Grade the Marcus Peters situation
Might as well document our overall reaction.

in before poll
|
F-

In

F but I’ll say that Veach probably did the best he could under the circumstances
|
Put the damn poll up so I can give it the worst grade possible. And would you please have a response category that is 'worst grade possible, and I wish there was a worse grade than that so I could pick that one instead'?
|
Dammit. Left off Clark Hunt. Oh well. He can be the pissed off options.

I gave F's to everyone

Fs for all except Veach, who most likely did the absolute best he could given the shit hand he was dealt.
|
WTF. It's a bullshit trade not getting the second round pick till 2019 is horseshit.
|
****ing sickening.
|
Could have handled Peters better during the season thats lack of leadership on Andy Reid part.

The only good thing about this is that there are no Rams fans, so no one will come to Chiefsplanet and gloat.

I'd rather have kept Peters and picked up his 5th year option. Make his ****ing ass earn his new contract on a new team or lose money for himself. Instead of KC getting fleeced and putting us in a horrible position defensively.
|
I don't blame Veach... this came down from Reid/Hunt.
|
No Clark’s?
Poll fail. |
Tough situation- don't blame Veach at all since I think its safe to assume that this situation deteriorated much worse than we knew.
Unfortunate that Reid couldn't reign Peters in more, unfortunate Peters couldn't be more mature in this situation. I don't blame Dorsey either, I think they knew what type of individual you were getting when you drafted Marcus Peters. The juice was worth the squeeze until this season I suppose. |
“Package of picks” ROFL
We only got two ****ING WEAK |
Talk to me when the season is over and we can discuss the results. Don't really care about hypothetical of what may or may not come. It happened lets see what the actual result will be before I fly off the handle.
|
I wish we had gotten more, but hard to grade as an “F”. Worst case it appears we at least got a team cancer and distraction out of the locker room. And as Kaep has demonstrated, market value of an anthem sitter/kneeler is dramatically lower than an equivalent player who stands.

Wouldn't the best situation have been to keep Marcus another year at his rookie cheap ass rate and tell him "We can't get shit for you with your baggage. Keep it together for the season and then try to cash in as a FA".

It's Fs across the board.
They drafted the guy knowing that he imploded at Washington. Reid managed to reel him in at the end of 2016, but still decreed he was not worth the effort when his talent clearly is. Peters has blown up his chances at TWO of his last two stops despite his immense talent. The trade haul was downright pathetic. I'd rather them just play Peters two more years and let him walk. Nothing but F's for me. Period. Edit: Forgot to include Clark Hunt, who refused to stand aside a player exercising his 1st amendment rights completely peacefully. F F F F F F F. |

Thank God the Chiefs got Mahomes. If they had re-upped with Alex and done this trade, I'm not sure how much longer I would have cared.

I'm not going to "Grade" this trade until at least 2020.
The Chiefs have an opportunity to draft two players that can contribute immediately in their respective draft years and if that happens, it'll lessen the loss of a talented but troubled person. |
The only way I could dislike this more would be if he had been traded to St. Louis.
Kidding, but really... Although I think we kind of got hosed in the deal, if you can't resign him to a long term deal then taking what you can get for him is the right move. It's Peters' fault that his behavior depressed his market value, not Chunt/Reid/Veach. The lesson learned is to take what you can get, and don't draft people of low character in the future. |
Quote:
|
F's all the way around...complete and utter abomination.
Have no idea why you trade him now to begin with...would've waited until the draft or after and see if anyone else would've bit if they missed out on a CB target. This entire thing is insanity. |
I think it was probably the ****in clarks, I hope his fake ass hair catches on fire.

A steal that leaves our team for relative peanuts 3 years later. I'd rather have a very talented player at 18 who could contribute for a decade. |

I know you're not denying that, but WHAT THE ACTUAL **** ARE WE DOING. |
I got better grades in High School.

Do you know how many times guys demand to be traded this time of year and end up staying with that team? Marcus Peters didn't have the money leverage to actually hold out.

Reid REELED PETERS IN after the suspension last year. Berry will be on the field in 2018, and is far more suited to reeling in Peters than someone like Houston or Parker. And honestly you can just live with it. You can live with the really dumb shit he does for another two years, three if you want to tag him. After that you let him walk and you get a 3rd out of it. I'd rather take a 2020 3rd + two more years of Marcus Peters than a 2018 4th + 2019 2nd + no Marcus Peters. And you never know if teams will be willing to pay us more down the road. THIS JUST SO DAMN STUPID. GOD. |

Peters only really had 1. That's on Peters. It's also on Veach for even entertaining this terrible deal. It's on Dorsey for wanting to pull the trigger on an insane person in 2015. It's on Reid who said "this guy's going to be tough but worth it" to Dorsey than being unwilling to continue reeling him in. It's on Hunt for refusing to support Peters and likely caving to STH's who are crying themselves to sleep because a black guy is peacefully protesting. It's on everybody at One Arrowhead Drive. They all failed this team. |
The only way when you see this is all your gonna get back in a trade and don't say "ok nevermind not moving on that" is if you have to trade him, you can't say no.

Let's not excuse Veach in this, please. He's the one that pulled the trigger. Unless the team wants to tell us who is responsible for this, and they won't, they all take it. |
Quote:
They won't tell us anything, so we have to figure it out. |

At least there's always the Browns, right?

31 other teams had an opportunity to trade for Marcus Peters for a 4th round pick this year and only ONE made the deal. Think about that: The Vikings, who already have a great defense, passed on him. The Eagles, the defending Super Bowl champs, passed on him. The Saints, whose defense turned a corner this year but lost to the Vikings passed on him. The Falcons, who have a good defense but would have clearly upgraded with Peters passed on him. The Green Bay Packers, who need a shit ton of help on defense, passed on him. The Bears, led by Matt Nagy, who are likely to lose Kyle Fuller to Free Agency, passed on him. Many, many Super Bowl contenders passed on Peters. Hell, the Eagles gave up a 4th round pick for Jay Ajayi, but wouldn't give up a 4th for Peters. Only one team wanted this guy. One. |

Tell me Dane: which do you want. OPTION A 2018 4th 2019 2nd no Marcus Peters OPTION B 2 more years of Marcus Peters 2020 3rd I know you said you're withholding judgement, which is honestly the only fair reaction, but Option B seems so much better than A it's hilarious. |
The compensation hits you in the feels, but glad we passed on him too.
|
Quote:
That's clearly incorrect. |

I still take B all day. All day. |

You, like so many others, are looking at this situation as if it was in a vacuum. It's not. |

IMO at worst, they were getting a later on 3rd round comp. I don't think the trade moved the needle to feel pressed to do this today. I can't help but think this is happening now because fat **** Chiefs fans, that haven't seen their own dicks since Montana, sent emails to Clark because his knee made contact with grass. |

Fully expect him to be gone in two years while Pederson and Nagy play in the NFC Championship game. This is the equivalent of losing a playoff game after being up by 18 points in the second half. |

Oddly, yours may actually be the stupidest comment in this thread. |
He hasn't made enough money to even hold out at this point.

What would've been the problem with holding on to him until draft day or after....even into training camp.
A team misses out on a draft target, injuries, etc. and who knows what you get. Trading him this early makes absolutely no ****ing sense. |
I checked the angry boxes, but i'll give the trade an "M".
...For Mahomes....'cause without that...Peters or not, its still the same thing....6/one-half dozen/the other. |
