If you can trade him for a top 50 pick, it means they probably use a top 100 pick on a guy like Milnum and call it a day. Makes a ton of sense honestly.

Always did.
But it feels like the only realistic landing spot was Seattle. And honestly, that was born out by them using a mid-1st on Gray Zabel.
They OBVIOUSLY wanted a guard.
But that move didn't happen. Which to me says that the Chiefs aren't willing to do it. Because if the Seahawks could've gotten Trey Smith - a known commodity and very good player who fits their specific offense better than he fits ours -- for a 2nd round pick and kept their 1st rounder to target someone like Golden or Campbell...sure seems like they'd have done it, no?
Yeah, costs them cap, but they don't have a ton of guys to be spending that on. And it simultaneously raises their floor (with Smith over Zabel) and likely their ceiling by allowing them to target a different spot.
If we were willing to deal Smith for a 2nd, I think it would've happened last night before Seattle made that move for Zabel.
