Dana White wanted Tom Brady to play one more season -- and to do it for the Las Vegas Raiders.
,"I was hammering him to come to Vegas."
Dana -- a huge Patriots fan who calls Sin City home -- says the conversations all went down shortly after Brady and the Buccaneers were booted from the playoffs ... and the TB12 retirement talk started to circulate. The UFC honcho tells us he tried hard to get inside information from Tom about what he was going to do ... and the entire time, he said he was urging the guy to force a trade from Tampa to Nevada.
"I was firing texts to him and he sent very cryptic text messages," White says."He had me thinking he wasn't going to retire. So, you know what I was doing? I was hammering him to come to Vegas and play for the Raiders."
