twslhs20 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 The Lions lead the league in dropped passes Hock has 7 and that was in late Sep. Guess that was why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Vikings are only on the hook for his pro-rated base salary this season. So he'll only count $536K against the cap. That's awesome. We could create cap space elsewhere and sign a FA like OBJ or trade for another rookie contract guy like Claypool. Yeah, I’m big on Claypool. With Hockenson, that would be an ideal scenario, imo.

Sad People Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Loved this trade when i first saw it. Love it even more now considering were getting picks back. Bravo Kwesi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 This should mean they won't have to look at the draft for a TE right? I like that Kwesi is willing to work with the division rivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Does this happen if Smith wasn't injured? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Michael David Smith@MichaelDavSmith The multi-decade rebuilding cycle for the Lions alternates between telling the fans they have to be patient because they have good players who just need time to develop, and telling fans they have to be patient because they traded away those players for draft picks. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that Kwesi is willing to work with the division rivals As long as he meshes in with the team well, then yes. It certainly at least gives them options.

I think it's a factor, but it may have happened regardless since Irv isn't under contract next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it certainly means they won't be looking to draft one this year. What will be interesting is whether they try to extend him after this season. The sample size with the team will be small. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 TJ Hockenson can be every bit what George Kittle is in SF. This is a win now move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 This move should also answer any questions people have had regarding whether or not O’Connell’s vision for his offense involved the tight end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
