3.Cardinals trade Patrick Peterson to the Chiefs
Chiefs get: Patrick Peterson
Cardinals get: 2020 first-round pick

Patrick Peterson won't come out and say it, but it kind of seems like he doesn't want to play for the Cardinals anymore. Just to give you a little refresher on the Peterson situation: The Cardinals corner demanded a trade back in October, only to apologize for making that demand a few months later, but the situation didn't end there, because now, it looks like he wants to be traded again. Peterson has removed the Cardinals name from all of his social media accounts and he's spent the past month taking passive-aggressive shots at the team. If you've ever watched literally any reality show involving a Millennial, those are usually the first two signs that a breakup is coming.

Peterson even posted a photo of some of his former teammates who are no longer with him in Arizona, and that photo had an interesting caption, "My boys told me to watch out for the snakes in the long grass!"

With a new Cardinals coaching staff now in place, it would make since for them to start fresh with players who actually want to be in Arizona. Clearly, Peterson isn't one of those players.

If the Cards start to shop Peterson, every team in the NFL should call them with an offer. Not only is he a three-time All-Pro corner, but he's also under contract for the next two seasons at the very reasonable rates of $11 million (2019) and $12.05 million (2020).

Although Peterson could get dealt anywhere, we're sending him to the Chiefs and that's because Kansas City has been doing everything possible to beef up a defensive unit that couldn't stop anyone while ranking 31st overall in the NFL last season. After watching his defense choke away the AFC title game, Andy Reid is clearly trying to make sure that doesn't happen again.

Not only have the Chiefs already traded for Frank Clark and Emmanuel Ogbah, but they've also signed Tyrann Mathieu, Alex Okafor and Damien Wilson. If the Chiefs were to add Peterson to the mix, the defense would be nearly as scary as their offense. Also, based on Peterson's Instagram picture, it seems Peterson would probably be pretty excited about the chance to reunite with Mathieu.

Sell him on winning a Super Bowl, and if it doesn’t work, so be it.

I'd also tell him that he'd be the most popular, and most valuable, PP in town!

That's damn near a given that he'll want a new contract.

Multi-million dollar PP!!

Buckweath · 05-09-2019, 12:12 PM

I get that he is a great CB and has been so consistent but at the end of the day, he is 29 years old playing the CB position, where we see plenty of players decline sharply around 30 years old.

He is not worth anything more than Peters, who was a top 10 CB, 25 years old and still on his rookie contrat at the time Veach traded him.

So I'm good with a 2nd and 4th in 2020, which is more than what this team got for Peters, but anything more nope!

It doesn't make much difference but Arizona is not trading from a position of strength either as it's clear Peterson has made up his mind that he is leaving.

This. I don't ever want to watch a defense like last year again. It was just awful. Ruined what should've been the best Chiefs season ever. Well it kind of was the best season anyway. But shit like that Chargers game at home is shit I cant stand seeing.

True. You have to make money on that PP, not pay too much for PP... That's what desperate folks do

Mecca · 05-09-2019, 12:17 PM

Ok he's better at the position than Peters is....he actually doesn't give up catches instead of just making big plays.

If it is, then I found some interesting things in there. Mainly that he had 2 years left on his contract at $11 and $12 million. Now, I'm guessing that he would want a new contract as part of the trade. Should the Chiefs give him a new contract right away if they make the trade? I mean, nothing has been said about why he wants out of Arizona. But I'm guessing money because of his snakes in the grass comment. That makes me think that he was promised a rework on his deal and the Cards changed their minds. I don't know. Is there anything out there to support that idea?

2 years left on his contract? By the time it expires, the earth will be 602 years old!!!!!

AdolfOliverBush · 05-09-2019, 12:21 PM

I'd make the move, even at the expense of the 2020 1st. Fuller needs to be in the slot as much as possible, Ward is unproven, and Breeland isn't exactly a lockdown CB. Not much can be done to improve the LBs at this point, but PP would round out a completely revamped secondary via talent and leadership. Combined with the new coaching staff, this defense may give us a Woodrow that can cut diamonds.

Pitt Gorilla · 05-09-2019, 12:25 PM

Not for a first.

BleedingRed · 05-09-2019, 12:27 PM

If we get PP............

Our defense "Could" be top 10 next year.
