Sneed traded to Titans

Terrible trade? Veach got fleeced? Man, the market is what the market is. He can't force someone to give KC a high pick AND pay that salary. You take the deal you can get when you've decided to pay Jones.

It frees up some cash, and although so many want to cry that all that are left is scrubs, guys we picked up on the cheap are a big reason we won the Super Bowl just a few months ago. We won because of DEPTH. We weathered injuries better than everyone else because of it.

It is what it is. Let's get on with it, and win the damned thing again.

I'm usually the optimist, but why wouldn't they have him play on the Tag if there wasn't any immediate compensation this year? Unless there is more to this story or more moves coming, it's just an odd decision.

Sounds like his knee might not be in the best condition.

Maybe they think something is better than nothing? I dunno maybe the team doctor thinks his knee is a timebomb that will explode at anytime so they got what they could.

You dont wanna pay 19 mill and have him blow a knee 4 games in then you're stuck holding that bag.

That's like the only explanation that makes sense.

But if Sneed has another career year and his knee isn't a problem, then this trade is gonna look VERY foolish.

This is all about his knee, odds are they think they got his best years and he's a timebomb.

If you don’t think it went wrong

An older Charlton Davis got significantly more compo last week. We got bent over. Irrespective of what Mahomes does or who Veach drafts.

They are not related

Shit. That's a really good point.

Davis isn't half as good as Sneed. Nowhere close.

**** - this is just so bad that it defies belief.

All I can say is his knee must be far worse than anyone really knows.

So there's literally nothing that could've happened that you would've criticized.

Got it.

Anyone that thought he was coming back was fooling themselves.

Was Davis demanding a huge contract and has a dodgy knee? If not then it's not the same.

If you were completely unwilling to keep him on the tag (and we clearly were) then you don't ****ing tag him.

It's a bad bluff. It is, at best, mitigation.

If Sneed knows his knee is that bad he has every reason to refuse to play on it, if you were told your knee could go at anytime this is his 1 chance.

He was going to play on the tag.

We weren't willing to make him do so.

There's zero chance a guy with $4 million in career earnings says he won't take $20 million guaranteed to play for a year. He's set for life at that point.

So again - another bluff called. And agents will remember.

Are you this dumb? The only way the Chiefs were going to get ANY compensation was by tagging him and then trading him. By tagging and trading him at least we got something. Otherwise he’s a free agent and we’d get nothing. Once again Veach is playing chess.
