Still don't see how this would work with his monster cap hit contract. I don't think helping pay some of 2024 solves that problem.

If there is some workaround to the contract problem I could get on board with this. Cooper Kupp was really good right out of the gate as a rookie. Of all the players available, he is probably the most sure-fire immediate contributor.

I'd still prefer Diontae just because of Kupp's durability issues. But if we somehow landed Kupp and he managed to stay healthy it could be really perfect.

Now we're talking. Send them Pick 64, Brett.

Are Kupp’s injuries soft tissue repeat type issues or more usage issues getting worn down? Haven’t really paid much attention to them.

That $9.1M goes to $7.5M at trade deadline. Thats not that much money IMO.

NOW if the Rams are paying future salaries? I say pull the trigger!

Balto 10-22-2024 12:04 PM

Rams get:
Skyy Moore
Chiefs 2025 2nd rounder
Chiefs get:
Kupp and Rams pay down as much as they can on his contract.
Rams 6th rounder

THEN

Panthers get:
Chiefs 3rd rounder
Rams 6th
Chiefs 7th

Honestly I'm pretty sure at least one of his ankle injuries and possibly both were caused by hip-drop tackles, which is why I'm not convinced he's a brokedick.

You name it he's suffered it. He is injury prone. Latest injury was a high ankle sprain that from my understanding was a result of a hip-drop tackle. Expected to play this Thursday night.

If the Chiefs want to make absolutely sure that no trade gets done, then by all means they should try to wedge Skyy Moore into the proposed deal.

This has been addressed here at CP. Sky Moore has pictures of Matt Nagy playing nude twister with that Tanner’s waitress.

Say it is our 2nd round pick they want. Do it.

You've got the Titans 3rd that's gonna be 3 picks later.

Rainbarrel 10-22-2024 12:58 PM

Mahomes and Hardman didn't really connect until about his third year. He was useful in other areas though

O.city 10-22-2024 01:03 PM

He's had like what, 4 ankle issues in the past couple years?

I don't care for that. Old players get dinged up alot too.
