It's ludicrous to imply they wouldn't trade Tyreek now - ESPECIALLY in hindsight. It worked out wonderfully for the team and will continue to pay dividends in the next few years as all of the guys we got for him are on rookie contracts.

I believe Veach said that last week, but I may have misheard.
I do agree that having the rookie deals is great, but having an elite player like Tyreek would also be nice if you could have traded Jones instead.
