Future of Hollywood Brown as a Cardinal

[JosiahLee]

Would have cheered him on anywhere else, now I can’t.

Its the relying on Michael Wilson's health that worries me. And yes I know Hollywood hasnt had great health. That and MHJ is still a rookie so no guarantee he hits the ground running vs double coverage, etc.

Maye Monti has something up his sleeve or plans to invest picks into multiple wrs in the draft.

This. I assure everyone, the secret to offensive success is not built on a slew of rookie WRs. I expect Harrison to be an impact maker right off the bar, but even then, that could mean 800 yards. And expecting anyone after to be dependable is a recipe for disaster.

People bring up he's the best since Julio. However, they forget Julio had a few issues his rookie year(still really good obviously) and he had an All Pro in Roddy White across from him.

Fitz wasnt elite and he had year 2 Anquan. And yes I get it was a different era and he had a bad QB, but still.

Do we even know we made an offer?

Hollywood’s lack of desire to be physical and fight for the ball can be a QB killer. That’s why I don’t think Kyler is losing any sleep despite losing his college buddy. He is explosive and a good enough route runner to put up numbers with Mahomes but let’s next pretend the Chiefs are master evaluators of the WR position lately.

I am guessing we did not based on his compensation

They do seem to be trying like hell to recreate Tyreek Hill with these small wrs. Hollywood should still do fine there.

Still hope Monti adds another wr though.

This is a massive win for the Chefs. The ceiling is top 20 WR. The floor is top 60.

You are all crazy. I would have absolutely offered 15

For a guy that can’t stay healthy managed a full season in 1 out of 5? The year he barely eclipsed 1000 yards. Drops too many balls and has had 1 mediocre 1000 yard season in 5? Hasent even come close in the other 4 full seasons…. Mehhhh….. passssss….. Especially knowing the market has been set at 7 million +incentives…..

Paying 15 mil for a top 60 WR is a loser proposition.

The fact that he was in like the bottom 2% in deep ball catch percentage is crazy.

I would take that over cap space

I obviously believe he finishes in the top 20. He will wreck in KC

Naw I'd rather play Dortch. Or Wilson. Or Chris Moore. Hollywood got worse the longer he was here.

I expected the Cardinals to resign him because of hubris.

I don't see it.

That's what I'm thinking too. Maybe they don't see him as a good fit.

This regime seems to value availability and avoid injury prone dudes.

Hollywood can be replaced (upgraded?) by Worthy in the 3rd

Clearly especially considering he signed elsewhere for a base of 7 mill

I imagine he’ll be in the top 20-30.

Can we not do anymore tiny WR’s plz?!

 

[kerouac9]

His film must’ve been immaculate to get a deal like this.

 

[PACardsFan]

Would have cheered him on anywhere else, now I can’t.

I understand everyone is tired of seeing the Chiefs win, but as long as the Steelers LOSE, I don’t care if KC goes to 10 more SB’s. I love seeing a strong AFC if that’s what it takes to keep Pittsburgh at home when it gets deep into the playoffs.

Yup.

 

[CardsFan88]

The price wasn't bad.

But he may have wanted to bet on Mahomes and the Chiefs to get him a big payday rather than his buddy and here.

I'm still wary of his limited availability and it'll be interesting if he can play 14 games next year and how much he fights for balls.

Though with Mahomes, he might see a bunch of wide-open throws so it might not matter.

Clearly, Monti didn't want to bet big on him.

Also, I'm only expecting us to win 4-6 games with the roster as of yesterday, so a 1 year deal with Hollywood doesn't impact us that much long term.
