This is more of a Johnson price than a Hopkins one, but I wouldn’t be at ALL opposed to the chiefs trading a 1 for a player and a 2 or 3. The 1 just isn’t ever going to be at a good spot for us, and given how much friendlier the contracts are and how good we’ve been picking in the 2-4 range, I’m ok simply moving down to get better.

JuJu Smith-Shuster and CB Jaylen Watson have already been ruled out for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders. Losing Watson is a pretty big loss.

Not a huge deal THIS weekend, but yeah. This is a lot of uphill sledding.

On the other hand, it's the Raiders.

1/2 a year of Diontae Johnson is not worth a 1st round ( to 2nd round ) swap.
That's a no go for me.

They sucked last year too when they beat KC in Arrowhead on Christmas without throwing a single pass in the 2nd half.

Consider me less concerned that one of the flukiest games i've seen in the NFL will happen again.

( they also had Davante Adams, Hunter Renfrow and a healthy Jakobi Meyers - the Raiders don't have any of those things this upcoming matchup )

I think this particular Raiders team we’re about to play might be the worst in the league. And the Browns are in the league.

Me too. But it’s in range for me. I would do a 1 for Johnson, a 2 and a 4. I don’t think Carolina would do that.

OK, yea, if you're looking at it like that, then yes, I would.
( bc our 1 is gonna be maybe 10 picks away from their 2 ).

I also - and I will accept a degree of BAD FAN here - am perfectly ok with paying more than you ordinarily would on the basis of hunting the threepeat.

It’s hard to overstate what that would mean historically. And I think we are seeing the end of what I hope is merely the first phase of Pat’s career. I don’t think we’re looking at anything like Brady’s mid-career lull.

But the future isn’t guaranteed. ACLs and Achilles Heels aren’t guaranteed. Motivation isn’t guaranteed.

I believe in shooting for history, and I personally think it is more likely to collect this one than it is to collect five more.

Speaking of Brady, I never really liked him but have to admit he is a pretty good color commentator.
