Silver Minings: You better double cover that guy

Silver Minings: You better double cover that guy

Davante Adams | Photo by Ethan Miller/ Davante Adams will beat you Why do opposing defensive coordinators even think about challenging Davante Adams in single coverage? It’s not going to work. If the superstar wide receiver has shown anything (and he’s shown a ton) in his first two seasons with the Las Vegas Raiders after a blockbuster trade with Green Bay Packers it is that he destroys single coverage. Pro Football Focus recently pointed out that Adams has 15 touchdowns against single coverage in his two seasons with the Raiders. That mark is tied for the most in...

Silver Minings: Raiders are older on offense

Davante Adams | Photo by Andy Lyons/ Getting younger is key New Las Vegas Raiders general manager Tom Telesco has a lot of work to do with free agency starting and with the draft looming next month. One of the things Telesco will likely continue to work on his getting ore youth involved, especially on the offensive side of the ball. The Raiders’ offense in 2023 was one of the most reliant on older players in the NFL. According to a recent tweet by NFL analyst Warren Sharp, the Raiders had the sixth highest percentage of offensive snaps played by players with seven ore...

Raiders free agency: It doesn’t hurt to eye wide receivers

Darnell Mooney (11) is a deep speed option that can stretch the field. The Las Vegas Raiders need more speed at the wide receiver position and Mooney can provide it. | Photo by Quinn Harris/ Especially with Hunter Renfrow’s status up in the air; depth is needed at position group Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers are a quality one-two punch at wide receiver for the Las Vegas Raiders. Both are solid route runners with strong hands and are deceptively quick able break free of coverage deep, despite being seen as possession types. Adams paced the Raiders offense with 103...

Tom Telesco discusses Josh Jacobs, Davante Adams futures

Josh Jacobs, Davante Adams | Photo by Ethan Miller/ Key offensive weapons are in new general manager’s plans When he met with media members Tuesday at the NFL combine, new Las Vegas Raiders general manager Tom Telesco said the team needs to do “a lot of work” on offense. Yet, Telesco also made it clear that two key cogs of the offense — running back Josh Jacobs and wide receiver Davante Adams — are in the team’s plans for 2024. Telesco did acknowledge that he doesn’t anticipate using the franchise tag on Jacobs (he was tagged last year). But Telesco...

Silver Minings: Need to finish stronger

Davante Adams | Photo by Candice Ward/ New offensive coordinator has easy goal A lot of going to change for the Las Vegas Raiders’ offense in the 2024 season. There is, of course, a new offensive coordinator in Luke Getsy, who spent the past two season in the same role with the Chicago Bears. Also, there will likely be a new starting quarterback in Las Vegas as the Raiders look to upgrade from second-year player Aidan O’Connell. One of the areas in which the new-look Las Vegas offense must improve in 2024 is how to finish games. According to a recent tweet by NFL...

Raiders offseason: Would you trade Davante Adams?

Raiders offseason: Would you trade Davante Adams?

Davante Adams | Photo by Jordon Kelly/Icon Sportswire via Or is he the solution? Davante Adams, for some reason, seems to be a hot-button subject for fans of the Las Vegas Raiders. Here’s the reality: He is an elite player at a premium position and he can be part of the solution for the franchise. Plus, it seems like the team is completely committed to Adams (who is entering his third season in Las Vegas after the blockbuster trade with the Green Bay Packers in March, 2021) as they have several coaches on the staff that worked with him in Green Bay, including new...

Silver Minings: Davante Adams was league leader in snap count

Crosby, though, wasn’t the only Raiders’ player who played a ton of snaps last season. He was joined by fellow Las Vegas star and leader, wide receiver Davante Adams. According to a recent tweet by NFL observer Joel Corry, Adams played the most in snap percentage of all wide receivers in the league last season. Adams played 92.06 percent of...

Davante Adams more and more entrenched with Raiders

Davante Adams | Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports Plenty of signs that star wide receiver isn’t going anywhere We haven’t even reached the two-year anniversary of the blockbuster trade that sent superstar wide receiver Davante Adams from the Green Bay Packers to the Las Vegas Raiders. Still, it seems like there’s been rumors and speculation of Adams’ departure from Las Vegas for most of his tenure with the Raiders. Yes, the Raiders haven’t had the success in Adams’ two seasons with the team that he expected. Yes, his college teammate and close friend Derek...
