Glad we've got Ramsey on our back end. Great trade for AZ.

Kirk, and Nuk on the same team will be tough. Suddenly Larry Fitzgerald looks like he did 5 years ago with those two drawing attention away from him.


This all in before the QB contract theme is the norm across the league.

This has to be cap related as well or Obrien is taking some full on crazy pills

Wow, so Houston still wants to not hire a real GM? I don't understand this for Houston at all.

Not really a huge difference in cap this year. Maybe they planning for the next 5-6 years which is still dumb asf where you could easily get cheap RB’s in the draft and still pay Hopkins. Smh.
What I'm reading is Hopkins wanted a new deal and BoB didn't want to pay a WR that much so he took a RB he didn't need that's signed for 2 years and got a 2nd rounder they needed. Horrible business IMO but it's just my opinion.

ya I can't help but think there was a better deal out there for trading Hopkins, just a bad deal for Houston imo, Zona got to be doing a happy dance right now.

Don't have the details but Houston will be taking on all of DJ's bloated salary. Hopkins is said to be ready and wanting a new deal so AZ will have to pony up there.

What is Bill O'Brian doing?

BoB going to be fired within 2 years me thinks.

Yeah, I'm not sure a rapper can be fired from their job, right? :p

As for O'Brien? I think he'll be fired when the Texans fail to make the playoffs and be forced to trade Watson and Watt for picks.
