Unpopular Thought: Trade McDuffie
The Chiefs latest dynasty run was a direct product of the Tyreek trade. Now money is tight, draft resources are slim, and the young players from Veach's great recent drafts are getting to the age to be paid so will be leaving soon. And that's aside from the glaring need for a franchise LT.

Any chance we could get back what makes it worthwhile to give him up this offseason?

Yea, with Kelce and Jones getting up there, one possibly retiring, it would be REALLY smart to trade away a blue chipper still on a rookie deal.

It isn’t the craziest idea. If we want to rebuild then trading away blue chippers can go a very long way. We only get one more year of his cheap contract and then he’s going to get crazy expensive. And this is a position where the chiefs have been exceptional at finding quality players.

Keep in mind that arguably a big reason we ended up with mcduffie in the first place is because we traded tyreek hill. He’s kind of the only trade chip that could actually haul anything

Veach has been giving out a lot of max contracts lately. Why would he not do that for McDuffie? He signs next off season, you can have year 5 to help spread the money over the length of the contract.

It’s not a matter of money, but it is a side benefit if we were to make a blockbuster trade. Losing him gives you the cap space to add another veteran. So you’re not just trading him for picks (I get that it’s more complicated because he’s still on rookie contract).

It’s more about positional value. We’ve had tremendous success losing DBs and finding them even with our draft position. We havent figured out how to do that at LT yet. For many years we had shit QBs and we insisted that we draft guys like geno even if they came from underwhelming draft classes. It took a big and bold move to finally get out of our draft spot to pick a qb of the future after decades of trying.

Again, I’m not supporting this move. I’m just saying it’s not the craziest idea if you have confidence to get a guy you really like at a position we’ve otherwise struggled to figure out

You have to also figure in positional value when trading McDuffie for a LT. Good left tackles are worth way more than a top flight CB. Even McDuffie doesn't bring enough back in a trade to make it worth it. He's looking for a second contract, not his third.

The reason the Tyreek trade worked was because we got McDuffie.

He's 24 years old.

The sooner people stop freaking the **** out and realize we've got our next young wave of blue chippers in McDuffie, Worthy, and Rice, the better off we'll all be.

Low key I think Hicks might be one of those guys too. Just a gut feeling that he's going to take a huge step forward next year.

Its just a thought. Getting top value means getting rid of something that hurts.

He'll want to get paid like one of the top guys very soon after 2 all-pros, at a position where players can fall off quickly (can, not will), and that Veach has proven can refill at minimal cost.


(Devil's advocate, McDuffie is one of my favorite players)

I agree with this, just keep retooling thru the draft and filter in a few FA's.
