I think you’re right. They either 1) have a trade partner or 2) have a deal and didn’t want him to get cold feet.

I doubt they have a deal. I would guess his agent probably indicated they wanted to test the market. This prevents them from doing that and if Smith wants long term security the Chiefs are the only game in town or on the flip side the Chiefs might be betting that there are a number of teams with a ton of cap room, OL problems and not enough FA's to sign. So maybe get a 3rd/4th pick back.
But I doubt they have a partner and I doubt they have a deal, this is Veech rolling the dice and making a educated bet.
