Since I'm a poor man compared to NFL players, I have a hard time understanding this move. PFT said the Chief's offer would have made Hill one of he best paid receivers in the NFL. I'd pick making top 5 money in the NFL, continue playing with the best/2nd best young QB in football, and competin for an AFC title every year, over being the highest paid receiver playing with Dolphins.

Hill must really value money over winning. Miami hasn't worn a SB since 1973 (the Nixon administration) and hasn't played in a SB since 1984 (the Reagan administration). He must be content with the one SB ring, because he has a better chance of being struck by lightning that winning another ring in Miami before he retires.

Always makes me wonder what is happening behind the scenes. Is there some team friction? Is there an injury? Is there a personal issue that makes them want to give him a change of location? Are there grumblings about a new contract?

Yeah he wants to be the highest paid WR in the history of the NFL.  Hard to invest that much in a QB and a WR.

Am I reading the reports correctly? $30M per year average for a WR??? That is insanity. Adams' deal at $28.5M per year average was insane as well. 

At some point owners need to draw a line in the dirt. I don't care if they are rich, old men with billions. I don't care if teams are worth billions and billions. I don't care if fans pay high prices for tickets and beer. I do care that these contracts get higher and higher in all sports. It's insanse. And the more contracts signed like this, the higher and higher the money will go. They (like the owners) are getting away with robbery and it hurts the cap. The solution, of course, is no cap ... but lol to that. Which brave WR is bold enough to ask for 40 mil a year now? We'll probably find out in a year or two.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
