So the obvious answer to what to do with Hopkins is you trade him for value. Or for anything. That or find (and play) a competent quarterback, which plainly isn't going to happen. Hopkins is a very good player, not an elite receiver I don't think but a very good one. Brock's QB rating when throwing to Hopkins is something absolutely putrid. He went oh-for the half. I can't imagine it will get any better in the second half.

The Texans can't possibly win the division this year. If they insist on playing Brock next year it'll be yet another wasted year.

I know I'll get a lot of heat...but I'm starting to wonder if he is just above average. It's hard to see this guy get ZERO separation.

Maybe he's hurt and not saying anything. ..
