I didn't watch Hopkins in college except for some highlight videos after we drafted him.
What I do know is that my former boss that coached in NFL Europe said the kid was NFL ready. Was he right? Apparently no for 2020. But he thought he was the steal of the Rams draft.
I suppose what this means is that sometimes you swing and miss. Sometimes a player just needs some more time than others.
I think many of you are potentially right but it strikes me as odd that so many are so adamant in their views that you would go to battle over a 4th round pick.
We know there are limited resources to sign everyone we'd like (apparently anyone but a few of us liking the DJ signing). But keep in mind, we all want what's best for the team and really have no idea what the coaches or organization see as priority needs. They've had their ups and downs bit most of what I see are ups. I'm going to go with the idea that they are going to continue with more of the ups within the constraints they have in front of them, self inflicted or not.
Maybe not get so invested in an opinion that it pits you against each other on this board. It's all supposed to be fun like shooting the shit over a couple beers - yeah?
