Just wondering….with DHB signing with Indy, should we be concerned with TY’s value?
Nope. While speedy, OAK reached for the kid despite not being a natural route runner, and not concerned about that changing. Hilton and Luck are maturing together into one of the most promising QB/WR duos in the league; rapport is tough to compete against. DHB is a great football move for the Colts, but DHB is a burner and spot play receiver. He will be a good thing for Hilton and that offense. Wayne could still share the spotlight with Hilton this year, there will be enough passing to go around for that, but make no mistake, unless the Colts draft a Hopkins, which is always possible, Hilton is a future WR1 if you ask me.
I’m also very high on hilton
Smart man.
