We've talked about Devontae Adams and the Jets plenty.
00:06
Devontae Adams hadn't anywhere else.
00:09
Where are you guys landing on this Adams situation and everything that's playing out right now,
00:14
Donnie?
00:15
I'll go with you.
00:16
Here's what I'm shocked at.
00:17
And I saw the report come out today, maybe Adam Kaplan can have a little bit more on
00:20
this later as well.
00:21
The Saints are the most aggressive team pushing forward.
00:24
And I say to myself, and here's why I like this, because you guys know me when I talk
00:27
about the salary cap.
00:28
If you have an NFL ownership group that's willing to spend money, there isn't really
00:31
a cap.
00:32
So riddle me this, Batman, out here.
00:35
You are $90 million over the cap projected for next year.
00:40
If you get Devontae Adams, he has about $30, $35 million left on his contract.
00:44
It's not guaranteed.
00:45
Do you know what Devontae goes?
00:46
Hey, man, love the Saints.
00:48
But before you trade for me, let's get those dollars worked out and bump that even north.
00:52
How do they afford him?
00:53
Let me start there.
00:54
The Saints, I think, is a good match.
00:56
How can they afford the guy?
00:57
I don't know how they can afford him.
00:59
It's ridiculous when you think about the price tag.
01:01
The fit, obviously, with Derek Carr, there's a need.
01:03
I don't think, outside of Chris Alave, they don't have elite talent, right?
01:08
I mean, good wide receivers, but not elite.
01:10
So that would help them in regards to Challenge Tampa Bay and Atlanta.
01:13
We saw the 500-yard performance with Kirk Cousins on Thursday night.
01:18
That might be the need for Dennis Allen from the football perspective.
01:22
I still go back to the two teams that I mentioned, Steelers with Justin Fields, a couple of them
01:28
potentially with George Pickens.
01:30
They don't have a real legitimate number one, even though Pickens is hopefully working his
01:35
way into that role.
01:37
And the Bills, I think today will dictate maybe whether they go after Devontae Adams
01:43
even harder.
01:44
Because if they struggle today, to your point, and Josh has another 180, 175, and Keon Coleman's
01:52
hot and cold today, and Kincaid is not involved in that offense, maybe there is a bigger push
01:58
for the Buffalo Bills in regards to that.
02:00
And who knows?
02:01
What if Khalil Shakir's injury lingers a little bit longer?
02:03
But that is why I wanted to not only get to Devontae Adams, because the big team that
02:09
probably needs wide receiver is the Kansas City Chiefs, and a lot of us are under the
02:13
idea that they shouldn't even bother calling the Las Vegas Raiders, and that's just not
02:19
something that's on the board.
