Have you seen any hint of a decline?

 

Yes, Hill struggled in a few games in the back half of the season and there were games where he wasn't really a factor at all. He'll still likely be great, but towards the end of the year.. he will be banged up and less effective. Sound familiar?

That's not how that works

 

Totally could have done that. Wonder if Beane sent in an offer

I'm shocked he got so little.

He was playing hurt. He's one of the top 2 WRs in football.

To be fair … no…

 

But when you are dependent on that electric speed… and  not much else… I think Hill could decline quick 

There is a difference between fast players losing a step... And world class speed losing a step

 

Unless he has terrible lower body injuries... He's going to be able to maintain top notch NFL speed till he's 32-33

 

He's built like an Olympic sprinter and those guys can run till 30s

 

Losing a step he'll still go from 4.3 to 4.46 lol still fast af

*****.  Hopefully Von gets it together and we don't miss him.  This one sucks because of the cap.  That's a solid deal for him and I would've had no issues paying him that if we had the money.


I would.  He completely fell off towards the end of the season.

Once your in your 30’s hamstrings are a b!?$h.  He’s not running straight go routes like sprinters.

No ... But speedsters like Don Beebe.. and James lofton

 

And DeSean Jackson... All kept their speed until they're 30s

 

And none were as fast as hill

He's only 31, I would have gladly done the 2 year, $20 million

Gotta get younger as a team and spend less on the defensive line

 

Floyd was never in this team's plans beyond last season

I’ll say he has two years max as a Top 10 receiver

Didn’t DeSean have hamstring problems late in his career?  Beebe and Loftin were straight line speedsters.  They weren’t catching a 2 yard slant juking 7 DBs/LBs and taking it 80 yards to the house.

Yea, that's what happens when players get old. They get hurt more easily and take longer to recover. Glad you figured that one out finally.

Or they just get hurt because they get hit hard, which is what happened. Football is a rough game. Hopefully you'll figure that one out someday.
