IgotBILLStopay Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I'd gladly trade a first for a second for an extra 54 mill cap room - Diggs deal and especially his contract rework looking golden. WTG Beaner, btw, Houston fans just a wee bit less upset with Bill O'Brien now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racketmaster Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Want to know part of the reason why the Texans got less In return for Hopkins than Vikings did for Diggs, $. That is qb type money for a wr and teams likely knew that Hopkins was looking to get paid top dollar and scared a lot of teams away. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 So not to be that guy but...... Diggs is on a REALLY Team friendly contract......I wonder if after this year there start to be rumblings by him and his camp on a new deal. And I love that we brought in Diggs and was calling for it LOOONG before it happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet there is a lot of grumbling around the league this morning at the position, that if Hopkins is worth 27, they are worth <fill in the amount>. 2 minutes ago, Chandler#81 said: So shortening the field width by a 3rd is a bad thing?😳🤔 How does one CB cover a 1/3 of the field?

Given the decline in the cap, however, they have a fair argument to push it out further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really though. I looked at the contract, and Chris Brown said it as well just now. $3.2 mil. this year, about $15 mil. on his 5th year option as I wasn’t sure if that counted so the $70 mil. all added together over 6 years is an average of $14.66 mil./yr. through 2025. He’ll be 30 and his contract will be beat by so many other CB’s it’s not even funny. This was a great deal for TW, and possibly Milano. If Milano takes $13 mil./yr. so $52 mil., but add his last rookie year, it’s only $10.8 mil. That’s not bad at all. Lock up Beane and we are onto Edmunds next year, and Allen if it all works out in a couple of years. Get ready for a team staying together and building on success year over year. Someday, we could be the next Seahawks. Not going to say Steelers as they have 50 years of history of success, but the Hawks sucked before Wilson, or at least were flashy as they did make the SB when they were robbed before Wilson.
