The Bills are seventh in FPI\u2019s chances to win the Super Bowl (5.7%), but a move for Adams \u2014 who had more than 100 catches for a fourth straight season in 2023 \u2014 would instantly make them a top contender again.<\/p>\n<p>A second-round pick for what would likely \u2014 though not definitely \u2014 be a one-year rental is a hefty price. But the change in Super Bowl odds would be worth it. It would be close to even in terms of assets when factoring in the Stefon Diggs trade that Buffalo made this offseason \u2014 and I\u2019d rather have Adams than Diggs.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Raiders?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Raiders<\/a> WR Davante Adams was asked which team in the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFL?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFL<\/a> has the worst fans &amp; why?<\/p>\n<p>Two of the teams he mentioned were the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bills?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Bills<\/a> &amp; the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Patriots?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Patriots<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Davante after the trade goes through at the deadline you\u2019re going to fit right in \ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfa5 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/firstwefeast?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@firstwefeast<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/seanseaevans?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@seanseaevans<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/JetUp?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#JetUp<\/a>\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tAUGejKcLx\">pic.twitter.com\/tAUGejKcLx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Paul Andrew Esden Jr (@BoyGreen25) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BoyGreen25\/status\/1819835439379009670?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 3, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In trading Diggs, the Bills took on a massive dead money hit of $31 million.
