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?

Let him go to Buffalo and then watch Diggs implode when he loses targets.

Wondering if the Buffalo stories are Arizona trying to push KC for higher pick?

[jerryaldini]

Yes the chiefs have been pushing the issue including trying to work a contract. Is it to push the Bills value up or actually acquire him? we’ll have to find out soon

It's working guys! Keep posting! We're doing it!

Update: #Cardinals have made calls out to other teams regarding trading away WR DeAndre Hopkins, but NFL teams view it as a "salary dump" by Arizona which reduces their trade offers for him.

The #Patriots don't plan to pursue him, source tells @jeffphowehttps://t.co/izDe4kkBCk pic.twitter.com/PtYk4fzVxW

Feels like it would be the opposite, I mean, seriously? Diggs AND Hopkins? There's not enough balls to go around in Buffalo IMO.

Bills are not in it in my opinion. They are just ****ing with Chiefs

Yeah but it has the officials seal of Erie County. I visited Erie county. I've never seen so many pasty white people. It's an interesting mix of Steelers, bills and browns fans. It's like the Jerusalem of rust belt football.

Update: The #Ravens are signing former #Eagles 1st round pick, WR Nelson Agholor, per @Schultz_Report

Nelson also played for the #Patriots and #Raiders pic.twitter.com/8jrJkblfRP

Yeah, after finally realizing the great defense that the GM and coach cooked up after 6 years is nothing but a playoff loser, why not make a call hoping KC has to give a higher pick.

I think we're literally the only team left for Hopkins to go to lol.

Accept your fate! SB Champ! Let's go!

It's also unusual to try to build a team with two expensive receivers, but I assume they can fix the financial part with AZ eating some and deferring salary.

pretty much just trying to drive the price up...

I think the Cardinals have a deal Veach has offered.. But its not what they were hoping for. So they are putting out fud and other teams are to try to get Veach to up the offer.

But I don't think the Cardinals have another viable trading partner. And I think Veach knows his offer is the best... So now they are playing a cat and mouse game.
