Brandon Flowers: Would you trade? (Caution: LNBS)
***Late Night Bullshit Alert***

Calm down, it's not going to happen. But some people I know were discussing Flowers in regards to declining skills, injuries and size. Personally, I think he'll rebound after an off-season of recuperation. He just turned 28. That said, he has seemed to slow down a bit after 6 years in the league.

So here's the thing: While the Chiefs would save overall on the cap if he was traded, they'd eat quite a bit of dead money. (See chart below.) What would it take for you to trade Flowers? For example, look at the Jets. They are hot for a starting CB & have the 18th overall pick. Would you trade Flowers for that pick? Maybe their 1st & 4th? What would it take for you to trade Flowers to another team? Personally, I'd want a lot. That's a boatload of dead money and Flowers is still a starting corner. I'd consider a first round pick this year (20th or earlier) & a third this year (or second next year). With the new rookie salary cap, draft picks are that much more valuable. What say you, gentle CP reader?

Next year it might be worth it to cut him, but the truth of the matter is we're not going to find a corner of his quality with the 3.5 million that would be saved. Next year perhaps.

A guy has one down season and the fanbase turns on you in a heartbeat.

I agree with those who say Flowers is likely gone next season. I think Hali is gone next season as well.

I still wouldn't trade him though. I doubt you'd get more than a 4th anyway. Older vet players with huge contracts aren't easy to sell.

If we could get the 18th overall and save 3 mil in cap space this year knowing that next year we get nothing, that move should be made. With the 18th pick we could get one of the top two CBs in this draft and have 3 mil to sign a decent vet for the OLine so we don't have to use a high pick on it this year.
So why would the Jets trade us their #18 for an overpriced cornerback when they could just draft one of the top two cornerbacks this year and pay them rookie wages.

Overvaluing of players, Flowers and Hali aren't worth jack shit on the trade market.

I read somewhere that Chiefs inquired about that guy.

Maybe they trade Hali and Flowers for him?

Hopefully Flowers rebounds this year so we can sell high next year.

If Flowers doesn't hit his head on Coopers arse, Chiefs win and he's worth every cent of his contract.

The man DESERVES some respect from the club and the fans.

Having said that, its time he moved to the slot and had a salary shave, he just ISNT the #1 lockdown guy we all hoped he was, his height and speed limitations are too much for even the best football IQ to overcome.

Love the guy, he's been STANDUP from day one, but facts are facts.

I don't think they would. It would be stupid. But it was the question in the OP, so I addressed it.

That is right. Next year when we can save 7.5 mil by cutting him....Well Bye.

Next year when it makes sense for all parties, possibly.

A team would probably be willing to take him now or next year based on the salary they inherit at 6 mil per. His salary isn't inhibiting a trade in my opinion. The other team doesn't inherit bonuses.

I think, however, saying a 1st or a 1st and 4th is grossly overvaluing him. You'd be lucky to just get that 4th.

Like him but he's just too limited physically. I'd trade a 2 for him. Gotta think of the future.
