I’d love Hopkins on the Chargers but that price tag is going to be steeper than the value we’d get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 When is the last time someone said they wanted to go to Jacksonville? As long as he's out of the NFC West that's great. Ravens, Chargers, and Jaguars would be great choices for him. At age 30 he can still have a few more quality seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamq Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) If Geno flounders against SF this weekend are they really going to bring him back? At 5 they would have to trade up for one of the 2 qbs, could they go with a Derek Carr instead, add to the defense at 5 and take a QB later on?

I think that bringing him back would be the primary goal, but i don't think that they will marry themselves to it or anything. Going from Geno to Carr probably stabilizes the positions somewhat since he has a longer track record of what to expect, but it's also a little "rearranging deck chairs on the titanic" to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Patriots, Bears, Packers, Giants, and Ravens should all be inquiring about Hopkins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other then the Packers with Aaron Rodgers. Do you see DHop wanting to end his career being thrown to by Jones, Fields, Danny and Lamar? Not exactly passing juggernauts there?

Do you see DHop wanting to end his career being thrown to by Jones, Fields, Danny and Lamar? Not exactly passing juggernauts there? Couldn't you have made the same argument about AJ Brown and the Eagles last offseason? They were 25th in passing offense a year ago and Jalen clearly had his struggles as a passer. He took a leap this year and Brown lit it up, is it hard to imagine that Danny or Mac could potentially do the same thing under great coaches with a true #1 WR? I could easily see him being open to playing with the Ravens, Giants, or Patriots. Not really sure about the Bears. Lamar obviously isn't the greatest passer but he's still a former MVP that's highly regarded around the league and their offense has shown that it can support productive pass catchers even if it's a run first system. Mark Andrews just had 1,300 yards and Hollywood Brown had 1,000 yards playing with Lamar last year. New England is likely going to change up their staff but Hopkins and Bill have a good relationship/respect for each other. Daboll is also highly respected and made the most out of a very limited offensive group this year, I'm sure Hopkins would be open to playing with him.

D-hop wants out of the AZ dysfunctional mess to go to California or Florida. 👌 He wants a new contract with two years left on his original contract. I’ve lived through this before. Only difference was trading him in his prime vs trading him on the downward trajectory… As far as places to go? Well, that’s obvious - Cleveland. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re projected $8M+ over the cap as is, with Williams/Allen taking up $40M themselves. They can/will do something with Allen and Mack’s numbers, but Herbert will be looking for a deal soon too. Can’t imagine anyone’s able to pay franchise QB money + 3 wide receivers at or over $20M/year. Plus a highly paid pass rusher and highly paid corner… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. AJB coming to the Eagles had almost as much to do with him being best friends with Hurts, already having chemistry, worked out together in offseasons, ect as it did trying to get a legit #1 WR for him to throw to. Outsiders always thought Hurts wasn't the answer , needed to be replaced. I have Zero doubts Sirianni, Howie and Lurie felt the same. They saw his work ethic, leadership skills and desire to get better. Hence the choice to surround him with more talent. AJ is also not in his 30's and on the decline. Hopkins wants to be on a contender, at Ieast I would think? Or he might just be about money? 🤷♂️ Yes all of those teams QB would instantly be better with DHop. Just don't see several as realistic destinations. Edited January 11, 2023 by Nabbs4u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksavage1 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Bills make a lot of sense for D-Hop.

The Ravens provide a chance to win a ring, play in an offense that just supported two productive pass catchers, and be the #1 WR for the former league MVP who is eons more accomplished than Hurts is/was when AJB was traded to Philadelphia. You can't see why that'd be appealing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 49ers are probably the best team in the league and they're extremely hot coming into the playoffs. I don't see why they'd evaluate him based solely on his performance this weekend. He has been extremely good for them this year (8th in yards, 4th in TD, 6th in QBR) do you think that Carr or one of the rookie QB's makes them better next year? Carr is a lateral move AT BEST but considering Geno's knowledge of the system is probably a downgrade. I think they could afford to take a chance on someone like Anthony Richardson with their second 1st round pick. But I don't think it's really a need and can see Geno playing at a high level for another 3-4 seasons. I think Pete is committed to winning now, he doesn't have a ton of time left and a developmental QB doesn't really move the needle for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
