It sucks, no doubt about it, tough pill to swallow. But when you're paying certain positions a bulk of the cap, you have to try and read the tea leaves. You would have had to replace Tyreek eventually, who knows if talks broken down, if the relationship was damaged beyond repair, if both sides were bull headed with Tyreek set on $30 million per year and Veach set on another FA or two, it sucks.
Tyreek is gone now, gotta replace him and I hope they've been doing their homework and have a receiver pegged. Unless you hit a diamond in the rough, you aren't replicating production like Hill, not playstyle or speed, but production, the numbers he produced. I would be okay for them to use their picks to trade up to get one that they truly believe in.

All slated to come off the board before your picks at 29 and 30. If this trade was to rebuild the defense with young talent, then that's your mission, but Veach is in the seat now. You trade away one of the Big 3 on any team, you better produce afterwards. Veach has already kinda flubbed this off season in the minds of many, if it's a bad draft class and the team is noticeably worse, and the slide continues from our Super Bowl win, to Super Bowl loss, to home AFC Championship loss, to Divisional round or worse loss, then all the blame centers on Veach.
