3 years agoA rumor surfaced on Monday that the Green Bay Packers were targeting a trade for Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro tight end Darren Waller. The Athletic's Jeff Howe reported in early April that the Packers and Raiders discussed an unnamed player as a possible addition to the Davante Adams trade, and it turns out that Waller was the player discussed. Raiders quarterback Derek Carr laughed off the rumor, saying there's "no chance" that Waller would be traded. Waller has two years left on his contract with no guaranteed money, and his $7.575 million per-year average is 16th among tight ends. If the Raiders don't intend to sign him to a big extension in the next two years, it might make sense for them to consider dealing him. However, it seems like a long shot that Waller will be on the move before or during this week's NFL draft.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
