Better than Tremble and Thomas combined. Although that's not saying much. 

Yeah.  He's good [enough] that if a starting caliber TE doesn't happen in the draft, not a huge deal.  But still allows us to select Musgrave/LaPorta/Washington at 39 if we choose.  

But then, if we don't, can still take a R4ish shot on a Schoonmaker, Kraft, Whyle type.  

Makes the decision at 39 less forced, can be the best offensive skill player available.

Solid vet TE. I still expect TE to very much be in play at #39. Feels like that pick almost has to be WR or TE unless someone is there that's just shocking to still be available.

5 tech that fell?  MLB?

I'm with you, but I'd prefer a wide out to a TE.  With TE's I'd rather do exactly what we did.  Just takes too long for those guys to contribute.

regarding Hopkins... Only 8 Mil?!? LET'S GO GET HIS ASS - From Bleacher Report:

Hopkins has a no-trade clause in his contract and is set to carry a $30.8 million cap hit in 2023. That cap hit will be reduced to $8.2 million after Arizona takes on the $22.6 million in dead money remaining on his deal—but he won't be a fit for every team. He'll have to sign off on any trade, and teams will either need to have the necessary cap space or be willing to negotiate a new long-term deal.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes

      Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
