Rapsheet says that he thinks DHop is gonna a get a 10m contract with some incentives to potentially 15. If he's that cheap just pull the trigger who gives a fuck.

I just don't buy for a second he's gonna sign that cheap. I see it being at least around 13m base and I'm sure incentives around 20m.
OK that ain't cheap. $5M is cheap.
$10M and I'm out, out, out. He's not $9M better than Flowers or Bateman at this point.
And at $10M, its another one year deal, meaning you're in the same spot with him and Odell next year, only with much more cap impact from guys who may or may not be here.

Meanwhile you have 2023 and 2023 only to decide whether Bateman is a 5th year option guy.

The only way I could see the Ravens adding DHop is if they find a very late Ryan Grant style medical excuse to wriggle out of the Beckham deal and direct his money to Hopkins.

It's an impossible dream but I'd love it. After all, OBJ has already done his job, Lamar's signed long term - time to study the small print in the contract.
That is the kind of devious I can fall in love with...

I loved Soulja man. Smh.

That game was crazy, those were some beautiful passes. Especially the one he threw across his body rolling left

If Zay is in the slot, where are OBJ or Bateman playing? On an average play, how many WRs are we expecting to have on the field?
Well Bateman played 18 games in two season so im guessing week 7ish his spot will be open. OBJ soon after , Hop will fill in nicely

Then why are they on the team? Why not just cut them now?
In same boat next year. OBJ not here, Hopkins unlikely to be here, and you have to decide before the season starts if you want to pick up Bateman's 5th year option.

And despite all of that, Hopkins would then just be the 3rd target, since Andrews and Flowers should be targeted more.

And this is probably blasphemy to say as a Ravens fans, but, gasp... football isn't ending after 2023. Its OK to not go completely "all in".

Sorry the wheels are already in motion , you can’t stop it. Cutting the team does seem intriguing for next offseason, we’ll cross that bridge in 24.
