The NFL draft starts in three days and we’re on pace for an league record eight teams not selecting in the first round because of a trade.
The Las Vegas Raiders, of course, are one of the quarter of the league that currently don’t have a first-round pick. The reason, of course, is that they sent their first-round pick (No. 22) and second-round (No. 53) to the Green Bay Packers for superstar wide receiver Davante Adams last month.
Yes, the price was steep for Las Vegas to obtain Adams. But that’s the price of doing business these days.
