I’m good with that. it’s already been reported they aren’t going to get the 2nd + that they wanted. It’ll be closer to the 5th + 6th that Cooks went for. I say have them retain a lot of $ and give em Oliver + 3rd and maybe toss in a late rounder

So your looking at a 4th at the absolute max. 1

I mean I’ll gladly do it. Just would be shocked. In fact that’s probably a hold up if there is one. Discussions of teams offering a 2nd; would Nuke go to that team? Etc.

K D Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 It seems unlikely they would do this after already signing Harty and Sherfield. They also still have Shakir. If they got Hopkins it was because they already decided not to extend Gabe Davis so at that point why not trade him? Giants would probably give us a solid draft pick for him. Sherfield would be the #3 guy then which makes sense, same role as Miami. And to the people saying it would cost the Bills a high draft pick for Hopkins... absolutely not. It would likely be like a 3rd or 4th rounder which they could get for Gabe as he is on his rookie deal 1

He hasn’t had real strong QB play since Watson Edited March 23, 2023 by Warriorspikes51 2
Milanos Milano Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 This is it Beane!! Your chance to cement your legacy in Bills lore forever. The perfect time to make such a move. Land Hopkins and I will take back all the bad things I said about you. 1
Nelius Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Should not take a 1st but Hopkins is on a different tier than perennial very good but never amazing Brandin Cooks. Hopkins was on the fast track to all-time elite status up until about 2 years ago. People underrate Nuk and seem to think he's lost a step, but I also think people tend to overrate an always serviceable Brandin Cooks. Diggs-Hopkins would be the best tandem in the league. Yes, even over Cincy. 2

I don't see how all of those guys see the field 1

He can make an immediate impact…while learning from Diggs and Hop If not, Davis is a very good WR 3 and seemed to be most effective when rotating in and seeing time in the slot

He heard Bills interest and wanted to have some fun trolling fans or 2.) He knows he’s about to be traded to Buffalo He doesn’t have to be “trolling” anyone. He’s heard that Bills are interested and is just promoting the idea because he wants out of Arizona. What does he care if people read into it too much? 2
