Imagine if we finish tonight's draft by trading the last pick and Clyde for DeHop. I'd go ****ing wild.

Why on earth would we be out on DHop because we drafted a WR that some of us (humble brag) have been saying for over a month we'd draft in the 2nd round? Everyone with the slightest clue what our needs wear expected us to draft a WR. Certainly doesn't mean we're out on DHop.

Brother, you're going to be the happiest wrong muthascratcha anyone ever saw about next December.

I’m still intrigued for the same reason I was a few months ago. A short term contract guy who gives us time and patience to develop some young guys. And provides insurance in case no true WR1 emerges. A benefit you can’t get from a WR who wants a long term deal

Two DeHops is better than one.

Lol, it's possible. And I would be happy.


I'm not saying the worst-case scenario is going to happen, I'm saying that it's very possible that all these guys might struggle. Or rather, that several of them might struggle. It's mathematically possible, even likely.

But to say that we could have Toney miss a bunch of games and Skyy busts, and somehow we still have a top-5 offense with the Ross brothers (who probably won't play 17 games combined), Richie (undersized version of Skyy), Justin Watson (ST player more than WR) and Rice? That's not likely at all.

I'm just tempering my expectations.

Alright, now that we drafted a guy who might start to make a serious contribution in 2024, time to see what the latest ask is on Dhop.

Yeah, I’m in the “hard pass” group now.

I would argue that while definitely not preferable this offense can be productive with Watson as the no 3. He was actually useful as a no 4 or 5 WR option last year and effective as a deep threat. No, he's not scaring anyone, but outside of that two game stretch where he convinced himself he was MVS he was very dependable when he got open. He's able to do the bare minimum necessary that's asked of him.

Sky isn't going to be a bust - he's not just not a stud. He's a guy that struggled to learn the offense year 1 with a HC that doesn't like playing guys who don't know their full responsibilities. He'll be fine.

MVS is what he is. He's dangerous deep, drops passes, but also has big play upside. While much taller he's not that dissimilar from Hardman. Slower accelerating and not as top end fast while having a much larger catch radius and better vertical game. He'll get it done.

And that's the TDLR: nothing special, covers the bare minimum to function with limited upside, will do enough to allow the offense to succeed with Kelcee and PM carrying the offense. If we can get more out of Grey, Pacheco, and MEH we can function close to what last year's offense achieved.

And to offset a slight drop in offensive production this defense should take sizeable steps forward. Four starters will be in year 2 instead of learning on the job. They'll have a full year in the scheme as well as conditioning and defined roles.
