OT: DeAndre Hopkins Has Left Camp and is Holding Out According To Schefter

[manxman2601]

Woah.

 

[VrabelJr]

Could try and trade Matt Cassel for him? Thoughts?!!!

Oh wait it's 2016.

 

[Froob]

Should trade all of our picks for him and then give him 20 a year.

 

[Ross12]

Well that's not so great for BOB. Hopkins is outstanding and does deserve a top tier contract, though. What's he make currently?

 

[oldrover]

You mean Hopkins doesn't see the huge potential for his career in being thrown to by the 72-million-dollar-gamble Brock Ostrichweiler?!?!

I'm shocked. SHOCKED!!!

I think the Brockweiler will do well to be honest. He showed some potential last season. He really should have stayed there that was fantastic situation to be in. But, then again telling Elway to **** off was awesome after his website took a dump on Brockweiler.

 

[nabwong]

Damn. I wish I could walk out of my job and hold out.

Yeah but on the flip side, Osweiler got screwed by Manning and Elway and told them to shove it so how can you not root for the kid?

 

[Joey007]

Mallet trade incoming? I was told on this forum that Mallet is worth a couple first rounders, a few small countries, and a third born child. It would be more than enough to acquire Hopkins, no?

I thought it was Kraft's fault?

 

[SHOWTIME15]

I think the pats were targeting him in the draft a few years ago, but houston beat us to him.

 

[varjao]

He's a 1st round pick so he is making decent money even in a rookie contract.

Stephen A Smith was advocating him and Antonio Brown to hold out on First Take, I hope the Texans can sue the hell out of him.

Reminds me of what Wade and LeBron did to Pat the Rat Riley. Hope the kid does well in Houston.

Florio is reporting that Hopkins never reported to camp, instead of "he left camp" as Shefter says, and he also goes into the difference between reporting and leaving versus just not reporting.

DeAndre Hopkins didn’t leave camp; he never reported

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Just so I can beat everyone to the punch with a typical homer trade proposal like we often see here:

DeAndre Hopkins for Aaron Dobson and Jacoby Brissett (and then you have to make it sound like you really know what you're talking about with a conditional 6th round pick for one side.)

 

[TinhWoodhead]

Lots of problems in Houston...

 

[AtomicDawg]

Lots of problems in Houston...

I see what you did there...

And yeah...Hopkins holding out and an injured JJ Watt. Rough start if you're a Texans fan.

 

[ViperGTS]

Dobson plus a 4th straight up.

Championship!

 

[A man named Brady]

I always thought it was interesting that players are always supposed to honor their deal and when they don't Theyre selfish entitled pieces of crap, yet when a team decides to cut a guy or move on, it's ok

 

[PatriotsReign]

Damn. I wish I could walk out of my job and hold out.

The really weird thing is that someone was idiotic enough to dislike your post!

Must have been a business owner
