And this helps the value of their player? Uh, I would think WR's might get cut after the draft and teams don't have to trade for Hopkins. They'll either have drafted one or can wait to see who shakes loose.

It's a theory; obviously I don't have inside information about what ARI is really doing. But that theory posed the idea that ARI would wait until the draft to see if certain teams would adjust/augment their offers based on how their drafts went. It seems possible just based on how they've stood firm on their demands so far.
I mean, to this point, no teams have agreed to give ARI what they're demanding, right? It looks like several teams have bid less. So, if you're ARI FO waiting until the draft could be worth waiting for, to see if any teams change their minds about how valuable DHop would be to them if things don't go well for them in the first round of the draft.
Or, and I just remembered this was an option mentioned, let's say there's a team that got exactly what they wanted in the first round. But now they have a need at WR, but they don't think they can get a good one in the 2nd round because they aren't picking high enough. They could be in the market at that point to trade their 2nd round pick for DHop.
Again, it's a theory out there.
