Hmmmm. Maybe this explains a bit why Hopkins was only worth a second. https://www.nfl.com/news/michael-thomas-tyler-lockett-among-10-best-pass-catchers-of-19
During DJ's rookie year they started speed tracking and he had the highest top speed for the year 22.xx mph. If by some miracle he stays healthy and is used correctly you never know he could be a beast.
Watching old Texans games on NFL Network and I can't believe the Texans got rid of Hopkins and not Fuller. Fuller had like 561665 drops in the Chiefs regular season game.
fuller def had a **** game. When healthy, he was trending towards being a #1 receiver though. And don’t this he’s being moved into that position here. He will still have to grow into it. How fast and if he can stay healthy is up to him.
Nah. I've always been a proponent of trading Fuller; especially when his stock was so high. When the Patriots were looking for a receiver and traded a 2nd for Sanu; I wish the Texans would have gotten a 1st for Fuller. He's too inconsistent and he'll drive a QB nuts. Hopkins + Cooks would have been much better than Fuller + Cooks.
Injury risk too high. No one would pay a first for him. At best, I'm thinking he'd garner a 4th. For that, you play the hand you have and add additional speed threats which they have done. If he plays well - maybe you can trade him later. Most likely scenario is he plays out his contract and is gone.
Fuller is far too injury prone to get anything for, and far too impactful to just give away. It's been night and day watching this offense with and without Fuller.
which is why it’s ok even when he has a drop. Stretching the field is the key to opening up the field. now 3 in one game was simply unacceptable. But I’m sure he’d say the same thing and everyone is bound to have a **** day. I’ll state it very clearly so the haters can understand. If he remains healthy all year, I expect him to have a bigger impact on the offense than Hopkins will in Arizona. More TDs. A more prolific offense. More yards per catch. More yac. More plays of 20 yards plus. hop will still likely lead in receptions, but my better is he averages below 8yd per reception.
