Mr.TaterSalad Posted August 21 Posted August 21 7 hours ago, NYLion said: Hutch is going to get over $40m/yr so on a 4 year deal it's likely $160m or possibly a good deal more than that depending on what Parsons signs for if he's up first. Also, Campbell is going to be a huge part of the Lions defense going forward so there's absolutely no way he's being traded for anything most likely and certainly not for a 30 year old Hendrickson due for a huge extension. Adding a 1st? No chance no way no how. I'm just merely answering the question of what the Bengals are asking for and fleshing out what a Hendrickson scenario could look like. If a team wants Hendrickson, right now the reported asking price is a 1st + a young defensive player. I doubt Holmes would entertain trading for Hendrickson in any scenario, much less one where the Bengals asking price is as high as it is. Quote
Mr.TaterSalad Posted August 21 Posted August 21 Damn, another injury to another really important player. Hopefully it's minor and he come back to practice and doesn't miss any time. Quote

Left on his own, inference that he may have returned if it had occurred earlier in the practice. 1 Quote

The Bengals can ask for that all they want but I don't see a team ponying up that much for a 30+ year old due for a monster extension. Edited August 22 by NYLion Quote

MichiganCardinal Posted August 23 Author Posted August 23 Allen is playing well and TeSlaa looks like a day one starter. Based on his not having played in the preseason I have to think Tim Patrick’s job is safe for now, but there are just so many weapons on offense. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted August 23 Posted August 23 TeSlaa has really good hands. Goff is going to love throwing it to him. On a side note, how long is my spell checker going to change his name to Tesla? 😅😅 Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted August 23 Author Posted August 23 Hooker in for Allen. Have to think Allen has secured the QB2 role and Hooker is competing for creating a QB3. Quote

KnoxP Posted August 23 Posted August 23 I was really pulling for Hooker, he’s just not good enough. If they keep 3, he better start practicing Lou Gehrig’s line. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted August 23 Posted August 23 Biggest question of preseason..will any team give Hooker a look or will he be on the Lions practice squad? Quote

MichiganCardinal Posted August 23 Author Posted August 23 (edited) I think they carry three, at least to start the year, and give Hooker one more year. They didn’t draft a real project this year, like Manu or Martin, who have taken up a roster spot the last two years without contribution. Coupled with Hassanein’s and Dan Jackson’s injuries, you have a little wiggle room on the 53 for projects who don’t dress on game day. If you take Hooker’s rookie year as a developmental wash because of the ACL, this is effectively a redshirt sophomore season for him. The NFL rules also lessen the blow from keeping a third QB and allow them to dress in case of emergency. -edit to add- this all being said, I won’t be upset if they cut him and lose him to another team on waivers. He looks awful. Edited August 23 by MichiganCardinal Quote

They may be great but if they can't put pressure on the QB it will be a tough go on defense. Quote
