Chiefs Tag Sneed and Grant him permission to seek trade.

[DenverChief]

BREAKING: The #Chiefs have placed the franchise tag on CB L'Jarius Sneed, sources tell @BleacherReport. It will cost a little over $19M.

The Kansas City Chiefs could be saying goodbye to one of their defensive stars.

The Chiefs have granted cornerback L'Jarius Sneed permission to seek a trade, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Wednesday. Rapoport added the Chiefs could elect to use their franchise tag on Sneed ahead of next Tuesday's deadline and then trade the fourth-year defensive back.

If Kansas City does indeed tag Sneed by the March 5 deadline, the organization will have until mid-July to either lock him into a larger extension or presumably make good on its word and trade him. The one-year franchise tag for cornerbacks is set at $19.8 million for the 2024 season.

The 2020 fourth-rounder has blossomed into a stud for the Chiefs during his rookie contract, developing a reputation for sticky coverage with 10 interceptions, 40 passes defensed, four forced fumbles and 6.5 sacks in his career.

Teams are sure to come calling, but they'll have to compete with the K.C.'s negotiating power and the lure of sticking it out with the team that drafted him to make a run at a Super Bowl three-peat.

I feel like we should still get another pick from them, like their 4th?

We would be lucky to get the 15th let alone another 4th. I would be effing thrilled with a low 2nd and maybe a 4th/5th.

If you can get 5 picks between 32 and 100 and there is talent to fill some of our holes and save some money for some FA bargains as well.

And we will have added 12-15 draft picks to that roster by then.

Swapping first round picks, plus they get Sneed seems like a win for the Colts more so than the Chiefs.

Oh im not advocating for it.

Im just saying its not impossible and i wouldnt be mad if that is what happened.

I think we have a potential to get our own justin Jefferson in the draft, even if we dont move up.

My preference is to sign mooney for an identical contract to the MVS one, take legette at 32, and address TE later in the draft.

This makes our offense dangerous on every level of the field like it was in 2018.

Plus KC had just lost the AFCCG because the defense was atrocious. They needed to change the culture and Clark was one part of that.

Yep totally agree. The more I look at Leggett the more interesting he becomes. And Mooney is an obvious move to me.

That would mean that we received the equivalent of pick 23-ish for Snead.

No brainer if the Bears would accept that.

Once again....why wouldn't the Bears just re-sign their own CB who is a FA? Jaylon Johnson is pretty damn good himself.

It doesn’t have to be the Bears

You are out of your ****ing mind if you think the Bears would ever do this. Sneed isn't as valuable as one would think...because they have to pay him too.
