Feel Sorry For Davante Adams

Brett Hundley is going to cost Davante Adams MILLIONS of dollars. Set up to cash in on his contract year, Adams numbers are set to plummet ROS.

This is a what have you done for me lately league. When half your season is torpedoed by a handcuffed backup QB the GMs in this league are going to be looking for a bargain with Adams. I wonder what 17 would say damaged him more, the hit by Trevathan, or the downgrade at QB? I don't mean that insensitively. The head shot was awful but this is going to hurt him financially and I wonder what he would view as worse for him.

Honestly, I feel for Davante Adams. The org has to look at the bright side in this situation. They're likely to save untold millions on a potential 17 extension.

Maybe, that's why Mike McCarthy is handcuffing Brett? 🙂

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

The head shot did nothing. Didn't you see the Cowboys game?

I think he will be signed for a discount, but there will still be at least a team or two willing to overpay for his services. He has proven to be a very capable receiver, at worst. Some teams might try to low ball him based on his low numbers this season, but he had good numbers the previous year, and some team with a lot of cap space and a need a WR will project his capabilities forward and be willing to pay him relatively fair market value to win his services.

Hopefully the Packers can resign him soon and get him at a discount before he hits the open market. Adams should know what Aaron Rodgers can do for him, and the Packers don't have much else at WR or TE.

Adams isn't to the level that Jordy or even James Jones were at this point in their careers.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I absolutely don't believe it but what if this was all a conspiracy? We haven't seen the X-Rays... IT'S A FAKE! Mike, Ted, and Aaron are blowing this season so we can keep Davante on the cheap and get a better draft pick next year!

I was talking about this with a friend Sunday, it was one of the few silver linings we could see to losing Rodgers.

Doesn't have elite deep speed, but he can go up and get the ball. If he has a good agent, they'll get a deal on incentives.
