Good chance a move is made for Sammy or Chris this weekend

Agreed.

From listening to Reid and reading CJ's comments, seems like the Chiefs have already found a trade partner. Hopefully it's a strong return in picks.

Business wise, this is the right move. It allow the Chiefs to retain a few more guys, possibly make a couple low-key FA adds and re-stock the roster with some solid young talent with the extra picks. And to have a more flexible and workable cap situation going forward as they manipulate the Mahomes contract and other things.

Obviously, the D-Line will lose some interior push, but hopefully they will make up for it with better run stuffing interior players, more depth on the overall D-Line and hopefully guys do a better job of staying healthy this next season.

Assuming there is a next season of course . . . . . . .

I’m cool with a trade, even though I’d obviously prefer to keep Jones, but I just hope it doesn’t drag on. If you’re going to trade him, get it done next week.

You really can’t go wrong here IMO.

If we get a middle of the 1st pick that allows us to get Murray or Queen, that would be huge. Hopefully Saunders make a huge jump in year 2.

It’s a harsh reality that was always probably going to come. Hard to have all these high paid guys on top of Mahomes and still field competency around them.

I wonder who the trade partner is. Ballard and Indy makes sense but he loves his draft picks.

A top 15 pick plus a 3rd or 4th would be nice.

If it’s a late 1st, we better get at least another 2.

I remember hearing an NFL talking head say a few weeks ago that he heard from the combine that Ballard has said privately that "he would give up everything" to get Chris Jones. Although tbh the only logical trading partner looks like being Miami imo because they have three firsts to play with with a ton of cap space.

Hopefully it's a good pick if it's a late first I'll be upset if it's too 20 and a 3rd I'd be fine

Colts have two 2nds. That might get it done.

Or their 1 and another pick.

Now is the perfect time to do it if you’re the Chiefs. Fans are already worried enough about real life issues, the Chiefs just won’t garner as much attention.

I bet he’s traded by next Wednesday, officially.

I think after the CBA vote tomorrow night. The NFL is gonna delay the start of free agency.

Two seconds would feel a little cheap imo considering how much the Rams just paid for Ramsey. Plus didn't we get two seconds for Dee Ford? Nah need a first somewhere in that deal which Is why Miami makes sense to me. Miami also don't have much of a pass-rush do they? So it all adds up.

I think trades would still happen though

I wouldn't be completely shocked if it's the Bills:

1.) We've traded with them in the past.
2.) They have a ton of cap space.
3.) Arguably on the verge of making a deep run.
4.) Likely losing Jordan Phillips in free agency.
5.) AFC East finally theirs for the taking especially if Brady leaves.

If they trade him inside the AFC, it’ll be a team that’s less of a threat like the Dolphins IMO.

The only reason I’m buying the Colts as a possibility is that you can get 34 and 44. That would give you 3 picks inside the top 44 (and 4 in the top 64) If they offer that you have to take it.

I don’t see the Bills giving up anything more than 22.

I hear ya do Veach and Reid really view Jared Allen with no weapons a threat though? As long as it's not the Ravens/Patriots/Texans I think I'm fine with it.
