You never know what Veach has up his sleeve.

Absolutely, I'd never put anything past him. If this rumor is true though, along with the news they were swinging for A.J. Brown, it really makes you wonder what happened with Hill. If you're going to pay big for a WR, why not just keep him? Must have been more to the situation, perhaps Ty just really did want to move on.

I'm all for it if Veach thinks he can make it work without losing guys like Sneed and Bolton for the long haul.

You're right, DHop isn't a kid anymore. But can AJ do what DHop does at 9:04?:D Sick. Just sick.

Lot of nice catches, route-running, adjustments in here. Especially when you consider that he's catching passes from four different QBs, three of whom aren't NFL starters. But that catch at 9:04 is just nonsense. The one at 2:24 is pretty ridiculous as well.

You don't understand the value if you think DHop isn't worth what he would be paid here for.

The issue is will he want more? If so then no.

If he plays on the current deal it's an easy yes.

I'm not saying he's not worth the contract in a vacuum. I'm saying, in totality, I'm not sure he's worth the overall investment. He very well may be and Bert may make the deal. But those are immediately $ and assets that can't be used elsewhere. Again, maybe Bert does it, but I don't think it's a slam dunk whatsoever.

Maybe? Maybe he will if it’s on a contender. He could also do it to facilitate a trade, play for a year and then request a new deal.

No thanks, when you're already #1 with a collection of twos and threes you don't need an expensive geezer... just keep stuffing the pipeline with rookies and young vets on prove it deals

But hey, if Veach and Reid want him I'll shut up and figure they know best

Pretty sure either him or his agent has already said he wants a new contract as part of any trade.

Kind of what I was thinking.

What does the extra 3.5 give you a year?

We have proven you don't have to pay big money to receivers or rbs.

Have the GOAT at QB and win in the trenches and its a recipe for great success.

nychief 03-01-2023 03:21 PM

Of course you want him if you can make it work. He's a first ballot HOF wideout with best hands in football, he wouldn't be fair with Patrick Mahomes throwing him the the ball. Now, can you make it work? That's a different discussion.

For those implying that he's washed up and/or too old, less than 5 months ago he went on a multi-game run where he was a top-5 WR in the NFL.

Oct 20 - 10 rec 103 yds
Oct 30 - 12 rec 159 yds 1 TD
Nov 6 - 4 rec 36 yds 1 TD (The Midget left early due to a strained vag)
Nov 13 - 10 rec 98 yds
Nov 21 - 9 rec 91 yds
Nov 27 - 4 rec 81 yds 1 TD
Dec 12 - 7 rec 79 yds
Dec 18 - 7 rec 60 yds

And that's with the resting bitch face midget, Colt McCoy, and Trace "marty" McSorley throwing to him.

Don't kid yourself, he's still got plenty of gas left in the tank.

****ing no.

No more old people

Mecca 03-01-2023 03:31 PM

There's a reason that if we made this move all of the other fans would like mother ****er! and complain.

The lesson from Tyreek isn't don't pay good WR's.

What they did was very specific to Hill at 30 million. They did not want to do that and Hill had trade value back.

Each situation has to be looked at on its own.

Gravedigger 03-01-2023 03:36 PM

Even in his prime years with the Texans, I didn't want him. So many receivers are built around hype that when it's time to have sustained success, they fall off a cliff. I'm sure he has gas left in the tank, and would play better with Patrick and Reid than he has in years, but I'm not sure it'd be enough.
