Now people are extremely out on the Raiders, which has always been the starting gun for blog rumors and speculation about his future in Las Vegas. It's so much fun! </p><p>This week's speculation started at ESPN, where they bravely stood up and suggested that the Raiders should <a href="https://justblogbaby.com/posts/raiders-linked-to-another-davante-adams-trade-after-rough-week-3-performance">trade Adams to the Jets</a>. Now, Adams is "making" headlines with his latest interview on Kay Adams' show. The two got to talking about Jayden Daniels' huge night against the Bengals on <i>Monday Night Football</i>, and Adams – the one who plays for the Raiders, that is – let it slip that he was on the Raiders' radar during NFL Draft season. </p><h2>Davante Adams confirms Raiders' interest in Jayden Daniels in 2024 Draft</h2><p>"He won the Heisman for a reason," <a href="https://x.com/UpAndAdamsShow/status/1838600980239208642">Adams said.</a> "He's a special player. We were hoping that maybe that all the teams didn't think so and he would slip down to the Raiders a little while ago. But he's out there doing his thing. It's impressive to watch as such a young kid with a lot of expectations coming in. It's hard to perform like that, especially on a team that's been struggling for a while. Really proud of him – looks like he's been able to turn it around." </p><p>This actually isn't all that surprising given the rumors that were around back then. Daniels and Pierce go back to their days together at Arizona State – where Daniels played before transferring to LSU and Pierce was an assistant coach – and the Raiders were, in theory, in the market for a QB. It always felt like the Raiders were too far back to have any realistic shot at Daniels, but there was a week or two there when it seems like they somewhat-seriously thought about it. </p><p>No one's complaining about who they ended up taking, but it did sting a bit to see Daniels seemingly have his big moment on the road during a nationally televised game while Gardner Minshew got subbed out of the final 5 minutes in a blowout loss to the Carolina Panthers. Bridge quarterback seasons: turns out, they're not that fun after all. </p></div></body>
