Zuk, there is a lot to consider here for teams picking up the phone and calling new Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort. And these things, good as DeAndre Hopkins has been over the last 10 seasons, will probably conspire to drive down his trade value.• He’s hurt a lot—he’s played in 19 of 34 games the last two seasons, after showing a lot of fight in battling through a series of injuries to miss just two games over his first eight seasons as a pro.
• He’ll be 31 years old on opening day. On the surface, that doesn’t seem disqualifying for a receiver. But that’s how old A.J. Green was when he went from Cincinnati to Arizona, and he’s had just 78 catches for 1,084 yards and five touchdowns in 31 games since. And Julio Jones was 31 for his last year in Atlanta, which is when injuries started to take their toll on his production .Isaiah J.
So what has Taylor done in his time? He’s overseen a roster that has almost completely turned over since his arrival four years ago, he’s helped Duke Tobin’s staff identify the right draft prospects and free agents , he’s developed the picks and integrated the incoming veterans, and—and has shaken a stigma the Bengals carried for decades.
And I do think part of this is a little bit of a debate in owner David Tepper’s head—because I do believe his initial instinct was to go get his young offensive-minded whiz kid. What made him come off that was Wilks’s success, where you saw the adult-in-the-room dynamic at work, and Tepper got to see how his locker room rallied behind a strong, experienced leader. Which is why I think Wilks, Reich and even Jim Caldwell have been considered.Brad, I don’t think so.
