Game: When does DHB sign?

Recommended Posts

Just to have some fun with all of the forum members I ask you this:

 

When will DHB sign his contract???

 

Lets be honest... the guy has not garnered much attention around the league as a free agent. He has been out there long enough for someone to have landed him already but, nobody has tried yet. Word is the Colts and the Jets are the only teams linked to him as of now. I am pretty sure a guy like DHB does not want to play for a team like the Jets with a QB like Sanchez.

 

So this is how it will go down... the time that I plan on using to determine the winner will be when rotoworld posts the exciting news. Forum member with the closest time to the MINUTE will get my undying praise for about ten seconds.

 

I'll go first: 3:07PM

 

Get your answers in ASAP or you just might miss out on all this undying praise I have to give!!!

If he signs, it will be announced at 1:55 on ESPN Radio Colin Cowherd Show.....little fella seems to get a lot of breaking news stories.

 

I am not going lose any sleep if he does not sign....but I am warming up to the idea a little more.  I guess ya can teach an old dog new tricks  haha

I wish people would stop trying to talk theirselves into believing that we have the best shot at signing him because we have Luck or because we are a better organization. He'll go to whoever gives him more money, plain and simple. If he was at the end of his career, maybe he would choose the better team, but he's young and wants money. Stafford is a good QB and Detroit isn't a bad team, so it's not like were light yrs. ahead of Detroit. We might get him, but it will be because we offered more money.

All I can say is I'm trusting Grigs wont try and throw too much money his way to try and sign him. If he is in it for more money and Detroit or whoever will give it to him let them have him. We can get a guy in the draft. I'm sure well have a chance to get a solid receiver.

He'll sign due to his shared appreciation of communicating solely in classical rock lyrics or riddles. Money isn't everything after all.

Just because he's visiting another team doesn't mean squat. If he liked what he saw here, and how could he not, then I am confident he'll sign IF we even offered the guy a contract. He may be wanting superstar money...

There are a lot of variables that can also come into play. For example, his role with the Colts will most likely be as a 3rd receiver, maybe even a situational player. With the Lions he might be expected to be their #2 receiver, behind Megatron, since their receiving corps arguably isn't as deep as ours. They have Megatron, and then Burleson, Broyles (injury prone so far) and Pettigrew?

 

So not only is the amount of money a factor, but if DHB thinks he can be more of an impact player he may choose the Lions over the Colts. He'll be a bigger part of their offense as compared to ours.

    • I was thinking a bit about what Ballard said in that clip from "Behind the Colts", about "he's not going to get much bigger". No idea if he was talking about Worthy... but if he is... he's right. Whether Worthy ends up playing at 165 or 176... this is still extremely small and light. Whether he's in the 1st percentile or 5th percentile of athlete's in weight in the league, this doesn't change the type of player and type of worries you would have about him with any significance. So... in a way, I kind of find that conversation a bit pointless. IMO the question should be - okay. he is small... and he will always be small. Can we work with that? 
    • You think the Ed Dodds you see in edited clips here is the same as the Ed Dodds who interviews with teams?   I don’t know you or anyone would think that?      He’s very much respected around the NFL which is why multiple teams ask to interview with them most every year. 
    • I was too hahaha  Why’s that
    • Round 1 - #15 A. Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas B. Brian Thomas, WR, LSU C. Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia   Round 2 - #46  A. Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M B. Marshall Kneeland, DE, Western Michigan C. Jaden Hicks, S, Washington State   Round 3 - #82 A. Troy Franklin, WR, Oregon B. Darius Robinson, DE/DT, Missouri C. Ben Sinnott, TE, Kansas State   Round 4 - #117 A. Jalyx Hunt, DE, Houston Christian B. Mason McCormick, OG, South Dakota State C. Malik Washington, WR, Virginia   Round 5 - #151 A. Beaux Limmer, OC, Arkansas B. Tanor Bortolini, OC, Wisconsin C. Isaac Guerendo, RB, Louisville   Round 6 - #191 A. Decamerion Richardson, CB, Mississippi State B. Qwan'tez Stiggers, CB, Toronto C. Nick Gargiulo, OC, South Carolina   Round 7 - #234 A. Millard Bradford, SS, TCU B. Mark Perry, FS, TCU C. Dalton Tucker, OG, Marshall   BONUS: Will the Colts trade the #15 pick this year?  A: Yes, they will trade back.  
    • Yeah... Richardson needs players who can separate and who can get open deep. IMO "give the inaccurate QB a contested catch receiver with large catch radius" is one of the tropes that hasn't proven to work well. Contested catches have about 50-55% success rate even with the best of contested catch receivers and with relatively accurate QBs... now if you think AR's accuracy is not good, drop that rate even more. The best way to give a relatively inaccurate QB better chance to complete passes is to give him a WR who separates and and who is open so the QB would have more of a margin for error to throw the ball a little behind or ahead or a little higher or lower than ideal. (we are not talking about uncatchable balls here... those will be uncatchable for anyone really). In that regard, one thing I would agree about is - we need WRs who have good hands and have good ball skills.   And this is ignoring that AR has indeed been pretty good with his accuracy on passes at intermediate and long range. His biggest problem coming into the league was the short stuff and he was already showing improvements in that deparment before he got injured.    And Worthy is the WR who created the most separation from anybody in this draft :
