Is Gabe Davis gonna be able to play Sunday though?

Damn that's crazy. Had no idea.

Some people don't read mega threads:thumb:

BLASPHEMY

We’re gonna sign Bashaud Breeland if this hits 2,000 posts.

LFG!!!

Thank goodness it's not Bashaud Speaks!

Why?

We can trade him for Charvarious Ward. I forgive him about liking the 49ers more due to how shitty the Chiefs practice facility is.

Double post.

Why?

Did we lean towards doing it or actually do it?

I love you DC. We are just playing around.

^^^ if that doesn’t melt your heart, there’s nothing I can do for you….

Is he worth a 1st? ...I've been thinking a 2nd for sure, but he had a pretty immaculate year this last season.

Yep. I'm big teddy bear after seeing that.

So I thought when you tag a player the compensation in a trade scenario has to be at a minimum a 1st

I’m just a big teddy bear anyway

It's not a megathread when it was started yesterday and is focused on the team's tagging Sneed.

As much as I want to keep Sneed, it would probably make sense if they can trade him for a 1st because we are just a DB factory and every DB we touch turns to gold.

Yes, but they're unlikely to get a first back for him.

I disagree. A thread with over 10 pages that doesn’t say “X” happened but “X may happen” is a megathread. My time is valuable, I prefer to come to CP and find the thread with the title “X happened” and read the article/tweet and be informed instead of clicking page by page to see if anything new has happened since the thread “x may happen” was started.

It’s like a news paper printing the same paper everyday with updates and commentary to the main page article on pages 1-30. It’s dumb. I mean, more power to the MT lovers but I prefer to keep my thread scrolling time to a minimum especially at work. I suppose I could just skip CP all together and google “KC chiefs news” that might actually save me some brain cells at some point. :shrug:

I also assume there are others like me that like to jump in read the news and dip out. So it’s really a PSA.

Going to be honest. I think Sneed definitely has the "system guy" label much like all the great Patriot players had over the years. Guys like Trey Flowers, Kyle Van Noy, etc. did absolutely nothing on other teams. With the incredible numbers Sneed put up there is no other justification to not get a first for him.

His market is definately better than Marcus Peters but not significantly better.

Not the mention having to read through multiple pages of two or three guys in a spat just trying to se if there are any actually updates.

Funny I had no idea I thought it was just a first round pick.

Too fat/ Omaha

This is the way. Trade sneed. Resign jones. Reload in the draft with all that draft capital. If we hit on the picks we could get from a sneed trade, we could be a patriots level dynasty. Too much?

A sneed’s a fine something that all people need

His market isn't better than a guy who went onto an NFL field with no ****ing socks on?

That's idiotic.

He's closer to 2 1's and a 4th Jalen Ramsey than no socks or tackling Peters that the Chiefs couldn't wait to dump.

This has been gone over 100 times already. Sneed is older, not even close to the same player, has a knee and concussion issues, is the most penalized secondary player in the league and has never been a pro bowler or an all pro. Your looking at something closer to what Slay was traded for. I love Sneed as much as anyone but you have to be realistic.

Lol @ pro bowler

Yeah, the guy who shut down basically the NFLs top 5 wide receivers this year alone isn't valuable.

People who complain about Sneed's penalties obviously don't watch any games. He will purposefully take small penalties to get in the heads of #1 WRs and literally break them for the rest of the game. Oh no, an illegal hands to the face. So what, he limited the #1 WR to 4 catches for 35 yards and no TDs after that penalty. He has them hesitating off the line of scrimmage because they don't want to get punched in the mouth.

It seems the general consensus is that at most we get a #2. There has been only a handful that got a #1. Doesn't mean he wasn't the best or near the best coverage CB in the league.

I didn't say he wasnt of value. But these are the facts and this is what the argument against him will be like it or not. I'm not the bad guy. I'm just prepping you guys for the let down when its not two 1st round picks.

How crazy is it that Washington traded Champ Bailey + a 2nd round pick to Denver for Clinton Portis 20 years ago.

The only RB in today’s NFL that you’d even consider trading a shutdown CB like Sneed for in a similar trade is Christian McCaffrey.

Just curious when did the Franchise tag change? I remember it used to work a little differently - but I don't remember how it worked exactly and when it changed.

It's like you didn't even watch the games. This was his best year by far. He's 27, not on the wrong side of 30. He has missed two games in the last three years. While compensation is likely to be a second and change, I wouldn't be surprised if Dan Campbell paid pick 29. Got any other shit takes?

I'd love to have pick 29. I wouldn't even use it to trade up, but imagine coming out of the first with (insert your WR of choice) and a LT?

That's a killer

Maybe I'm just imagining things

i wouldn't be surprised etiher. Theres been some two firsts talk "like Ramsey". I love sneed and would keep him. However my homer glasses arent thick enough to make me think hes getting a Ramsey haul. Just prepping this board for the next round of post Peters trade fall out. Dumbass. ;)

To get that kind of haul for him they just need a GM like Les Snead. Doubt there are any GMs out there thinking like that right now.

Exactly. I'm not down on Sneed in the least. I actually think i prefer him over Jones. I'm just being real.

I would trade Sneed to Atlanta for Pitts and/or pick 43.

No RB is worth trading for these days. Maybe a 7th.

Football gods, please send us a really stupid front office trade like this. PLEASE!

Part of me wants some ridiculous haul for Sneed, because it would be huge in keeping the team elite.

Part of me REALLY wants a ridiculous haul, just so I can read reactions from fans of other teams.

Someone call the Vikings

I’m expecting something the equivalent of a mid second round pick.

Either a pick around 45-55. Or a combination of picks to equal that.

Maybe an exchange of first round picks and mid rounder.

Something in that ballpark. Anything more, and I’ll be ecstatic.

I think that's probably close but I doubt anyone exchanges firsts with us unless they're picking two or three spots ahead. I seriously doubt he gets us into the top 20.

What contender is a DB away?

I have a hard time seeing anyone but a contender being interested in Sneed at his price tag and age, so it’d almost have to be a team that was in the playoffs. Which means, we wouldn’t go any higher in the first than 20-ish.

Maybe something like a swap with Houston of first round picks (23 for 32) plus pick 59.

Draft Tek has that as a gain of 470 points, which is the equivalent of pick 43.

I don’t think a single DB changes things THAT much, but plenty of teams need defensive help.

All of me wants to prison rape another team in a trade.

All. Of. Me.

I think I want a first swap more depending on the swap. But we’re never high in the first anymore. Getting in the late teens to 20s could net us something nice.

Just getting a head of Buffalo to watch TBD meltdown before the draft would be nice

Say the Falcons would give you their 2nd....you then could turn around and send that to the Eagles for Aj Brown.

Anyone interested in that?

Why would the Eagles do that?

LOL they aren't trading Brown for a 2

They're not getting a 1, with what is coming in the draft.

Can totally see them trading Sneed for a mid 2 and day 3 pick and going OT, WR (Sneed pick) and DL with the first 3 picks.

That doesn’t answer my question. Why are the Eagles trading Brown?

If you believe all the drama and such that came out of there, he's the logical conclusion on the one getting traded.

Other team's fans are at such a disadvantage. They don't know what jet to look for. Their team's, the Chiefs, Swift's, Frank Clark's...

100%

Lions need more than just top end DB to fix their defense but they're right there.

Teams know we aren't paying Sneed and Jones. And without Jones signed, and with Sneed tag slapped, we'll have money tied up for a 2nd year and won't be able to do much in free agency.

We don't have time - this should go quickly like Hill did.

That said we really don't have a lot of leverage. There's no reason for any team to offer more than a mid-2nd...

They should have lost to us in the SB this year...

<a href="https://ibb.co/jfgVSRL"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/bmzHkJr/Rape-Game.jpg" alt="Rape-Game" border="0"></a>

AJ Brown is a guy who I think has seen his best years go by already

Is Sneed and Grant an accounting firm?

You're making this way more complicated than it is. The offer sheet is basically irrelevant. No one is going to sign him to an offer sheet, because no one is willing to give up two first round picks for him. Sneed talks to other teams, the Chiefs and the team work out trade compensation, Sneed is traded, and then signs with the new team.

Theoretically we could keep Sneed and force him to play on the tag, but that's not ideal for anyone. Sneed is 27 and needs to get paid now, and we would probably decline to tag him again next year and lose him for nothing.

Has any team ever used the Franchise Tag two years in a row on the same player?

Yes. Many.

I think teams used to be able to do it 3 years in a row.

Washington did it with Kirk I'm pretty sure.

It isn't out of the realm of possibility - Dallas gave up 2, 1st round picks for Joey Galloway - but there are quite a world of possibilities. My hope is that a CJ extension allows us to extend Sneed. I just don't find a 2nd and 3rd round pick as compensation as palatable.

They’re about to pay out the ass for Fields. And they just cut their backup TE. I’d pick up Jonnu Smith and kick the tires though.

Franchise tag and non-exclusive franchise tag are two different things. The Ravens did a non-exclusive tage with Lamar last season and those rules you shared would have been in place. We just franchised Sneed so he will either play for the Chiefs at $19.2m or whatever the actual tag is or we will trade him to a team he has a verbal committment with for a contract and that we agree with the compensation. If we put the non-exclusive tag on him, no team would negotiate as they would have to give up two first.
