Saints at the top of Davante Adams’ wish list [Raiders trade Adams to Jets for conditional 3rd ; Jets paying Adams’ entire remaining salary]

Serious question. Let's say the Saints traded for Adams and they made the numbers work. How much of an impact would Adams have if Carr doesn't have time to throw? I know Adams is great but if Carr is forced to throw off of his back foot and his passes are getting blocked at the LOS, wouldn't Adams just being a shiny new hood ornament on a Cadillac on blocks?
