Story by Andrew Gould




The Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl without a star wide receiver, but they could reportedly make an elite offense even scarier by acquiring DeAndre Hopkins.

NFL insider Benjamin Albright told PHNX Cardinals that Kansas City is the "primary suitor" for Hopkins. He doesn't know the draft compensation the Cardinals would receive, but he said it's more likely they get a second-round pick than a first.

After the 2022 season, theScore's Jordan Schultz reported that the Cardinals plan to trade Hopkins this offseason.

Arizona hired a new general manager and head coach after a disappointing four-win season, and Hopkins is set to make $19.45 million (with a $30.75 million cap hit) in 2023. The Cardinals could seek a clean slate by moving the three-time All-Pro wideout, who turns 31 in June.

Hopkins began his Cardinals career by tallying 1,407 yards and six touchdowns in 2020. However, multiple lower body injuries limited him to 10 games in 2021, and he served a six-game suspension to start the 2022 season for violating the NFL's PED policy.

Yet he remains an impact player when on the field. Hopkins totaled 474 receiving yards in six full games with quarterback Kyler Murray last season.

Now imagine what he can accomplish when catching passes from Patrick Mahomes.

The Chiefs flourished without a star replacement for Tyreek Hill, but they could still benefit by solidifying the position this offseason. JuJu Smith-Schuster is a free agent after garnering 78 catches for 933 yards on a one-year deal. The depth chart features several talented question marks in Mecole Hardman, Kadarius Toney, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Adding Hopkins could be great news for Kansas City, but terrible for all opposing defenses.

Do we want a high priced prima donna?

Do I want him? No, not really. I don't really care one way or another.

It does seem like the rumors are gaining steam, though.

Eh, this article is citing Benjamin Albright, who isn't a great source. I haven't seen anybody else report this rumor. Have you?

I like it.

I understand the sentiment against it but Kelce/DHop/Toney whatever is unfair.

Sure for a reasonable type of price though.

Mixed. He's actually relatively cheap if he's even 70 to 80 percent of what he was at 19m and 14m, but there's no way for us to know his health or $$$ wants. If he needs a new contract fuck no.

I'd take his talent/ability for sure. But, I wouldn't pay the cost to get him.

It's all over social media. Let me see here in a bit (damn work) if I can find sources.

The usual provisos for an elite team apply. We have a lot of stars who need to be paid. If you want to take a team friendly deal to win a ring, welcome aboard. If you want to break the market, there's probably a poverty team with a lot of cap space waiting to overpay you.

Of course you could also view it this way...

How often do you get a chance to win 2 in a row and adding Hopkins to the offense makes this team that much harder to deal with.

That's kinda the way I see it.

Do whatever it takes to keep winning.

If they're asking for a second maybe we can get him for a mid rounder and change, especially if he's pressuring them behind the scenes to send him here.

For a second? No way. He's 30, and he's done very little since getting busted for PEDs.

Third and sixth, yes.
