The Las Vegas Raiders added to their collection of weapons when they acquired superstar wide receiver Davante Adams from the Green Bay Packers. With incumbent stars Hunter Renfrow and Darren Waller alongside Adams, the potential for their passing attack is obviously very high.

Quarterback Derek Carr is likely itching to get on the field and throw to Adams, his former college teammate at Fresno State, while continuing to cultivate his connections with Renfrow and Waller. On Monday, a rumor surfaced that the Packers and Raiders were “engaged in trade talks” involving Waller. A fan pointed out this rumor to Carr, who responded with three words on Twitter.

Clearly, Carr isn't paying any attention to this rumor. Of course, the fact that the Raiders and Packers are “engaging in trade talks” doesn't necessarily mean that anything will come of the conversations.

Count Carr among the group that thinks nothing will come of the Packers' inquiries about Waller. It certainly would be odd to see the Raiders let go of their star tight end, who had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons before sadly succumbing to injury last year, when they could have a three-headed monster with Waller, Adams, and Renfrow in the upcoming season.

Carr, who just earned a rather large payday with the Raiders, is likely feeling motivated to prove he's worth the money to those who doubt his ability. One can bet that he's not about to let one of his favorite targets be shipped off without having a say in the matter.
