Deandre Hopkins has already eclipsed his numbers from last season, 717yds/774yds, 3 Tds/5TDs, etc. and so on. On pace for 1,100 yds, 7 TDs. Playing for TEN, as their only weapon. Getting double and triple-teamed on every snap., or drawing DB1. With three of the worst QBs in the league.
Hopkins signed with the Titans on July 24th. Veach was trying to get a deal done with Chris Jones at that point. We know that Veach spoke to OBJ and Hopkins this off-season about a contract.
If Chris Jones agreed to the extension Veach offered his cap hit this year would have definitely been lower freeing money...that we could have used on Hopkins [Reply]

Yet Veach found salary cap room to make Taylor the second highest paid RT in the NFL. [Reply]

Or we could have signed cheap tackles (Wylie) and/or drafted one (Morris) and used the money on Hopkins either way. Someone suggested that in the offseason. A buttfucking moron he is. [Reply]

Then he should have traded CJ95 before the draft while he could. Letting that situation drag on for so long was a massive fuck up (among many) from this offseason. [Reply]

:-)... Found? That money was going to OBJ or Taylor? Are you saying we should have rolled with Wylie and Donovan Smith? And no, Wylie isn't nearly as good as Taylor, no matter what you want PFF to say. [Reply]

Wylie at RT + DHop and the Chiefs are 10-3… at least.
Wylie for $12 million less than Taylor and without Taylor’s 17 penalties as well. [Reply]

And when FA was happening DeAndre Hopkins was held hostage by his old team that wanted a "2nd and more" while every GM in the league laughed at them. [Reply]
