Davante Adams

Ideally it makes a lot of sense.

What are the pros & cons and would you trade for him?

Danno · 10-03-2024, 07:56 AM

I'd be excited to have him. But we have many more holes, OL and DL especially

What happens with this WR core once Olave and/or Shaheed gets injured? ... well Chris technically played through an injury last week.

- 1 year rental

Adams would have to restructure his contract.

I don't see this team as being "one player away" from a deep post season run. With this current O line, he may not be a difference maker.

I wouldn't give up a 2. At best, #3.

Lastly, he's up in age but still a good player. Just my couch GM opinion.

Excluding maybe the Giants, Bears and Panthers I don’t believe there isn’t a team in the NFC that is not capable of making a deep playoff run. Who scares anyone over here. I mean Sam Darnold and the Vikings are the best team right now. It’s wide open so I say one big name player could make a small difference.

Agree but are there upgrades available and presenting themselves to us?

McCoy will be back and our remaining schedule is favorable. What could Adams mean to this offense if we (gasp) make the playoffs!!??

He's 32 and wants to win a ring more than money. I'd bet we get 2-3 years

To sweeten the deal, I'd throw in Paulson Adebo or A.T. Perry. Don't see the Saints building with those guys long term.

Listening to Underhill on his recent podcast, doesn't sound like Perry will have any integral part on offense going forward

What good is it if the offensive line can't give the QB more than 2 seconds or properly block in the run game to keep the defense from going for the QB every down?

rezburna · 10-03-2024, 09:32 AM

Add him to the mix. We’re locked in with Carr anyway. Might as well try to maximize your firepower and see where it takes you.

Exactly... if we're going to trade, let's get some OL depth.

Eff those overpriced soon to be over-the-hill prima donnas.

Danno is correct.
If the Saints can improve the O-line and/or D-line before the trade deadline the Saints chances of getting to the playoffs improves.
