It's one thing if he doesn't wanna give up something substantial like a first or 2nd round pick. But if he is trying to offer up a 5th or 6th and all it will take is a 4th. And he doesn't do it. That would be inexcusable in my opinion
What would irritate me is, if Dhop gets traded to the Chiefs or somewhere for a 4th rounder and we backed out of something like that. I hope this isn't some nickle and diming thing where we won't go past like a 5th and lose out because of it
I think it's a mix of both, compensation and the fact that the team trading for him wants them to eat about half of his salary and the Cardinals are refusing
Although this is a short term option obviously, could this be a signal that Oliver could be getting traded? They both play the same position. Just a thought
Ian Rapaport who is as full proof as you can get just said 3 days ago that talks were heating up and now "no one else is interested"? Come on man. A trade is gonna happen. It might not be to the Bills or Chiefs but that is complete nonsense
He's gonna go somewhere. It's either us or the Chiefs. This is being dragged out for them to. Do you think their fans are saying the same thing? I don't think Beane bails on this one as long as the Chiefs are in it. I don't think he let's that happen. This doesn't mean Hopkins doesn't want to come here either. It could be the Cardinals don't wanna eat any of his salary which makes it more difficult for both us and the Chiefs since we are both cash strapped.
But it usually doesn't have this much teeth to it. It's usually reported by a few people and then dies off quickly. This seems as legit as possible. It's literally being reported everywhere and hasn't stopped
