Veach vindicated in Sneed trade
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ue-quad-injury
Apparently, Sneed missed the last game and will miss the next game due to a quad injury. Sneed was terrific last season while performing despite injury concerns. Given the status of his knee, a big contract was a bad investment. Further, the ability to draft and develop DBs played a huge role in his decision-making. Jaylen Watson was doing a great job replacing Sneed. While McDuffie was the one taking over the no. 1 corner job, it was Watson who moved into the lineup with Sneed's absence. Watson was a well above average corner before getting injured. Imagine the Chiefs cap situation if they tried to fit a deal for Sneed. Would signing Trey Smith and Creed Humphry to extensions have been possible? I also doubt the CHiefs would now have the flexibility to add Hopkins. They had to get Tennessee to eat a lot of contract as it is. I think the Chiefs would have to have performed serious cap contortions to address the WR room if they had signed Sneed. |

Veach did not need vindication. He did the right thing and any reasonable person knew it.

It’s not beach vs Dorsey. Just some clowns trying to take credit away from Dorsey. Someone said he doesn’t get credit for kelce Andy does because he knew him years before the draft. And regardless of the revisionist history Mahomes is a Dorsey pick. Idgaf what the story says about Veach pouring the table for him. There’s a scout in every round pushing for his guy and scouts taking Andy film all the time. It’s called the off season.

I think Kareem would have been a salary cap casualty. He would have wanted above $10M per year and the Chiefs would not be able to pay him. He would have been gone after the 2020 season.

I don’t think there’s much chance we would’ve resigned an expensive RB to a second contract, Hunt or not.

It's not like anyone is saying that we should have kept Dorsey or anything like that. Just acknowledging the fact that the core of this team, Mahomes, Jones, Kelce and until the trade, Hill, were all Dorsey draft picks and are all headed to the hall of fame. It's okay to acknowledge that without saying that he's somehow the better GM and we should have kept him. Veach is the man! He took the roster to the next level after Dorsey rebuilt it from the ashes. We are all grateful for Veach and what he has accomplished.
