On a recent appearance on the “I Am Athlete” podcast, free-agent WR DeAndre Hopkins listed the five QBs he’d most like to catch passes from: the Bills’ Josh Allen, the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts, the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes, the Ravens’ Lamar Jackson and the Chargers’ Justin Herbert.

Might be one of the Florida teams. No state income tax sometimes plays into it.

Great talent but it is kind of concerning that multiple organizations now have chosen to move on with little to no compensation. I realize Houston and Arizona aren't exactly model organizations but still. Kind of reminds me of Antonio Brown; all the talent in the world but multiple teams quickly deciding its not worth the hassle.

There aren't any reports of nutbag behavior like TO or Brown.

Hopkins is just expensive and not 100% of the time worth the price tag. Given his contract, I can understand the Cardinals cutting him. Not tradeable and detrimental to the cap long term.

Oh poo

Do we not have the most remaining cap space in the league  and a no obvious #1 WR??

2nd highest remaining cap space. But I doubt Hopkins wants to play with a rookie QB and new coaching staff 🤔

Make it happen!

 

We have to overpay if he comes here, otherwise if contenders are offering anywhere close he will just sign with the better teams.

 

How much are we willing to overpay is the question?

These arguments get old. Same as the "X area is better than Y area!" We don't know what the personal motivations for most od these guys are. It might be family, taxes, area, who fuging knows?

We can guess the football reasons but speculation on people's personal motivations seems very useless.

No chance, none of the Florida teams make any sense.

Dolphins have Tyreek and Waddle, Bucs have Evans and Godwin, Jags have Ridley and Kirk.

I think most likely situation is that he signs a cheap 1 year deal with KC to try and win a SB with Mahomes and then goes for a bigger contract next summer.  At which point, if Bryce has a good rookie season, we would make a lot of sense for him to come back home and take Chark's roster spot.

He doesn’t want to play with a rookie qb he just stated that in a recent podcast with B Marshall no way he doesn’t goto a perennial contender. 

Until we offer him the most money.

 

Talk is cheap this will be about the most money this is likely his last big contract and he has 10 kids to feed!

 

If we overpay I think he would come here.

I'd love to have Nuke but before we go there we need to get a edge. That's a bigger hole right now I think. If we can get a Floyd or Houston and Nuke, I'd be really happy but I don't see it happening unfortunately. 

I want to go all in on supporting our young QB that we've mortgaged the future of the franchise in the near to mid-term to trade up to get.

It's not just about trying to compete this year IMO.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      By PadresPanthersFan · Posted

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
