Hate to see Sneed go. He's earned a chance at generational wealth for his family and I'm happy for him. That being said, I hope this is not a bad transaction. BV has been amazingly astute up to this point, but every time you throw the dice, occasionally you'll get snake eyes. We let Thornhill Fuller and Ward leave as FAs, and overcame all that just fine. You can't have an all-pro at every position. The economics of the NFL doesn't allow it. You know other teams covet ALL of our starting players because they have the rings. Teams that are trying to compete want guys who have been through the big battles. I also wish BV would have sent him to the NFC, but maybe that just wasn't possible. There's still a lot of wheeling and dealing to go before August training camp. Let's hold judgement until we see the whole picture.
