Will DeAndre Hopkins be available this offseason?

[Warriorspikes51]

If we come out of the draft with Hopkins + another weapon….whether that be a WR or TE in first 3 rounds….that would be very solid

How about Hopkins and Bijan Robinson? That would make our offense very scary.

more like cap room

Always have cap room.

[benderbender]

Do we really want DeAndre? Or are we just scared of what other team will get him?

[Buffalo_Stampede]

Bills can have Hopkins for like $4 million cap hit with his current contract.

DeAndre Hopkins indicates willingness to play for Chiefs or Bills, not Jets or Patriots

Def want him are you kidding me trying to defend diggs and dhop would be a nightmare for every defense we face. Plus with the other pieces we’ve added it would be crazy in my opinion

I’m worried the Bengals end up with Bijan and Hopkins with KC yes.

That's an oversimplification. We can get his cap hit significantly lower this season. But it would involve spreading out hits over 4 years, including 3 years of cap hits when he's no longer on the team while still paying him significantly next season as well.

That's good to know. But is Nuk willing to take less? Because his current contract is a problem in and of itself.

Really? I see about 12 guys I’d be pretty excited about. Including a few in the mid and late rounds

Worst WR class since the Lincoln administration.

[78thealltimegreat]

It’s obvious he’d love to play here as Arizona is in firesale mode looking for culture guys to fit the new coaches vision for the team…but this ain’t happening till draft night if it does at all

If the contract is a problem then they shouldn't be adding useless defensive players, they should be gutting the defense. Just score a million points and get turnovers because Von Miller. Way better than what they've been doing using every offseason to try to be perfect on defense.

What's done is done though. You can argue that they should have spent less on Defense. But you can't undo the situation we're in cap wise. Right now, his contract doesn't work. If it did, it would have been done by now.

 

It's nice that Hopkins likes us and wants to be here. But it doesn't change the situation we're in and everything over the past few weeks pointing to or outwardly saying we can't do it.

It lacks top 5 Calvin Johnson type prospects and isn't particularly deep. But to say there's no good WR prospects in this Draft is simply wrong.

yep and in 3 years from now, everyone will grab their crystal ball and say "we should of grabbed one of those WR's" does not matter if its a crap WR draft. You keep trying. Diggs not getting any younger...

If the contract is an issue then they shouldn't have signed Poyer, they shouldn't have signed Klein, and if they had to make a cut or two then so be it.

 

They've put trash talent around Josh Allen. It is more important to surround that young man with talent than it is to have the perfect defense that lets us down against KC/CIN anyway. 

 

The rules are set up for offense to win out and the Bills struggle against it rather than embracing it even while having the best quarterback in the world.
