And Shorter should push Davis for snaps and playing time.

Wait, are we talking Gabe?  Gabe Davis?  Shorter is going to be pushing our #2 for PT?!  I love the optimism but the only thing our rookie 5th rounder will be pushing for is surviving cutdown day as #6 WR on the depth chart.  imho

“In four games with Kyler Murray last season,

 

Hopkins had 30 receptions, 385 yards, 3 TDs.

 

That's a 17 game pace of...

 

128 receptions, 1636 yards, 13 TDs”

 

- Joe D from WGR

BUT... that was Kyler Murray throwing to him, not Josh Allen.


Wait..

You’re saying it without thinking you’re saying it. If teams don’t want to pay him as a WR1 then what do you think teams think he is?

 

Baltimore could’ve easily fit Hopkins back at the start of the new year and then restructured his contract.

 

It’s obvious teams don’t view him as a WR1 anymore. He’ll get WR2 money, which is why he was cut not traded.


Agree to disagree on this one.  All good either way

If DH goes to the Pats he’s either an idiot or a genius 😉

 

...getting way more guaranteed money than anyone else was willing to offer.

There is no way he ends up back with Bill O’Brian after what happened in Houston. I think the Patriots are out.

not only the manner in which he got dealt, but basically alluding to him being ghetto is how i remember it

I think I’m becoming a grumpy old man (I’m actually really happy). But I despise the social media teenage girl posts and begging to come to our team. I think it’s kinda pathetic and sad. 
 

that said, if it works, keep it up bills fans.

This would be an indictment on Schoen if true.


Injury concerns and attitude problems since he was at Florida.  

 

His talent is undeniable. 
 

If he hits, he hits … the type of player KC takes chances on.

Yup. I loved watching Toney and Pitts at Florida that year. What a fun offense. I knew Toney was legit. It didn't seem like he could get on the field with the Giants and the rumor was he was injured but the Giants felt he could play. Then he was a little bit made of glass in the stint with KC, although he did perform well at critical moments. In his career he's had 37 chances at starting, he ended up only starting 9 times. He was available to start 22 times. So even when he was available he started less than 50% of the time. He reminds me so much of Percy Harvin.

I mean…you can’t deny the talent that Toney has always had.  His issues have been availability.  It does make you wonder how an offensive mind like Brian Daboll had no use for him.  
 

Still, I don’t think he’ll ever get close to a WR1 level.  I do think he can be a high-end gadget type player and that Reid is smart enough to find creative ways to utilize his speed.

In the 5 games without Murray he had 34 rec for 332 yards. Still on pace for over 100 rec and over 1000 yards with Colt McCoy, Trace McCorsley and David Blough...

Because Daboll is trying to build a culture of winning and apparently Toney did not fit the profile he was looking for. It’s not just been availability with Toney but also attitude and other intangibles.  KC has been willing to gamble on guys like that, but when you are trying to build from the ground up, probably not the best bet.  (See Watkins, Sammy)
