The Bills must focus their resources now on both protecting their star player, Allen, and giving him an offense and coordinator capable of utilizing all of the field. A few months ago I wanted Hopkins, but now I think it would be almost pointless to do so and to once again divert resources from dramatically improving the weakest link on this team, the offensive line. You’re assuming they are interested in this dramatic improvement … from their actions over the past few seasons, it seems they’re more interested in plugging in journeymen and JAGs 1 Quote

Augie Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 I don’t understand how people can have an opinion without knowing the financial side of things. Are we paying what is due on his contract? No thank you. How much can we get his cap number down? How much will the Cardinals pay? What does a restructure look like? Only then can I determine how I feel about it. 2 1 Quote

Don Otreply Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 I voted yes, but only if New England doesn’t get a comp pick out of it… 2 1 Quote

OldTimer1960 Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) Hopkins will be 31 before training camp, has bee recently injured, recently suspended for steroids, and carries a big cap value. If it was just a late 2nd in this weaker draft, fine, but the cap $ would have a ripple effect. For those reasons, I am not interested unless he comes very cheaply (pay cut - not interested in extending a 31 year old WR beyond the 2 years already on his contract).

The cap hit is close to a deal breaker unless AZ eats a lot contract. I think it is more likely Beane trades up for Addison. Quote

I think it is more likely Beane trades up for Addison. I don’t even think I’d be willing to trade up for Addison. If he is available at 27, then OK, but trading extra assts to get a 170lb WR would not be smart, in my view. Quote
Simon Says Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 You assume Arizona will eat most of the money? I doubt it. 24 2 seasons of Hopkins ( for 34 million?) vs what,6 or 7 million over 4 years for a 2nd pick. ? Quote

That's No Moon Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 Yup. In a heartbeat. Especially the way this team spends 2nd round picks. Quote
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 If they're asking for a 2nd, likely could get it down to a 3rd and maybe throw in a 5th or something. Recall reading a month or 2 back that after some other WR was traded, don't recall who, Cardinals price likely dropped. Quote
