That would be great in a Madden world, but it doesn\u2019t seem realistic that the Raiders would help the Chiefs pursue a third Super Bowl unless they gave up a premium.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Instead, the Chiefs might have to explore other receiver options on the trade market. Robert Woods has shown he can still be a complementary piece in a good offense, but the Texans\u2019 depth at receiver has relegated him to a tiny role in Houston. He would be a much greater help to the Chiefs\u2026even if Houston might be hesitant to help Kansas City as well.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Chiefs are being encouraged to consider a trade for a Woods instead of pursuing Davante Adams.\u00a0Analysts suggest\u00a0that acquiring a proven player like Woods could enhance their already potent offense, providing Mahomes with an additional weapon.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/USATSI_15393343_168400517_lowres-scaled.webp?ezimgfmt=rs:783x1175\/rscb1\/ng:webp\/ngcb1\" alt=\"Kansas City Chiefs, Robert Woods\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" \/><em>Jan 3, 2021; Inglewood, California, USA; Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods (17) is defended by Arizona Cardinals outside linebacker De\u2019Vondre Campbell (59) in the first quarter at SoFi Stadium.
