Couple that window with Reid’s age/health as another overlapping factor, I don’t mind us taking big swings (like this one) this off-season and next. I think our Tyreek move + awesome draft haul bought us that luxury, if Veach is on board.

Don’t overpay in comp or cap, and ensure we draft for well again this year, and let’s roll.

This is it right here. Prime age Mahomes in waning years of Andy and Kelce. Don't want to look back and feel like we didnt push all the chips in on offense to see what's possible. Let's top 2018 but with a young, speedy, relatively inexpensive defense.

Unreal. There isn’t anything else that needs to be said. Your opinion of Mahomes is noted.

That's a nice way to put words in my mouth.

I'm mixed on DeHop. If he would play on his current contract may be.

But I have no faith in Toney's health, limited faith in JuJu's health, limited faith in Skyy to become the WR we all want to see.

Kelce is an iron man but he's not getting younger.

Not a lot of guarantees in this business. Discount WRs are going to have some sort of downside.

Just ducking quit.

Again. Another poster not appreciating Mahomes.

The stats prove that your notion is bs.

It's like Russell Wilson, JJ Wyatt and Julio Jones didn't just happen

Yes.

Great post.

People talk about emulating the Patriots but there was a decade where Brady and Belichick won no Super Bowls.

Go get 2 more Chips with Kelce still here.

Have the GOAT at QB and win in the trenches and its a recipe for great success.

Exception not the rule,

We also do not want to waste Mahomes prime by not putting quality players around him when possible.

Give up a 2ndish rounder to maximize Mahomes and Reid chances for rings #3 and #4.

Because his camp has already said they want a new deal as part of any trade.

You guys are making me agree with BleedingRed.

Veach and Andy have always talked about putting alot of weapons around Pat. This year was more of a "we got caught with the Tyreek thing a bit late and pivoted" kind of thing. I think exception not the rule is the way going forward.

Of course they do.

But we aren't any old team, we're the Chiefs.

Worth exploring if he would play for us as is.

Certainly worth exploring. But he's going to want a new contract. I think that's the deal-breaker.

Even if we could get him to play as is for 1 year I pull the trigger.

If he needs 25 million plus now then we go elsewhere.

I agree 100%.

Balto 03-02-2023 10:59 AM

I like the idea but not if he wants Tyreek money. I agree with others about keeping him under his current contract for 2023 and then look at an extension during 2024 before he becomes a FA.

I'd also want to throw MVS into the trade as I feel the need for that extra cap space is outweighed by his production.

Cards get:
MVS
2023 2nd

Chiefs get:
DHop


Chiefs will save $7M by trading MVS. You add in DHops $19.45M, that will only be a net of $12.45M for him.
