Darren Waller News
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller said that despite any pre-draft rumors connecting him to a trade to the Green Bay Packers, the Raiders told him that he's staying in Las Vegas. "They said that's not a thing that's happening and there's no trade that's going to happen," Waller said Wednesday. Trade rumors are often floated out there right before the NFL draft, and it looks like this one doesn't have any legs to it. The Packers certainly could use all the receiving help they can get after trading All-Pro wideout Davante Adams to the Raiders earlier this offseason, Waller won't be joining forces with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Waller will lose targets in the passing game to Adams, but he should still be an elite TE1 for fantasy managers if he stays in Las Vegas.
A 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.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller could be on the move this offseason. The Raiders and Green Bay Packers reportedly discussed having Waller part of the Davante Adams trade earlier in the year. However, the league rules prohibited a non-tagged player to be traded for a tagged player. The 29-year-old tight end has two years left on his deal, but is coming off an injury plagued season. Waller is likely to take a backseat to Adams and Hunter Renfrow in the Raiders offense. Possibly, the Raiders are able to flip Waller for a high round draft pick from Green Bay.
