No disrespect, but there is so much over exaggerated or even inaccurate in this post that I don't have the time to respond to it all. So just gonna casually walk by this one.

Then why has his YPC significantly declined for the past 2 seasons? He went from 5.0 to 4.3 once his OL started declining.

It’s amazing how many inaccurate and bad takes are in her about Hopkins by people who are ill-informed. “He's ancient” - He is only 6 months older than Diggs who we just gave a huge extension to last year that all of you loved. “He can’t stay healthy” - He’s had one injury in his whole career that made him miss time. 2021. Prior to that he combined to miss 2 other games only the rest of his career due to injury. “He’s washed” - He only played 9 games (due to suspension, not injury) in 2022. He had Murray for 5 games plus 2nd and 3rd string QBs the other 4. Yet his stats still project out to 120 receptions and almost 1400 yards over a full season. So many bad takes on Hopkins by the OP and several other posters who clearly don’t know as much about Hopkins as they think they do. Meanwhile: Davis isn’t even top 5 WR in his own division.

This might be the dumbest attempt at a LAMP troll thread I’ve seen in a long time. Why waste everyone’s time? This is the kind of thread that reduces the need to read anything else you’re gonna post in any other thread. It’s that bad. Good luck with that.

Those cap hit numbers are not accurate and are quite a bit lower as the new team only takes on the salary. Henry cap hit to new team is $10M in 2023 Hopkins cap hit to new team is $19.4M in 2023 That being said, it doesn't change the fact if either was to come here it would also include a restructure of some sort. Nobody is under the assumption we would trade for either with their current contract cap numbers.

Shocked you would be in this thread opposing something positive someone said about the team... ...said no one ever.

I really don't get what you are sarcastically trying to imply here other than it seems you are suggesting Hopkins won't stay on the field. And if that is what you are saying, that it's just not an accurate description of Hopkins at all given he has had one injury where he missed time in his whole career, in 2021. Prior to that, he missed a total of 2 games the rest of his career. He came back last year and played half a season, where he caught passes from Murray for only 5 games and then scrubs the rest of the games put up numbers that would be 120 reception and almost 1400 yards over a full season. So, unless I am wrong that you are implying he can't stay healthy, I don't really know how you get to these assumptions as there isn't any evidence to support it.

I would bring them both back. And if we only could choose 1, then I would bring Shaq back as he was playing pretty good in his role last year. Now that Jamaal is off the board, I would turn my focus to Hunt, Foreman, and Mattison. Any of those 3 would be nice pickups for us. I think Hunt is the most talented of them though and still only 27.

There is almost no chance Bijan gets to 26. I have no idea why so many people think he is falling that far, he might even go top 10. But he was never going to get to the Bills at 27 once he ran at the combine and silenced concerns about his speed. Bills fan need to forget about Bijan, its just wishful thinking unless the Bills move up in the draft to get him, which I highly doubt we would do for a RB. If by some miracle he does fall, then Beane can sprint to the podium.

Damn, I would have taken him at that price in a heart beat

This was what I was expecting, I like the signing based on what was out there.

And why would you say that?

I bet he goes higher now after that showing, as results like this can make teams drool at their potential if they can mold them as a player

Personally, I would have kept Meyers over JuJu for the same price dollar for dollar essentially.

This. #27 for Jeudy is just too much, and #27 plus something else is ridiculous. But if we get a good pick back with Jeudy, then sure sending the 27th pick starts to make sense. But you hit the nail on the head here, Jeudy has not lived up to his draft hype on the field. People blame the QB, but that doesn't excuse the drops and inconsistency catching passes. Any trade for Jeudy would be a speculative move on unrealized potential, not about on field excellence. I do not want to over pay for a guy we have to hope turns it up a notch here. We already have a WR we hope turns it around next year in Davis as it is. I would be excited to see someone like Jeudy added, don't get me wrong. But for me, it needs to be at a better price than Denvers reported "at least a first or more" for him. I mean that is what a proven stud in AJ Brown got traded for essentially. Jeudy hasn't shown anything close to what AJ Brown had shown when he went for more than first round pick. Even DeAndre Hopkins got traded for a 2nd round pick when he was considered a top 3, if not the best, WR in the NFL. Based on what Jeudy has done on the field, IMHO is really worth a 3rd, but according to reports that wouldn't get the deal done. But maybe a 2nd gets the deal done, and that is more palatable than our first. Or, like you said, send our first but get back a good pick with Jeudy so its more of a trade down scenario. If Jeudy got to reenter the draft this year, there are several guys who could be there at 27 who I would take over him.

I can not believe that’s all he signed for and we weren’t in on it. Young player with a real chance to break out now that he’s out from under the other 2 stud LBs in SF. He was my top target at LB. But hopefully we land Wagner or David.

He won’t have to wait on the ball to get there when it’s coming from Josh Allen as that would have been an easy TD

You guys just always take the most negative angle in every topic. Just don’t get the obsession with that. No one is looking at this signing as some magic pill to solve our issues, but this need to go all sky is falling over it makes no sense.

Ok that was funny 👏 nice

Do you find it interesting that most often the only people that ever agrees with you is posters like Einstein and you’re most often the only the person that ever agrees with him? Should tell you something…although I don’t expect you will correctly identify the something:

No…no he’s not. He’s definitely not better than this. This is always his posting theme…doom and gloom, everything the Bills do is wrong. Yet I can’t recall anything I’ve ever seen him post be right.

Love this! Coming back in a reasonable I assume which was the best case scenario.

Gabe Davis in 3 full seasons has three 100 yard games. Hopkins in 1 full season and 2 half seasons the last 3 years has nine 100 yard games and would have had several more if Murray didn’t tear his ACL this year. Someone shoot this thread, put it out of its misery and bury it in the back yard to never be spoken of again.

Jokes are different though, this would kind of be like a slight to Davis, especially if it’s someone taking Davis job in terms of the #2 target for Allen.

Deebo is a great player, love watching him play as my wife is a hard core niner fan. But he’s not necessarily a “great” WR and many Niners fans see Aiyuk as the better pure WR when they need a play downfield. He is a fantastic weapon though as he is a nightmare with YAC and also dangerous running the ball. But he specializes in short throws where he makes plays more than a downfield threat. He isn’t the most polished route runner and doesn’t have the most reliable hands further down field. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love Deebo on our team, so not a knock on him. But just comparing receiving ability, Hopkins is better.
