Jamal Adams

I know this one is going to sting.

Buccaneers fans have held out hope that Tampa would make a blockbuster trade to bring in Jamal Adams from the New York Jets.

After all, Adams has requested a trade from the Jets and the Bucs are on his shortlist of teams he would preferred to be traded to.

Even with those two things being said, the chances of the Buccaneers making a trade for Adams are slim-to-none. They would have to restructure deals in a hurry to sign him following this season and there’s not much the Bucs can offer in trade value (other than draft picks). The Jets are going to have much better offers from other franchises that will lead to Tampa Bay being left off as serious trade contenders.

Next. 3 Chiefs to target following Patrick Mahomes' contract. dark

As much as it may hurt to say so, the truth is that there’s just not a clear avenue to see Jamal Adams end up in Tampa Bay.
