Calling a pick that is going to be a top 80 pick and likely top 75 a 4th rd value is so bizarre.
The 4th rd usually starts at pick 101. That’s at least a 20 pick difference so almost a full rd. Goes to show that people don’t value draft picks until April when they are actually used. |

I don't know what to tell you guys. Do you not realize future picks hold less value at the moment? I thought that was common knowledge.

I guess I'm becoming more chill about the situation because the team is already solid, the only glaring hole right now is LT and another WR. Idk, its not great compensation, but again, Veach's track record of 3 SBs in 5 years speaks for itself. |

Yeah that's how the draft chart works. I think that matters more for teams that are trying to build a contender. When you are planning for the next ten years, not just the next couple, it doesn't make much sense.

As of spring of '25, it will be a relatively high 3rd round pick. What I think this tells us is that Veach is looking at the future, always. Teams trying to climb the mountain have a different mindset than the team on top of the mountain. |

It seems clear that Veach preferred Sneed gone at the franchise tag cap hit -- whether that's because of signing free agents with that money or he didn't want to deal with a potential hold-out or whatever. Obviously he hoped there would be a bidding war over Sneed, but that didn't occur.
I just don't think paying Sneed $20 million this year is something Veach thought to be a good idea. |

So, who is first in line to take Sneed's place? I'd think with KCs track record of winning SBs without an elite defense, would allow fans to chill a bit and have faith in the braintrust. Losing Sneed isn't the move that's going to seriously hamper your ability to win again in '24. |

For now, it's worth a 4th, because if we tried to use it to make a move this offseason, that's what the value is. But yes, it's very likely going to be a top 75 pick, and people acting like that's nothing are being silly. |

But yeah, the compensation is still low and surprisingly so. It definetly feels like we got fleeced. Im guessing better trade compensation was on the board, but it doesnt matter if they aren't willing to pay him too. |

All signs point to that money being used on extensions imo. |

McDuffie Watson Williams Reid Connor Cook This is fine. Its not elite but it's not a weakness either. If we lose, its not going to be because of this DB core. |

I think everyone understands that concept, what is debatable is HOW MUCH more value a 2024 pick has. Calling it a 4th rnd pick is hyperbolic...it could only credibly be considered a 4th rnd pick if Tenn makes the playoffs and next year's draft class is once-a-decade weak. Tennessee could just as likely win 5 games (stout conference, Levis could bust), and next year's draft class could be better than average and that 3rd could land quality closer to a 2nd than 4th.
