Come on Jerry make it happen

I really like the way DeAndre Hopkins plays. If he's 3/4 of the player he used to be, he's definitely worth a 2

 

[ATXSRT]

I'd do it for a 2nd. We usually reserve our 2nds for bust TEs or people with total knee replacements so why not.

 

[maryquality]

I'll take it!!

 

[JBS]

No

He’s washed up

 

[locked&loaded]

guys turning 31 in June and is coming off a suspension. seems desperate. pass

 

[Cowboyny]

What is missing is that he wants a huge extension, that’s why Arizona is trading him

 

[Stash]

If he’ll show up to work on his current contract?

‘Ya got yerself a deal!’

thats what i was thinking as well

but i don't expect us to be in play for Hopkins at all .....a second rounder? too rich for us.

 

[Mr_437]

Cowboys will offer a 5th.

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

No

He’s washed up

Based on what? Wild guess?

 

[JayFord]

Cowboys will offer a 5th.

now we're talking.....

I don't think this is actually true.

He's coming off 2 underperforming seasons (one of which including a suspension) and his current extension actually hasn't even begun........ (his current 2 year 55-million-dollar extension hasn't even taken effect).

At the absolute best he could hope for a trade and then a 3rd year added.

 

[Vinnie2u]

They were willing to give 2 for Cooks.. Hopkins is a no brainer..

 

[FanofJerry]

A 2nd with Will McClay at the helm is a bit rich, imo.

If he wants a large contract plus being 31?

I do like Hopkins game though.

That's the problem.. not the 2nd rd pick. And he's too old for an extension. No gracias....

It was the same reason the Texans dealt him, he wanted more money.

Not only high draft capital, but also extending him to a heft price. We cannot pay two receivers 20 plus million, which Lamb will be getting soon.

 

[Kingofholland]

In theory it sounds great based on what he's done, but between his injury history, suspension, age, and contract is it worth it?

A few years ago Julio Jones and DeAndre Hopkins looked like the best receivers in the NFL. Both have fallen off a lot. I certainly believe the best receivers can still be productive well into their 30s, but I don't know that Hopkins is the same player.

Besides hasn't Cee Dee drawn comparisons to Hopkins? Would it be better to have a receiver that brings some alternative skills that doesn't make 30 million a year?
