Part of the reason the Bills lost to us was bc their WR’s couldn’t catch. If Diggs made this catch it would have changed the game and given them a much better chance to win.

Who do you trust to make the catch on this throw? Cooper or Hopkins? I easily trust Hopkins to make this catch

"Whom do you serve?"

Cooper cost a 3rd...Dhop a 5th keeping the Sneed pick intact

You mean, uh, like Kelce....

Or JuJu...

Make the trade official already so Andy can talk about.

Andy Reid on Hopkins: “Veach is dealing with all that. I’m hush on that.”

Apparently Hopkins has to sign a new deal with Tennessee before the trade to make the money work.

Hmmm.....

If the Titans are paying about half, that suggests we're on the hook for about $4 million?

Would eat up almost all of our remaining cap space but that doesn't matter a ton. Taylor has a pretty substantial base that we can probably move around a tick without too much trouble.

Wish we'd have found a different way to get Travis his bump than a big ass roster bonus though. There's not a lot of wiggle left in his deal, but we might be able to find a couple million there (which would be enough for a guy like Slayton).

That'll work.

He has 5.3 million remaining so half that.

Yeah, gotta convert his base to a bonus of some sort to make it stick to TN's cap instead of travel to ours.

I think you can do that without adding a void year to the end, but maybe not. Shouldn't take much effort really.

Well, a contending team lost their top 2 receivers two days ago. Maybe Veach was slow playing it until Tampa needed a new receiver?
[Reply]

Incentives as well. They're LTBE so they count on this year's cap. That's how I got to the $8 million anyway.

No matter - we'll find out soon enough.

You can already see where this is going. Hopkins is going to attack zone coverage like crazy with Kelce, Worthy and Mahomes.

Here are DeAndre Hopkins catches from the 2024 season. He has 21 targets for 15 catches and 1 touchdown on 95 routes through 6 games. #Chiefs #ChiefsKingdom pic.twitter.com/R4ZVL8OBtB

And it helps us with the value of the Sneed pick.

Win/Win!

LJ Sneed gotta be pretty mad watching this play out.
