Let’s be clear… in order for the Chiefs to “win” this trade, Veach needs to land an instant WR1 in the draft.
If the likes of Miami, Cincinnati and Minnesota can all hit on instant impact WR1’s in recent drafts then there is no excuse for Veach not to aggressively identify/draft a WR1 and for Andy Reid and his coaching staff to ensure the rookie WR has immediate success. If the idea is to replace Tyreek with a combination of broke dick complimentary (at best) free agent WR’s and then draft Pringle/DRob-level replacements in the middle rounds of the draft… then the trade is a failure. You don’t waste a season with a 26 year Patrick Mahomes by doing a “reset”, or “step back”… it’s still Super Bowl or bust. |

Don't if this was posted or not but sounds like we were close until the Davante deal.

I don't think anyone really knows what Veach will do in this situation. It's partly his own fault because he's traded picks for players, but Veach has only had 1 first round pick in 4 years, and that was pick 32 at the end of the 1st round so that barely counts. The team has been so good he's barely had any top 50 picks even.

And here, Meck and DJ make the EXACT SAME POINT in a more verbose manner, and everyone says, 'huh, makes sense.' |

Regardless of Tyreek staying or not we need a replacement for Charvarious Ward, Chris Jones (contract ends after 2023) , Frank Clark and Okafor/Ingram. Dude our DL and corner situations are BAD. We now have 4 picks in the top 62 and cap space open to solve those problems. This is a very good draft for WR, DL and corner. We have a great opportunity. It’s up to Veach and the scouts to find the right players |

And then all I've done is waste my time and given you another reason to do what you want to do all along, deride my positions without rebutting them. You disagree, that's fine. You assert I'm making shit up or lying, or having an ulterior motive, . . . not as fine. |

The other missing factor here is we have Andy Reid. He's going to get the most out of the guys we do have. |

The Chiefs didn’t become the Chiefs under Andy Reid through free agency.
All these guys we talk about. Mahomes, Tyreek, Kelce, Jones. They were all drafted. That’s how you win in this league. Draft well |

Are you serious? Franchise tag hill next year and then trade him, which is what the packers did with davante Adams. There is No reason to trade hill this year.
