DeAndre Hopkins and a fourth round pick go to Cards for David Johnson and a second round pick this year and a fourth round pick next year.

WOW.

 

Up go Cardinals

Down go Texans

[Def. 860]

Bill want's to be remembered in the same breath as Herschel Walker. 

 

This is the dumbest (the really bad word)ing trade I've seen since I was old enough to comprehend the management aspect of football.  Well done Bill, well done. 

[Dcat 407]

Hopkins is my one of my "forever" keepers.  (the league allows 2).  I think I prefer Murray getting him the ball than Watson, but not sure why.  What do you think?  Is this better for Hopkins or worse?  

 

P.S.  The Texans are going to suck.  This deal is like the Cardinals stealing candy from a baby's mouth.  Wow. 

[millworkguy 431]

I wonder who Houston with the 2nd 2nd, is targeting there to want to make this deal? Moving up to  Pick 40 from pick 131, and still owning pick 57.  They could easily move up in the 1st, or get a 2nd 1st and get some money salary stability from their picks versus Hopkins,  but wow!!!

Will Fuller might score 15 tds in the 6 games he plays this season

Really, more like 4 games since he leaves a few early. But I completely agree.

[Shaft 1,015]

Wow! This actually made me forget about the Corona for a few minutes.

 

This is like that bad fantasy trade everyone sees happen, but can't veto.

[Gourdeau 475]

Texans have traded away Hopkins and Jadaveon Clowney int he last 9 months, and have not received a 1st round pick.

Haha. My thoughts exactly! What are the Texans thinking? They just got shook down. 

[DMD 331]

Cardinals get new uniforms

Wow.... Just wow.

Agree with everybody. Awful trade for the Texans. 

 

Trading an elite 27 year old wideout for a high mileage rb who turns 29 in December.

 

The Texans are idiots!

Somme kind of salary dump? Did Hopkins force himself out?

But people will still rip on the Texans for the trade and labeled worst in history etc. 

 

Sometimes you got to move on, would people prefer watching him sit out a full season like other players are doing?

Shenanigans.  Even if its because a team doesn't want to pay him, you don't give him away for a ham sandwich.  The trade is being labeled appropriately.  BO'B has now managed to move two elite players (Clowney and Hopkins) for next to nothing while at the same time trading 2 1st round picks away for an average (at best) tackle in Tunsil.  Bad is bad. 

[purplemonster 289]

I am perplexed by this. Gives away 2 1st rounders (and a second? I cant remember) for Tunsil, then turns around and trades an elite WR with 2 years left on his (good) deal for a busted up RB on a bad contract and 2nd and 4th?  What am I missing?

 

Edit: It was a straight 2nd rounder and DJ for Hopkins.  And 3 full years left on Hopkins deal.

Same here. Even if there's something we don't know, how do you give him away for a box of rocks and a broken down David Johnson? This is beyond perplexing.

You're ribbing us right? You can't be serious.
