ColoradoBills Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 42 minutes ago, Reed83HOF said: Just going to talk about a trade (not Hopkins specific). NE would acquire a lot of players who were cap casualties. They'd give up 3rd through 6's for players and usually have comp picks in those years to offset the trades not hurting the draft.. Then they use the guys for a couple years and move on, acquiring more comp picks when they hit FA along with some of the guys they just let walk in FA. Us Bills fans complained for all those years about the "rich getting richer". I'm not saying it will happen this year with the Bills, but I can see rolling a pick or 2 in trades in the future acquiring guys on shorter contract lengths with no (or next to none) dead cap. It's not a bad strategy. I know I may get hammered for saying this, but I think it's better in a lot of instances than signing big money older player like Von, who demands a lot of dead cap and longer contracts.

He cares about winning. When we are losing, and the offense has stalled, and we arent throwing to him, THEN he says "put it on my back, I GOT YOU". Having Nuk out there just opens Diggs more, and makes our offense better. 2 2 1 1

TOboy Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 You guys had me worried about the Chargers entering the field for a minute there (which makes no sense)! Can now go back to panic level 8 after topping out at 10.

If they’re in , they will… There was not this drawn out will they wont they trade for him. I was on here. No threads were made until reports of Buffalo finalizing a trade for diggs.

Mat68 Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Based off the levers in his contract does Hopkins want a raise? Converting his 19.5 to 4.5 is very doable.

Converting his 19.5 to 4.5 is very doable. That's how I remember the Diggs trade too. Catching us by a bit of a surprise a year after it had last been mentioned. Although, I think it was easier to keep the Diggs trade under wraps since the player wasnt involved. Hopkins I'd think has a trade clause, and even if not, I'm sure the new team would want an agreement on a restructure. So a couple reasons for him to be in the know, and able to troll fans on social media.
Warriorspikes51 Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) Offer them Oliver, 2024 3rd and 6th they retain 9 Million. $ is a wash this year. We restructure / extend If we wanted to really gun for it: convert the base to a bonus and you’ve actually gained cap space for this year…. Edited March 23, 2023 by Warriorspikes51 1 1 2
