I can’t believe you just assumed trading for JJ is the same as trading up to 3 in this draft and are calling someone out because of your original take.

I didn't assume that but nice try from the peanut gallery.

It's just ironic that trading away our first round pick, an ALL-PRO and best coverman in the NFL in Sneed and another high pick and another receiver is such a great trade.

Maybe you and the Franchise can apply together to the Chiefs as the Abbott and Costello GM Dream Team.

Two ****ing know-it-alls on every subject.

Is this the twilight zone?

Nobody's saying it's a 'great trade', or even that it's a possible trade. It's not happening. NOT HAPPENING.

But trading for the #3 pick and 5 years of cost controlled rookie star WR isn't the same thing as trading a ton of draft capital AND having to pay $30m per on top of it. And THAT would be monumentally stupid and almost certainly COST KC Super Bowls, not win them because of what it would do to the rest of the 53.

There's no free lunch.

Mahomes plus best 52 is working out well so far. I say we stay with that.

Doesn't mean we don't need to get better at WR. It just means we don't have to go crazy, just get BETTER. Keep the guys we need to keep, and draft and develop.

If Jefferson signs for $30 million a year then some team got a major steal and he should fire his agent. Jefferson is probably looking at $33-$35 million per.

Is it hard to understand that we don’t have control over Sneed beyond a 1yr contract on the franchise tag where we have to take the entire cost of the contract under this year’s cap? And perhaps he decides to hold out for training camp in disappointment? Do you think that’s the same as just trading him away on a cheap deal when we have years of control beyond that?

A 2025 3rd is equivalent to a 2024 4th. That’s a day 3 pick, not “another high pick” according to you.

You have no idea what you’re talking about. Go back to your lunches and experiences in the 1980s.

This is what the Bears gave up to move up 8 spots last year and (afaik) were guaranteed 3 years with Moore instead of 1 year of Sneed.

So yeah, moving up 30 spots would be more than 1 year of Sneed, trading 1st round picks, a 3rd, and not-even-JAG level receiver.


Chicago traded a first-round selection (1st) to Carolina in exchange for

WR D. J. Moore (3 years, not 1),
first- and second-round selections (9th and 61st),
2024 first-round and
2025 second-round selections

Hell, when the Chiefs grabbed Mahomes, they had to give up an additional 1st round pick to move up 17 spots just to 10th.

Yup. And this year has what's presumed to be a generational receiver as well as 3 possible QBs who could go top-3. The value of those first few picks is through the absolute roof.

This isn't any generic year as it relates to those top few picks. It's probably one of the deepest top-10 drafts in awhile as well.
