I'm more poking fun at the reality that any numbskull who tweets something gets taken as an 'insider' and that 'there's just too much smoke here to be a rumor' and next thing you know, everyone's all in a frenzy.
A few weeks ago, half of CP wanted Kliff ****ing Kingsbury as OC, for ****'s sake.
KC has literally been linked to every single known name in FA, and it's silly.
Hopkins is the exact opposite of every single thing we've done for three years now. But yeah, okay, let's just run with it. He's too old, he's not finished a season since 2020, and he's expensive. So, I'm sure Veach is in talks to send a 2nd and back up a truck of money.
A cheap Thielen deal or taking a flier on Parris Campbell and figuring Andy can figure out how to utilize that 4.3 speed is much more likely.
You guys are cracking me up.
Who's the last big money guy over 30 that Veach has signed? I'll wait.

Veach has had the hots for OBJ, what, 2 seasons running now? It's not like this was pulled from thin air. So while correct, this isn't a typical Veach move, it doesn't mean it's not on his radar and he's shown enough interest to where you can't just hand wave it off like it's something he'll never do.
I agree with some of your points here, though. Yeah, we're linked to every big name reclamation F/A out there and always will be because we're the new Patriots.
If the Chiefs sign Chark, Theilen or Campbell, ok...cool. I think all 3 of those guys can add to the room.
What i have a problem with is this mindset that you just repeated. "Sign a cheap guy and let Reid figure it out".
Lol. How about sign a special player and THEN let Reid figure it out?
