Dude barely practiced the last year here. Phantom knee injury? GTFO with that.

And YOUR speculation is that Brett Veach is stupid.

And he still plays almost literally all the time. Consistently amongst the defenders that get the most snaps, both here and now in Tennessee.

Yeah, Bret Veach is stupid.

OR

Do you think KC had serious concerns that the knee was going to hold up long term?

It seems clear that KC didn't think Sneed was a good investment long term.

Why do you think that is?

Sure Clark can do a Mahomes restructure but that’s only like $20 million max.

How are you fitting another $15 ish million for Sneed?
Taylor restructure would have done it.

Thinking Brett Veach made a mistake =\= thinking he's stupid. No GM is perfect, and it's perfectly valid to disagree with decisions made.

It may turn out to be a mistake, but we don't know that now.

You've been pissed about the return since the trade happened, and that's just not an opinion based in reality. Big contract+draft picks+injury concerns= 3rd rounder. That's just reality.

In KC, you know that he coaches loved him, whole team loved him. Knee was a problem.

Seems to me, Veach wasn't willing to bet $20m per that it was going to hold up long-term.

We'll see how it goes, but I don't fault the thought process.

For Veach has been phenomenal at selecting the pieces of this roster FA ring in the cap and draft.

To criticize singular moves as if they happen in a vacuum is silly. Veach has access to the specific training and medical staff that has him trade Sneed versus re-signing him and so far we are 2-0 against a couple elite teams on our way to a history making third championship in a row, while missing a few big pieces (Omenihu, Hollywood, now Pacheco etc)
In the Mahomes era KC had one CB drafted in the first round on the roster…..one. That CB was McDuffie. Somehow they have gone to four SBs while winning three. It would have been nice to keep Sneed, but what he was worth it just wasn’t practical. KC at least salvaged a 3rd round pick for him which they can use to restock a position of need this offseason vs seeing him walk.

First - Ward is NOWHERE NEAR the player that Sneed is.

Second - You can't keep everyone. Sneed and his knees had to play a part in that decision.

yeah, I really believe it wasn't so much about being able to afford Sneed so much as it was a calculation as to whether we'd be paying a guy who couldn't play that kind of money. Can we afford to have $20m residing in the training room? What are the odds that is how it goes down?

I think that was the calculus.

Chiefs never gave up an opening drive TD when Sneed was here!

Shhhhh. He likes to think he’s always right while gloating and patting himself on the back. Just let him live in his world.

There’s really just little point in arguing over it at this point.

We haven’t even made the pick that we got in the trade yet!

This team is going to lose good players every year. It is what it is.
