Sources: #Titans WR DeAndre Hopkins is being traded to the #Chiefs in exchange for a 5th rounder that can get to a fourth rounder. Deal is being finalized.

A key veteran who could be the final piece, Hopkins name has been hot in the trade market. Now, he lands with the champs. pic.twitter.com/GRvRbUwux6

I don't mean for football reasons - I just feel so bad for the guy. He was a great player, great teammate and just fantastic dude. Really good story and everything you'd want to see happen to guys in this league.

And he had to play for that shit-house franchise to get paid? Poor dude. He absolutely, unquestionably deserved to get paid. I just hate that he had to go to that hellscape to make it happen.
Meh, he could've chosen to be slightly less filthy rich and stayed in KC, instead of signing with a team everyone knew would be a dumpster fire. I have no sympathy for him.

I'd be surprised if DJ found Elijah Moore intriguing. No one seriously finds Elijah Moore intriguing.

And im about done with undersized "Moore's" tbh.

Yep, maybe Mahomes will start throwing jump balls to him too.

Just my 2 cents: sometimes an injury just needs a band-aid. Hopkins is a band-aid...and Bactine more than likely. I can't imagine BV giving up additional draft stock, so this will be the offense until Brown gives them some help hopefully in the post -season. The biggest challenge will be to Mahomes: can he remember how to throw in tight windows to a freiver that can actually catch the ball? Does he go back to a little more of the gunslinger and "throw a reciever open"? Seems like it's been a LONG time since he has had highlight throws, and I blame the WRs with a dash of OTs for that.

Going from a losing team to a winning team can sometimes be miraculous

JJSS was signed off the street and had a 130 yard game, glass knee and all. "Only" trading a 5th rounder for Hopkins doesn't mean expectations for him should be low.

The Chiefs have this cool tradition where once a year they pick a receiver who is in quarterback hell, bring him to Kansas City where he gets to play with Patrick Mahomes AND he gets to score a touchdown in the Super Bowl!

‘22: Toney
‘23: Hardman
‘24: Hopkins

Congrats, Nuk!

One would hope the Chiefs looked into medicals before making the trade.

I was hoping someone had posted this. Grossi nailed this one pretty well - definitely enjoying the Cowboys reaction.

Hopkins isn't really a 'get thrown open' sort of guy, though. Not at this stage of his career.

He's more of a Dwayne Bowe sort of guy who's going to try to find a zone and use leverage/size to put himself between the DB and the QB.

The question isn't will Mahomes throw him open, IMO - it's will Mahomes throw it to him when he's NOT open.

Because if Hopkins is going to be effective vs Man coverage (and I feel like we'll start to see more of that), that's how it's gonna have to happen. He's not dusting guys out of his breaks. He's going to have to simply be better at attacking the ball than his opponent.

We'll see.

I see it like this: If they can get JuJu open, they can get Hopkins open. Be where you're supposed to be and make the catch. If you can do that, Reid will find a way to get you to produce when needed.

To DJ's point about making another deal. It's not just about this year, remember we only have Rice, Worthy and Skyy under contract for 2025.

We shouldn't be thinking about rentals - we should be thinking about someone under control or someone we can extend.

And to Mecca's point, the draft class sucks next year and we're picking at the end of each round. I'll gladly use some capital to help us now and in future years.
