Things seems to be picking up steam quickly with regard to a trade involving Davante Adams. First he’s suddenly missing a game due to a mysterious hamstring injury from practice, then his head coach is liking posts about trade rumors involving him, then they’re said to be shopping him, and, as it turns out it’s at his request.
Now we’ve moved to the compensation portion of the program. Which according to Adam Schefter would involve at least a round two pick along with other compensation.

Most probably assume “Additional compensation” would be a player swap as well. Perhaps a receiver the team taking on Davante would no longer start once Adams arrives. But it’s hard to say for sure.
You’d have to think that if a team expected to be low in the first round offered them a first round pick, they’d take that as well. Davante is still an elite receiver who could be the missing piece for a Super Bowl ring for the right team. Several teams you’d have to figure would step up to win that sweepstakes.
