Unexpected things happening, call it

I doubt that we could get better than that. And we might have to give a late pick back to get that

No competent GM is going to trade a 1 for Sneed's last year just to have to pay him later.

So, you're saying that we trade him to the Donks? Oh, wait, they don't have a first round pick. But their GM came from Minnesota, so maybe there's a chance?

Seriously, you're probably right. When it was mentioned that there was talk of a late second for him, I wasn't expecting it. But, if someone is willing to give it, I would be glad to see the Chiefs take it. It's not really that hard to imagine. Corners go in the top ten every year, so there's value there for a proven corner still on his rookie deal to a team drafting too late in the round to get one of the top guys.
