Plus his hands are better and catch radius... If Mahomes wants to throw up a 50/50 he will have a WR with great chance of winning

I think they're more worried about his availability than his ability.

I agree. I still think that Veach gave him the Juju contract offer and he's not going to take that.

I still love the idea of getting DHop. I guess one thing that is a little alarming is that the new scouting report seems to be he doesn’t get open like he used to but he will catch every damn ball you throw his way no matter how close it is. I wonder if that’s more suited for a heave ball qb than an efficient qb like mahomes. But no doubt mahomes would slay and I just want him to have a weapon so we can stop the narrative that he doesn’t need weapons.

I think there's a distinction here.

Mahomes doesn't NEED a weapon like Hopkins. We found out last year that he CAN do it when called upon.

The question is really whether that is sustainable. I think most of us believe it's not.

Obviously no one knows anything right now but my best guess for teams involved are the Chiefs, Patriots and Ravens. Giants could be interested I guess.

Didn't the Bills recently clear up $32M+ in cap space?

Yeah, because they were over. They're at $10 million right now...just like us.

Remember when I said I can't figure out OBJ's motivation?

D-Hop IS one of those ring-chasing vets and a guy who might be able to force himself into HoF consideration with a strong late-career surge.

And if he won't convert his base into bonus, his pool of suitors is going to dry up fast. He has a lot of say in where he lands here.

He's not going to the Ravens who don't actually have a QB right now. Or the Giants or Patriots who ain't winning shit. I mean...unless they decide to throw a MASSIVE pile of money at him.

If he's at all motivated by a potential championship and/or a chance to stack up some numbers, he can put his thumb on the scale and the Chiefs would absolutely have to be considered the favorites at that point, right?

And surprisingly the Bills are only projected to have $1 million in cap space next year. Weird.

If i had to pick a "stealth" team to emerge out of nowhere it'd be Buffalo.

You would think that we would be. That PED suspension might **** us though because it got rid of his no trade clause.

Brandon Cooks trade 2023 5th and 2024 6th.

Is Hopkins better than Cooks, yes but Cooks is very good and still very productive.

Hopkins trade 2023 4th and 2024 5th. That should get it done. I just dont see a 3rd after the Cooks deal.

Cards need another RB, a 4th and CEH could be another option. He is still a 1st round RB on a rookie contract. They may feel its enough sweetner to do it.

Cards threw in a broken David Johnson to sweeten the deal in the trade for Hopkins, you never know.

Hmmm....they'd be an interesting spot for him as well.

Wonder if he and Diggs would complement each other. Probably? They could use Diggs a little more downfield and have Hopkins backfill the underneath routes that Diggs was running while Davis was out there dropping passes last season.

Yuck. Imma pretend none of you fellas pointed this out.
