Tyron Smith rather than Donovan Smith.

They could have been active in the RB free agency market to get a legit RB2 to compliment Pacheco.

If your mindset is that there were no upgrades available over just resigning Donovan Smith, MEHHH, etc, then you are just myopically stupid.

They could have done that with this salary cap flexibility two weeks ago.

Yeah - ****ing knee really wrecked him.

I’d be hesitant to give out big guaranteed money to a 27 year old corner with a bum knee. You don’t give out contracts based on past performance. Corners have a short shelf life in the NFL.

Done.

Again - a day ago it was 'keep sneed or get draft capital, either is great!' Now it's 'man, good thing we dumped sneed for nothing but cap space...'

Was anyone at all okay with that prospect yesterday? Eager to do it? Now it just elicits a shoulder shrug or worse, vehement defense?

This is rearview mirror rationalizing.

If we weren't prepared to restructure, we shouldn't have tagged him. It's a bad practice and it's going to cause us more problems going forward because now the tag bluff has no teeth to it.

I honestly didn’t care. Once there were less than a handful of teams interested…we should have realized we weren’t getting shit for him. We all would have been bitching the second he didn’t report or sat out because of some “injury”.

He wasn’t getting paid by us. Sucks we didn’t get more. I’m done giving a shit.

The same Verderame who said the Colts trade didn't happen because Sneed wanted too much money even though the Chiefs had never talked to the Colts about a potential trade?

Oh man broadcast missed that, scary! McDuffie had Deebo locked down

Any chance he fails his medical and remains a chief?

LMAO

Tyron Smith. The LT who can’t stay healthy. Guess I shouldn’t expect much from the guy who wanted Wylie back because he would be cheaper than Taylor and “just as good”.

And yet we threw gobs of money at a 30 year old DT...

That was absolutely a contract based on past performance. Jones isn't going to play at the level of that deal.

If he fails his medical I think that's an even worse problem for us.

Sneed originally injured his knee in practice the week before the Eagles Super Bowl. Then 5 months later came back and had to miss all of camp/preseason with swelling to that knee. Then he was on the injury report throughout the season with that knee causing him problems. Doesn’t matter if he didn’t miss a game. That’s 2023.

There’s a reason so many teams stopped calling. If you’re a GM interested in Sneed and you learn that not only is he wanting $22 million AAV with $55 million gauranteed, but he’s a 27 year old corner who has never been an all pro and has had a knee issue for over a year?

That’s called a depreciating asset.

All stuff they should have felt out while at the combine. They decided to hold out hoping for a market to bubble up and oops in this case.

Lucky Veach can draft players. (& has Mahomes).

The fact that yes, had this trade happened at the start of free agency would have benefited the Chiefs is precisely why no other team facilitated that early on. The other teams are trying to knock us off our pedestal, not grease the wheels for our threepeat.

super gay, whatever

Wallcrawler 03-22-2024 10:21 PM

Meh. It's better than letting him walk.

If Sneed were 25 it would be a whole other story. He had one really good year, albeit being the most penalized defender in football along the way. Spags was able to maximize every last drop of effectiveness from Sneed.

The knee is in my opinion a strawman used to leverage against his value, because the knee clearly did not hamper his play.

Sneed is gonna get paid, but he's gonna go down in flames in Tennessee when he doesn't have a coordinator using him to the best of his ability, and doesn't have a Trent McDuffie playing opposite him.

Enjoy the rings, enjoy the money.
