Based on historical precedent and the draft value chart, Marcus Peters' trade compensation should be something along the lines of:
2018 3rd round pick #87
2018 5th round pick #160
2019 3rd round pick
Personally, I hope that is the floor...anything above and beyond, this ends up being a decent trade despite the fact that right now it feels like we are going to get fleeced.

This sort of deal makes a ton of sense from the Chiefs perspective as the team probably values having two #1 picks next season (lets say its ours at #13 and the Rams at #27) than getting their pick this year.
Gives the Chiefs four second and third round picks to add a ton of depth which this team really needs. Then in 2019 you can got out an traft a couple studs to build out the defense.
1. The timeline works better
2. Helps the Chiefs manage the cap longer - more players on rookie deals. Allows us to keep our young talent in place.

If that ends up the case, I can live with it...
