And he isn't deviating from what he is willing to do to get an players involved in any of the plans. We aren't as desperate as people make us out to be.

Meh, I've said from the very beginning that we probably weren't going to get Hopkins, and that we'd likely just sign some JAG possession WR to fill JuJu's role.
Hopkins was always a huge longshot, just from the draft compensation aspect. Even if we offered ARI a 2nd, which Veach was never going to do, I mean really, how valuable is that? The 64th pick? Whoopee. 31 other teams can do better than that.
I think Veach made an offer, knowing that it was a serious longshot, but why not? Couldn't hurt, and maybe he gets a chance at sweetening the pot a touch once the price softened enough. But he never had a great chance at making it happen. Just not enough resources.
