This. Either for him or someone else. I just have a feeling they'll make a move this year for the 3 peat.

Yup.

I think the Lions would fall all over themselves to give us a 2 for Sneed. I think they're drafting at like 61 - they'd do that in a heartbeat, IMO.

And they'd probably throw a 4 and maybe some capital next year in for good measure.

They BADLY need a player exactly like Sneed on that roster. And his mindset/attitude fits perfectly with Campbell's approach.

Shit, if there's a team in the league that would give up a 1st for Sneed it's Detroit. And frankly, they wouldn't be crazy to do so. Sneed will help them more over the next 2 or 3 seasons than that draft pick will. And the draft is deep at WR and OL where they're already fairly young and fairly strong.

If the Lions would give us their 2 and Jameson Williams for Sneed, I'm pretty sure I'd have to do it.

It would be a nice haul but Jameson just hasn't done anything yet as a pro.

RunKC 02-27-2024 01:49 PM

Yeah the Lions don't have to pay any of their star players except St Brown soon.

The 29th pick probably isn't getting you a guy you need right now to get where you need to go.

And quite honestly GB is gonna be a problem with Love and the weapons they have. Having Sneed cut off one of those guys is huge for that defense.

It makes too much sense. The time is now and they should treat it as such

Nope. Not even a little bit. And only has 2 years left on his deal.

Ultimately I think they could probably get him moved for about a 3rd rounder based on little more than his pedigree. So if you use him as a proxy for a 3rd round value (and their 3rd isn't worth a ton) it comes down to Sneed for a 2nd and 3rd.

That seems equitable. And Jameson is still damn fast - he essentially steps right into the MVS role and we could go drafting for the replacement that Skyy/Toney was supposed to be.

The NFC is just so wide open. And the FA market is flush with cash to the point that it's actually a little dangerous to go dabbling in it.

I believe it was like the 2013 NBA offseason (edit: 2016 offseason) where all the TV money hit at once and the cap went up something like 30% in a single offseason. Everyone had money and man did they spend it in the stupidest ways imagineable. Pretty much every team that signed a FA regretted it immediately.

That's just what happens in a flush marketplace. Stupid money gets thrown around and the only way to win at that point is not to play.

Well the Lions HAVE to get better. The NFC is too wide open and they came too far (and too fast) to just sit on their hands. They need to improve their defense and the smart way for them to do that is to avoid FA in the process.

So you trade for Sneed and his tag charge, use that as leverage to put together a more reasonable extension and you're cooking with gas.

Absolutely everything about a trade for Sneed makes sense from the Lions perspective. The only question will be how much you could extract from them in the process. It would likely be a pretty fair amount.

Dante84 02-27-2024 02:08 PM

What about swinging the below trade with the Eagles?

Philly: #32 + Sneed
KC: #22 + #53

We move up 10 spots in the first to get our BPA at OT or WR, and we get #53.

KC picks:
#22
#53
#64

EDIT: Shit, this would even position us to slide up further if there's a guy in the 12-16 range we covet.

Can you imagine what the draft forum would be like holding #22 for a few weeks BEFORE the draft?

MahomesMagic 02-27-2024 02:10 PM

Not interested in Jamo but if his throw in kept us from drafting Franklin sign me up.

The ability to move up even more would be huge.

With the way we draft and develops DBs, I just can’t see paying Sneed.

I was wondering about that very idea in the other Sneed thread and it felt like too big a haul.

Getting from 32 to 22 is essentially going to cost a late 2nd. So it would be like trading Sneed for a pair of 2nds. I don't think Philly would give up that much.

DJ's left nut 02-27-2024 02:19 PM

FYI - if we did that, I'd probably go Guyton/Mims and then Walker/McMillan with our 2 2nd rounders.

OT in the first and a pair of WR possibilities that would both complement Rice in their own way in the 2nd. Use the 3rd and 4th round on IOL and DT.

We're not getting the 3 peat without BOTH Jones and Snead. There's no one in the draft that will make an impact like those 2.

I'd trade either or for a pro bowl left tackle on a rookie contract at this point in their careers.

I've heard "We're not doing X" far too often over the last two seasons to think it will ever EVER apply.

We MIGHT not get the job done one of these years. In fact every season the odds favor that we won't. The field is a better bet every time.

But how can anyone watch what we've seen the last 2 seasons and say "eh, we're not going anywhere" on the basis of losing a single player not named Patrick Mahomes?

We don't NEED both of those guys to 3-peat. We didn't need Tyreek Hill to win in 2022. We didn't need DeAndre Hopkins to win in 2023. We won't need Chris Jones and La'Jarius Sneed in 2024.

I think it's better to say "those two make it more likely we win, or atleast make it easier".

A moderate upgrade at the WR group would offset Sneed's departure

“Chief for Life” only applies to Mahomes (for now at least, almost every great has a second team late in their career).

Everyone else can/will be replaced. Kelce being the only other exception. He seems to just be playing for the rings. He’d probably retire before playing elsewhere.

Just stopping the major negative plays (drops and turnovers) was enough to win a Super Bowl.

An upgrade beyond that makes us elite.

kccrow 02-27-2024 03:22 PM

I'm far more inclined to lose Sneed than Jones because this draft class is stacked in the top 50-60 at CB.

All of these guys can play:

Terrion Arnold, Alabama
Quinyon Mitchell, Toledo
Cooper DeJean, Iowa
Nate Wiggins, Clemson
Kool Aid McKinstry, Alabama
Kamari Lassiter, Georgia
Ennis Rakestraw, Missouri
Kalen King, Penn State
TJ Tampa, Iowa State

Give me any one of those guys in the top 2 rounds and I guarantee the impact from losing Sneed drops a full degree.

If you have to use the pick from trading Sneed to get a CB, it's not a loss because you've gained the cap space to retain the other parts.

I'll be honest, though, I really don't want to lose Sneed. He's a bit of a unicorn as a physically dominant shut-down corner. If his knee really isn't great though, I could see moving on. As I've said around a billion times already, I trust the FO to make the right decision.

I'm picking nits, here, but the dude has also had a handful of concussions. He also had a bunch of penalties.

Of course I recognize that he was the best CB in the league last year. But I'm thinking about the next 3 years.

Yeah, I get it. But then I watch ANY of our playoff games this year and it's just ridiculous. People HATED Taylor's penalties as well, to the point some suggesting CUTTING him during the season. Then, you see him whipping everyone's asses in the postseason and keeping Pat clean.

You don't want to know how many concussions O and D lineman get. It's a fraction of what's reported.

And those penalties are Sneed testing the waters. They're always early and he always plays solid after them.

He's already proven ON the field what he's bringing to the table. I'm sure his dad has already talked to him about the best scenario on draft day. He can go out and maybe go up a spot with something exceptional. Or worst case scenario pull a hammy or tear an ACL and cost him millions. He's making the right decision to start his NFL career.

The reporters didn’t really ask any good questions.

The last few drafts, the combine interview with Veach provided lots of useful cues to strategy and this one didn’t provide anything.

I think my favorite is the "If it flies, it spies" T-Shirt. https://birdsarentreal.com/products/if-it-flies-tee

In all seriousness: It's a satirical conspiracy theory where the joke is that you act like you believe it 100% to essentially troll those around you with a completely asinine take.

Tip Reiman, you have made my draft board sir.

I was gonna leave it without the actual breakdown of 'Birds Aren't Real' satire, but there are some really moronic dumbasses on here, so I figured I should clarify just to be sure unfortunately.

it's funny to me how it just sneaked into the collective zeitgeist somehow.

I mean I've seen baseball games where a bird gets hit with a grounder or something and the broadcaster will just quip "well the taxpayers are gonna have to buck up for a new drone..." without so much as breaking stride. No further context to it, just a quick hitter and they move forward as though nothing happened.

You have to be completely earnest or its not funny. Sounds like Reiman gets it...

Sassy Squatch 02-29-2024 04:27 PM

He's still dumb as ****, but it's more for using what is essential his job interview with all 32 teams in attendance to troll.

Have you ever tried to explain satirical conspiracy theories to someone who just doesn’t get the joke?

Man, it is ****ing painful.

Yeah you're probably right. Rapaport said he's already interviewed with 18 teams. Still if he happened to fall, it would be great to add him.

Guess my dream of KC taking him in the 3rd or 4th round probably isn't happening. Oh well, he's a great player anyway. Was simply hoping he'd fly a little under the radar.

No clue if these guys really believe this or not.

If they do, my dad told me one time about a family member, "you can either keep your mouth shut and let people think you're dumb, or open your mouth and remove all doubt."

If it's a joke, I'm sad, because I'm an old man.

Rough combine for Austin Booker.

I never bought that he’d be a second round pick like some suggested. Really seems like a stretch now.

If we take a TE I hope it's Sanders!

When they are the field does it look like they belong? That's it.

Do not draft that guy. Offensive players could easily convince him that defense doesn't exist.

Not me, because one, he is going too high, and two, I don't think he is as good as people think he is.

JohnnyHammersticks 02-29-2024 11:02 PM

Watched most of the DL group drills. Braden Fiske looks like an absolute stud. Electric showing by him today. Jared Verse looks really good. Byron Murphy, Ruke Orhorhoro, Myles Cole (HUGE and fast) were impressive. Also thought Maason Smith, Marshawn Kneeland, and Gabe Hall looked good.

Wasn't impressed with Myles Murphy, Zion Logue, and a couple others.

JohnnyHammersticks 02-29-2024 11:14 PM

Florida State was stacked on the DL last season with Fiske, Verse, and Fabien Lovett. All 3 of those guys looked good today.

Is this dude just conducting an experiment to see how many red flags he can throw up and still get drafted 1 overall? Seems like this is a punked episode or something.

suzzer99 03-01-2024 12:40 AM

He's gonna be drafted by one of three different teams. No reason to get your medical record out there to everyone.

I don't think that's it.

Quote:

In accepting his invitation, Williams also did not sign off on having his medical records shared with all 32 teams, sources say.

The NFL has for years gotten complaints from draft prospects about the length of time for medical examinations as well as the redundancy of having doctors from all teams examine the same player and ask the same (or similar) questions.
.
.
.

ESPN first reported that Williams did not plan to do medical testing at the combine, and further reported he plans to submit to medical exams with teams with which he meets individually during the pre-draft process.
If I knew I were going to be a top-3 pick, I don't think I'd waste my time with medicals for every team either.

No.

Trevor Lawrence, Andrew Luck… all guys who were guaranteed #1 overall draft picks and they still disclosed their medical records at the Combine.

Brock Bowers is intriguing...doesn't really seem to be a consensus on where he might go.

How far would he have to slip before you consider moving up for him?

The things Andy could draw up with him...pffffft....
