How would you feel if Peters was a Raider, Charger or Bronco for years on end?
From a pure football perspective, I am absolutely not a fan of this trade. But my better judgment says that if the Chiefs had no intention of picking up his 5th year option and no intention of signing him to a long term extension, at least they were able to choose his destination, which is out of the AFC and AFC West in particular.
They’re also receiving far better compensation than a late 3rd round 2019 draft choice and at minimum, 33 slots ahead of a 3rd round Comp pick, which are usually between 97-106, along with a 4th this year.
It’s a damn shame that the Chiefs felt they needed to part with Marcus Peters but in the end, it could have been a lot worse.

THIS!!!! Yeah, keep him for a year, let him walk and then play against him two times a year against Oakland and watch him and Beast Mode dance for 30 minutes on the sideline whenever they squeak out a win against us. No thanks!
