NFL News OT: Titans trade WR DeAndre Hopkins to Chiefs

[JohnJH]

The Chiefs are doing what The Patriots did when they were on SB runs. Acquire a player or two that can give them an even greater chance of winning a SB.

 

[JohnJH]

And...

According to Sporttrac, The free agent class at left tackle is:
Cam Robinson, JAX, 29 years old
Garrett Bowles, DEN, 32
Ronnie Stanley, BAL, 30
Tyron Smith, NYJ, 33
Cornelius Lucas, WASH, 33
Kelvin Beachum, ARI, 35
Jaylon Moore, SF, 27

STOP.

I have no idea what any of those guys bring to the table. Smith, Lucas, a and Beachum are old in NFL lineman terms, Trent Williams not withstanding. So that means you're vying for Robinson, Bowles, Stanley and Moore with the other 30 something teams. Even if not all the teams are in the market, there's bound to be some interest. Good luck.

2025 NFL Free Agents

Yep. It's not a good FA OT Class. IF Wallace can be a solid RT next Season, then adding a Campbell or Banks Jr. at LT (even as Rookies) will GREATLY improve this OL. If Johnson is the answer at Center, I'd still try to find another one, and a LG as well. We NEED to address the OL for Maye to succeed and the DL and Edge need help as well. Truth is, this Team needs talent in all 3 Units, if we can get as much of that between the 2025 FA Period and the Draft, then nail it in 2026 as well, we might have something going on in a positive way.

The rich get richer. He might be 32 but he’s still good !

We have different definitions of "Good"

 

[TheRainMaker]

And yet you keep watching....

Not nearly as much as I used to, but enough to know who's who.

You obviously haven't seen KC play this year.

Lol. I have and their defense keeps suffocating opposing offenses. It's clear you have an agenda towards KC

So in other words, despite all your complaining about the quality of the product, you keep watching.

Lol. I have and their defense keeps suffocating opposing offenses. It's clear you have an agenda towards KC

No agenda other than knowing something you clearly do not: Nobody ever won the Lombardi in October. They are a good, but beatable team. They may very well win it all this year, but not if they keep playing the way they have been.

Whatever the definition of "good" is, it's better than what the Queefs currently have at WR

 

[Ring 6]

They actually do need the help, Mahomes hasn’t been good this year and their WR core has been depleted with injuries, smart move by KC.

Not to be that guy, but it’s WR corps.

And you are correct.

Historically age 32 receivers are about 60% of what they were.
He's not been good this year but the whole offense there is not good.
Still probably an upgrade.
I don't think the Titans care if they help the Chiefs for a year, they get draft capital for a guy not in their plans.
Pats should be taking late round picks for anyone on an expiring contract.

He wasn’t great last year either. His final numbers look good but his 75 catches came on 137 target. That catch rate is way below his usual %.

 

[Patsgofor4]

The rich get richer. He might be 32 but he’s still good !

Is he? There is more evidence currently that the contrary is true. It’s worth a shot for Kansas City and maybe he will thrive and look like the old D Hop under the guidance of Reid and Mahomes.
