and thanks for bringing it 23.true, but.
By just you mean this past March?RingoCStarrQB wrote: ↑15 Jul 2024 18:09Hey. Derrick Henry just signed with the Ravens. Lamar's got another weapon.
Yeah you will never get sympathy from me when a player goes elsewhere on a 2nd or 3rd contract and suddenly loses the magic that got them to their status.
What part of Tea saying, "I want to only be on the Raiders" confused you to think it wasn't Tae's decision?Yoop wrote: ↑13 Jul 2024 08:09true, but.
seems like the affects of stupid decision making of the team myself, Tae went there to unite with his old College QB, who very likely would have dimed that long ball, obviously not his decision to trade him, heck Tae was openly upset with that decision when it happened.
to bad, Adams deserved a better situation then the Raiders are providing.
the only thing Adams lost was his QB, he had more yrds and higher average his first season with the Raiders with Carr at QB.
Tae bought a home in Vegas months before he left, it was a done deal, the Packers offered him 17 mil that off season, which we both would have thought of as insulting, we did the same with just about everyone who wanted to be paid fairly on a 3rd contract, thats our MO, same as most other teams, it's normal.Labrev wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 08:05The only thing the Packers could have done differently is re-sign him earlier when he was thinking about a new deal, but at the time, the long-term situation at QB was unclear. And so they prioritized extending Rodgers but not re-signing Adams at the time he wanted his deal is reportedly what made him unhappy and then decide he wanted to play for LV.
If that's the case then sorry, Tae, but the Packers were right to do that. A WR, even an elite one, is useless if you do not have a QB that can get him the ball. Were there any doubt of that, watch the clip above. Adams is useless now, not because he is not still great, but because he can't make plays because the QBs can't get him the ball.
And yeah I know he thought he'd be playing with Carr, but there are two problems with that. One, you can never count on the QB situation to be stable when playing for incompetent franchises like LV, least of all with Josh McDaniels as your HC. Two, Carr was flat-out not a very good QB by that point.
Tae did the Rodgers thing, he placed way too much importance on playing with his buddy, rather than playing with and for winners.
Very dumb decision, and since the result we are seeing was entirely predictable, I don't feel much sympathy for him.
Get your facts straight. The $17M offer was an extension offer BEFORE his final season in Green Bay. All reports said Green Bay offered MORE than Las Vegas during the offseason he was traded but his mind was already made up that Green Bay could not do anything to keep him. He was butt hurt about being low-balled the offseason before.Yoop wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 08:19Tae bought a home in Vegas months before he left, it was a done deal, the Packers offered him 17 mil that off season, which we both would have thought of as insulting, we did the same with just about everyone who wanted to be paid fairly on a 3rd contract, thats our MO, same as most other teams, it's normal.
I think most players would be butt hurt if they were offered $17M after being the top WR in the league. That was an embarrassing offer by the team.NCF wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 08:28Get your facts straight. The $17M offer was an extension offer BEFORE his final season in Green Bay.

That's fine. The truth is he had a year left on his contract, so he did not have leverage. When he did, he chose to use it to exit the team rather than cash in with them.lupedafiasco wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 09:10I think most players would be butt hurt if they were offered $17M after being the top WR in the league.

Agreed. Be butt hurt then get over it and move on. He choose to get less money to get out of GB. It was a choice I believe he regrets now. GB moved on and long term will be better for it.NCF wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 09:26That's fine. The truth is he had a year left on his contract, so he did not have leverage.

my facts are facts, GB offered him, a measly 17 mil the year prior which Adams considered insulting, these are undisputable facts, and Gute didn't up the offer till well after Tae had bought a house in Vegas, and committed to Carr and the Raiders, this stuff has been reported by many different sources, I mean if you guys want to diss the dude, I just don't get it, best damn thing to happen to this team the last 10 yearsNCF wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 08:28Get your facts straight.

Wrong again. He didn't buy the house until 14 days before the trade. The Packers negotiated with him all offseason.Yoop wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 10:57my facts are facts, GB offered him, a measly 17 mil the year prior which Adams considered insulting, these are undisputable facts, and Gute didn't up the offer till well after Tae had bought a house in Vegas, and committed to Carr and the Raiders, this stuff has been reported by many different sources, I mean if you guys want to diss the dude, I just don't get it, best damn thing to happen to this team the last 10 yearsNCF wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024 08:28Get your facts straight.
