Do we want DeHop?

Story by Andrew Gould




The Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl without a star wide receiver, but they could reportedly make an elite offense even scarier by acquiring DeAndre Hopkins.

NFL insider Benjamin Albright told PHNX Cardinals that Kansas City is the "primary suitor" for Hopkins. He doesn't know the draft compensation the Cardinals would receive, but he said it's more likely they get a second-round pick than a first.

After the 2022 season, theScore's Jordan Schultz reported that the Cardinals plan to trade Hopkins this offseason.

Arizona hired a new general manager and head coach after a disappointing four-win season, and Hopkins is set to make $19.45 million (with a $30.75 million cap hit) in 2023. The Cardinals could seek a clean slate by moving the three-time All-Pro wideout, who turns 31 in June.

Hopkins began his Cardinals career by tallying 1,407 yards and six touchdowns in 2020. However, multiple lower body injuries limited him to 10 games in 2021, and he served a six-game suspension to start the 2022 season for violating the NFL's PED policy.

Yet he remains an impact player when on the field. Hopkins totaled 474 receiving yards in six full games with quarterback Kyler Murray last season.

Now imagine what he can accomplish when catching passes from Patrick Mahomes.

The Chiefs flourished without a star replacement for Tyreek Hill, but they could still benefit by solidifying the position this offseason. JuJu Smith-Schuster is a free agent after garnering 78 catches for 933 yards on a one-year deal. The depth chart features several talented question marks in Mecole Hardman, Kadarius Toney, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Adding Hopkins could be great news for Kansas City, but terrible for all opposing defenses.

Do we want a high priced prima donna?

It is reasonable to assume the CHoefs will draft no higher than 28 in the next 2-3 years? You either get lucky and find a diamond, or you have to trade to find a #1 in the short term. I'm hoping Veach pulls a VEach and trades a 2023 3 and maybe a 2024 #3 since the Chiefs be swimming in compensatories.

Hopkins for a two year rental.

Sign Tyreek on the cheap after he's done treating the Dolphins to a pump-n-dump.

Doesn't sound like we are in the running. At all. Apparently, PacMan Jones is friends with Hopkins....

Source(s) have some DHop information..

Interesting that he mentioned that Dhop was definitely looking to win. that would preclude ATL, NE and LVR right off the bat.

Come on, man. The margin between KC and BUF is razor thin at this point. October proved that.

Whoever gets Hopkins is the AFC favorite, and that is fair. That is objective.

Very nice unbiased take.

It is.

well, this should make us feel better

#Bills Von Miller hitting the links with a 91.

Just shy of 4 months from R ACL reconstruction, can return to golf around now.

Not a golf expert, but asking around, I’m told he looks tight & not placing full weight on R leg.

Still a lot of work to do until football season. pic.twitter.com/LEXfafdmKz

October proved what?

January proved that Buffalo is a fraud. They were curb stomped by the Bengals in their home stadium… the same Cincy team the Chiefs would beat a week later.

This is getting silly.

When the Chiefs and Bills square off next season, the margin will be razor thin once again. For the Chiefs sake I hope the razor isn't cutting their way again, because of Hopkins.

The first team to get the nuke wins the war. Mark these words.

Based on an early regular season game that Buffalo barely won last season?

Is the margin between the Chiefs and the Colts “razor thin” as well since they also beat the Chiefs in an early regular season game last year?

Fact: Buffalo collapsed and were exposed as overrated frauds in the playoffs.

Hopkins will do no more to help a turnover prone choker in Josh Allen than he did with a similar loser QB in Kyler Murray.

What's getting silly is coming into a Hopkins thread and seeing Von Miller golf tweets with a Chiefs fan blowing the Bills?

Please .

[ARROW2]

Same shit every year. It's funny. They are all gonna have to DEAL WITH THE CHIEFS!! regardless.

[MahomesMagic]

Buffalo pretenders will be named preseason SB Champions again if they acquire DHop.

[Couch-Potato]

have we reached the post count to make a Hopkins trade happen yet?

Bengals with OBJ & Buffalo with Hopkins does not sound like a good offseason for us no matter who we bring in.

I mean, I really don’t agree that buffalo is closing the gap on us and DHop seals the deal. But at the very least Indy is an example of why we can’t be content on offense. I don’t think people are processing how stuck our offense looked at times last year for way longer stretches than we’re used to.

Of course we deserved to win last year but it was also a year where we had a LOT of good bounces. One extra loss would’ve costed us a bye and maybe forced us to play buffalo and cincy back to back weeks. That includes games where we lucked into facing malik willis, bryce Perkins, and had Brett rypien close out a close game. That includes us winning the conference out of a forfeit technicality. So yeah, even if I don’t agree with hyping up buffalo, I also don’t think your point is wrong that our advantage is more razor thin in many cases than it looks on paper. And it doesn’t have to be that way.
