You want and need draft currency asap and next year picks do nothing, next year picks come in after a June 1 trade. can’t see it happening Yeah I hear what u are saying. The fans on that board tho seemed like they and the gm weren't worried about picks in '23. Not sure how it comes to that conclusion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we have now is what it's going to be, likely with a couple draft picks added into the mix. What's your preference for adding a true WR2? Right now the available options are Hopkins for Arizona's asking price, Jerry Jeudy for a 1st, or OBJ for whatever salary he's asking for. If reports are true that OBJ wants to play with Aaron Rodgers on the Jets that gives us just Hopkins and Jeudy as the available options. Unless you have someone else in mind? I would prefer jeudy and using some Beane majic to make that happen Hopkins is s short term solution, but a viable one no to OBJ unless he is cheap and we can dump him in a year or two. I am nervous about those injuries. And i dislike him muchly LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) Pick one going in to the 2023 season: Hopkins Whatever pick 27 will be You’d take Hopkins all day. Obviously try to get him for less but if that’s what the Cardinals want I’m doing it. Doing that means much more to your aging vets in a win now mode then trusting the process with your 27th pick overall that will likely need 1 year to develop. So don’t scoff at trading 27. It should be available for ANY player that adds elite talent to this team right now. Edited March 25, 2023 by Big Blitz 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too high a probability compared to the last 4 years with how tough the division is going to be we might not make the playoffs - odds of that are higher. We could be picking in the top 15-20 next year. Going in to last year zero doubt we were winning the division which is why our 2023 1st should have been on the table for a deal like we’re trying to make one year too late.

If reports are true that OBJ wants to play with Aaron Rodgers on the Jets that gives us just Hopkins and Jeudy as the available options. Unless you have someone else in mind? I believe Risner is still available? We could add him for less than the cap hit for Hopkins and still have our draft picks. I'm not really hight on OBJ, but again, could probably get him and still keep our picks. It may cost a 1st for Juedy, but he still has a year on his rookie deal if I remember correctly and he is probably better wr than what would be available in the draft to us.🤔 I was thinking Chark, but that option sailed. Personally, if I were Beane, I'd also reach out to the Colts and see if they are willing to part ways with Pittman. Seeing they were thinking of trading him to move up. MAYBE, there is something there? New regime, last year of his rookie deal and they got Pierce last draft. Maybe they could use an extra pick to move up to secure a qb (not get jumped), or maybe the new coach's flexibility with a new scheme? Just thinking outside the box here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over in another thread, I was defending you as actually a rational human being (don't make me regret it.) You can't really anticipate the future. Someone might get hurt, for example. But yes, I agree they are a formidable pair. I'm not sure AZ really wants to trade him. You can put an unrealistic price tag if what you really want is to say "we tried" and keep the fella. I wouldn't call their bluff by paying even more. Wait them out and get him for a fair price, especially if it involves taking on the full salary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren’t trading for 2018 D Hop D Hop last 2 years - 10 games and 9 games. Last year he averaged 79.7 ypg, which is just a bit better than his career average of 77.9 or his Zona average of 77 (but down a bit from 78.2 in HOU) The question comes down to the injury history etc. In 2021, he was bothered by a series of nagging injuries - ribs, hamstring, and then finally an MCL tear. Last season, he missed the first 6 games because he was suspended for PED use, then was injured again and did not play in the last 2 games due to a "grade 1 knee sprain" (grade 1 means no tearing) - whether he could have gone if the games meant something, we won't know. But, he'll also be 32, an age when the length of the football season takes its toll and injuries start to mount. If anyone is interested, Draft Sharks gives his injury history, and calculates his chance of an injury at 58% for next season, with the projection he'll miss 3 games. https://www.draftsharks.com/fantasy/injury-history/deandre-hopkins/6679 The new guy a lot of folks are enthusiastic about has recurring hammy problems, btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
