Veach describes CB Kendall Fuller as an ascending player with tremendous potential. Very excited to acquire him in Alex Smith trade.
— Matt Derrick (@mattderrick) March 14, 2018

Veach says trading Marcus Peters was in the best interest of the team. It was not just a matter of game days on Sunday. Anthem was not an issue -- "100 percent." It was a body or work over three seasons that prompted the decision.
— Matt Derrick (@mattderrick) March 14, 2018

Veach reiterates there was no mandate from ownership to trade Marcus Peters, says it was made on the full body of work, both on and off the field.

"At the end of the day, everyone is where they need to be," Veach said.

"We knew exactly what we wanted. We wanted Kendall Fuller."

~ Brett Veach on the trade of Alex Smith to Washington, which also netted a third-round pick.

Brett Veach said they had inquired about trading for Anthony Hitchens and Sammy Watkins last year during training camp.
— BJ Kissel (@ChiefsReporter) March 14, 2018

Sammy Watkins was the No. 1 player on the #Chiefs free agency board, per GM Brett Veach.
— BJ Kissel (@ChiefsReporter) March 14, 2018

Veach says the Chiefs have always had an experienced backup and expects the same this year. Hopes to have something done soon with a veteran backup.
— Matt Derrick (@mattderrick) March 14, 2018

Veach says Dee Ford doing very well, thinks he's going to be a 100 percent by April 1. Says he saw him in the locker room today.
— Matt Derrick (@mattderrick) March 14, 2018

Veach says he's interested in Tyrann Matthieu if he can make the money work.
— Matt Derrick (@mattderrick) March 14, 2018

Veach says the goal is still winning a Super Bowl. Says Chiefs have a young team and he knows there wil be growing pains.

I think a lot of teams go off of it.

It’d have to be one of the 4ths then. The latest.

Going to be butt ****ing moronic if they trade off the actual additional draft choice they got for Peters to move up for a corner with their own top pick.

pugsnotdrugs19 · 03-14-2018, 05:20 PM

I don’t want to get stupid and see Veach pay way more than necessary, but again, quality over quantity.

Historically, fresh, but I kind of thought once trading opens up, value seemed to change. Maybe I'm wrong, hadn't really cross referenced last year's trades to the chart.

Felt like we got a deal trading up for Mahomes though.

It doesn’t matter. They clearly weren’t having anything to do with Peters anymore. The compensation is already less than what he gives you as a player so it doesn’t make a whole lot of difference if they use it to move up for someone, CB or not.

If they want to use that to acquire a good corner who they might actually like and extend one day, I’m fine with that.

Why?

ShowtimeSBMVP · 03-14-2018, 05:23 PM

Veach further on Mathieu: "We exhaust ideas and options that maybe are completely unrealistic or maybe a 1 percent chance of ever happening. But we'll still exhaust it if it can happen. But sure, and that would be another one that maybe we already exhausted already."

Wow. The more Veach speaks, the more I like him. Sounds like a real football guy w/o the Peterson/Pioli pretense or Dorsey awkwardness.

if you can use our draft pick to replace Peters why is that moronic? We used a pick to get him.

I feel Josh Jackson can be very similar to Peters. He'd be two years younger and maybe he's not a total dumpster fire attitude-wise.

RunKC · 03-14-2018, 05:28 PM

Veach inquired about trading for Hitchens and Watkins in camp last year.

Damn

McGinest on NFL Network said that the best fit for Mathieu would be the Chiefs.
