I think that much is clear. Hopkins could barely sniff the field in spite of a decimated TE room at times during his tenure with us thus far. So adding this kid, who was a third round pick, adds talent to the room plus maybe they draft a TE in what is a very talented class. End result is we end up with a totally different TE room for 2023.
Hopefully someone with the Rams has been tracking on this guy though and they end up with a Corbett type pickup. But whether or not he works out it looks to me like a changeover in that TE group could be the plan.
