Among Longshots

  • Davante Adams has made his wishes to be traded by the Las Vegas Raiders known
  • The Jets are the -150 favorite to land his services, followed by the Saints
  • A look at the odds on where Davante Adams will land before the trade deadline, with a prediction

Davante Adams is in the midst of his third season with the Las Vegas Raiders, and while he hasn’t demanded a trade, he’s let it be known that he’d like to be dealt. Among his preferred destinations are a pair of teams with QB’s he’s played with – Aaron Rodgers and the Jets and Derek Carr and the Saints.

Granting his wish will be tricky for the Raiders, given that his cap number is a little more than $25 million this season, with two more years on the deal that sees him owed almost $90M. That isn’t deterring teams from wanting to add the three-time All Pro and six-time Pro Bowler to their roster.

What teams are the most likely to acquire Adams? Is there an underdog who could swoop in and land the talented receiver? Odds for all teams are below.

The Jets are the odds-on favorite at -150 to land the star wideout. That’s followed by the Saints at +300, with the Commanders and Steelers each at +500, and the Raiders to keep Adams round out the top-five at +700.

There haven’t been any definitive reports of Adams demanding a ticket out of town, but where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and it appears the writing is on the wall for his departure.

Favorites To Land Davante Adams

The New York Jets are a worthy favorite to land the three-time All Pro, given his connection to Aaron Rodgers, who he played with for eight seasons in Green Bay. The Jets are a middling team in terms of passing yardage (18th) and are 22nd in points per game (19.0). New York’s Super Bowl odds would surely rise from what is currently the ninth shortest odds (+2200) to win the Lombardi Trophy, should they pluck Adams away.

Despite being the second choice, the Saints seemingly wouldn’t need him, since they’re scoring a league-best 31.8 points per game. However, they’ve lost two straight, only putting up 36 points, compared to 91 the first two contests. What’s hurting New Orleans’ chances is that they have the third least amount of cap space available to them.

The Commanders and Steelers are tied for the third shortest odds. Rookie QB Jayden Daniels has been electric to begin his career, with the best completion percentage in NFL history in the first four games (82.1%), so adding a player like Adams would be phenomenal.

Pittsburgh’s passing attack could really pair George Pickens with another established player to aid in Justin Fields’ development. The Steelers were also rumored all off-season to be looking for wide receiver help, namely the 49ers’ Brandon Aiyuk.

Chiefs Could Be Suitor For Davante Adams

Davante Adams’ contract for the remainder of the season is approximately $13.5 million, meaning currently just a third of the league (eleven teams) could take him on, unless they made other moves. Of course, the Raiders could eat salary to facilitate the transaction, which would likely yield them a better draft selection.

The Chiefs at +1200 are an intriguing option, especially considering other wideouts like Hollywood Brown (out for year) and Rashee Rice (knee) are unable to suit up. The question, however, is will the Raiders trade to a division rival? Kansas City also has less than $5M to work with. 13 teams have averaged more points per game, and KC is also down multiple running backs, so the timing couldn’t be more right to snag Adams.

Davante Adams Next Team Prediction

Like The Chiefs, the Buffalo Bills would have a hard time squeezing Davante Adams in, given their cap situation. However, they have the ammo to make a deal happen, given that they have an extra second-round pick, acquired from Houston when they dealt Stefon Diggs in the off-season. Apart from Khalil Shakir, Josh Allen has a collection of good-not-great wide receivers to throw the ball to.

Keon Coleman is the only other WR on the roster with over 100 yards on the campaign, and he’s a rookie. A committee approach can work, but the Bills were stymied by the Ravens D last Sunday, recording just ten points.

The added benefit of Buffalo acquiring Adams is it keeps them from division rival New York, plus playoff bugaboo Kansas City. Given that five squads have shorter odds to land Adams, there’s value in riding with Bills Mafia.
