Whether KC wins the SB or not this year the Raiders sure as fuck aren't going to so its not really going to make a difference in their season.
That being said I doubt we have the best offer to throw at them anyway but I would also imagine Adams has a say in where he ends up.
Agreed. If the Chiefs gave an offer that was clearly better than any other offer, the Raiders would take it. It's not like Adams would terrorize them for the next ten years. [Reply]

Do you think they’ll take 2 first rounders over our 3? Would be fucking stupid to say no just bc we’re in the same division
Have you ever run a business?
I suspect the answer is no.
You don't give your biggest competitor your best employee. That is akin to stealing from yourself. Especially when they can go to a smaller, or non-competitor for the same or very close compensation. [Reply]
Give them our 2nd and extra 3rd? Hell, toss a late rounder in there too, let's do this Burt Varch!
ESPN sources: Raiders have informed other teams that they would “consider” trading WR Davante Adams for a package that would include a second-round pick and additional compensation. pic.twitter.com/RtRrhUeYKi

I don’t think it’s even about draft capitol, we don’t have the money to pay him, do we? [Reply]
