Did Davante Adams just take a shot at Packers offense?

Davante Adams is one of the NFL’s top wide receivers. And the talented performer appears to be impressed with what he has seen with his new team’s attack.

Adams built up quite the eight-year resume while in Green Bay. During his career with the Packers, wide receiver Adams caught 669 passes for 8,121 yards and 73 scores in 116 regular-season contests. He’s been named to the last five Pro Bowls and earned All-Pro honors the past two seasons. And in his early days with the Las Vegas Raiders, the 29-year-old pro has made some interesting observations about the offense.

“Everybody’s a threat out there,” said Adams (via Levi Damien of RaidersWire.com). “It’s not like we’re setting up a play. Obviously, in pretty much every pass play you have the number one read, but you can get the ball from anywhere. You can be a guy that’s setting up another guy, but the coverage dictates that you get the ball. So, it kind of keeps guys’ minds in it and keeps you alive within every route.”

The eight-year pro cited his days at Fresno State and his early NFL days when it came to his insight into what new head coach Josh McDaniels has brought to the Silver and Black.

“I’ve been a part of a few – whether it’s in college or early in my career or whatever it may be – where you got a dummy route, as they say. But there’s really no dummy routes in this offense,” He said. “It keeps every guy alive in the offense because you know you can get it and there’s so many things that marry up and keep the defense honest with each route, so it makes it pretty tough for the defense to know what’s coming.”

So were Adams’ comments an indictment of how things work in Green Bay?

All told, it appears to me more of a compliment to what Josh McDaniels has brought to the Raiders’ attack. And it’s safe to say that the former Patriots’ offensive coordinator and well-traveled coach has had his share of success in this area.
