He played 3 years with Watson and was 1st Team All-Pro for all 3 of those years. That's the only years he's been 1st Team All-Pro in his career.

There is buzz today about D-Hop going to the Stains. Hope not, he is still a damn good player and as TLL says has played with Watson
and been damn good while doing so.

Don't see how the stains can afford him.

It would be in a trade, picks, would be the only way I could see that they could...
Hope you are right and D-Hop goes somewhere else, hopefully the NFC.

As to coming here: He listed the 5 QBs he'd like to receive passes from and JB was not among them (Allen, Mahomes, Hurts, Jackson, Herbert). I think it has more to do with not wanting to be WR#3 here. Lions have the cap space and seem to be going all out, but I could also see NYJ making room.
I would agree. No receiver would prefer Jackson over JB. Or Allen or Herbert for that matter.

I think the idea with the Browns is the swap out Amari Cooper for DHop. Cooper can be cut to save 20m in cap space.

Makes sense and I think D-Hop has a lot more in the tank than Cooper anyways, hope he lands somewhere else.

Browns would only save 8m in cap space. Cooper has a 15m dead cap hit i 2023.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

After June 1st it's a 3.7m dead cap hit for 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026 with a savings of 20m.

I think Hopkins made a good decision going to the Titans.
I like Burks at WR and even Okonkwo at TE, but they really need another pass catcher to help take focus off their run game.
Tannehill has shown in his career he needs weapons to be effective, just like Dalton did.
The AFC South is arguably the most winnable division in the AFC.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

And when the Titans are running the ball well with King Henry they are a great play action team. Good fit for D-Hop.
