Dolphins are setting up to go primarily defense in this draft.

That’s fine, but they only have 4 picks this draft, and the first isn’t until the 50+ range.

They made him the highest paid safety when he signed his last deal in 2020 and he already wants a new deal after two years? The Cardinals’ viewpoint is 100% justified, if they are telling him to pound sand about a new deal.

Is it more money he is after or to be on a winning team?

The report I read stated that he wants to be the highest paid safety again.

The report I read stated that he wants to be the highest paid safety again.

Surprise, surprise. Wants to be the highest paid, play on a SB bound team, but get guaranteed payment first.

I’m sure it’s cause he can’t forgive Obrein for the comments made.
Obrein criticized him as a man and a bad Father.
I’m sure Obrein was trying to motivate him to be a better person but it didn’t work.

Hopkins wants to win. He's not going to win on the Pats or Jets...both have unsettled QB situations. It's not about money or BOB.

Mac Jones is the pats starting QB. There is no QB controversy. It's all in the heads of the mediots and those like yourself who don't understand the game.


Hopkins wants his ring. What he doesn't understand is that the Patriots are much more likely to get there than the Bills or Chiefs.. The Bills took some big hits on their defense.. You know, the defense that folded like a cheap suit last year.

And that’s fine if that’s the case and what it is. Anyone who disagrees with the Chiefs and Bills chances vs. the Pats is a raging homer.

Your sig is interesting.

Perhaps you are saying that Hopkins should wait until the jets sign their QB.

I agree he's a vet and wants to win.. we were once that destination for many seasons..

However I'd say the QB position isn't so much and issue for us.. the coaching issue is what was unsettled until now..

Yeah... I know relating him to AH... I'm sure these men had to have talked one way or another on that situation..

By "unsettled" I mean that no one knows whether Mac is going to be the long-term solution in NE. Why should D-Hop sign with a team that doesn't know who its future QB is going to be? It doesn't help that Belichick has been rumored to be shopping Mac and has given a less than ringing endorsements of him.

The Bill Belichick-Mac Jones rift is real — and it's hard to blame either side

The relationship between the coach and quarterback needs mending, and success this fall seems like the best way to get there.

Last month, Belichick was given another opportunity to throw his support behind Jones. He declined again, this time saying, “Everybody will get a chance to play.”

Mac Jones is the pats starting QB. There is no QB controversy. It's all in the heads of the mediots and those like yourself who don't understand the game.

So Mac is the long-term starter in NE...got it.

Hopkins wants his ring. What he doesn't understand is that the Patriots are much more likely to get there than the Bills or Chiefs.. The Bills took some big hits on their defense.. You know, the defense that folded like a cheap suit last year.

So the Pats are in better shape than the defending super bowl champs...again, got it.
