Needs a couple more awards/honors, IMO. I'd be surprised if that didn't matter to him.

So it’s universally agreed that the best FA available for the Chiefs is….Trey Smith. Guys. This FA class sucks. It’s one of the weaker classes in recent years. Compare this to last year when Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, Danielle Hunter, Josh Jacobs or Christian Wilkins. Not even close. And yeah this deal makes a lot of sense if Thuney is close to the end, which it appears he is.

I have no idea what Veach is going to do, but I do know freaking out in February is dumb. |

Could Vern Beach sign Smith and then trade him for draft picks?

So we're at the appeal to authority part of the cope, I see. None of us are qualified to be in an NFL scouting department so there's no point discussing anything, ever, apparently.

Copied from another thread. About the 7 minute mark really explains the thought process here

And just so we're clear-
I don't really have a strong opinion on re-signing Smith vs. not. I don't know what the other plans are. If you can tell me the whole plan, THEN I'll have an opinion. I see multiple paths, and I don't know if I even have any idea what paths Veach is seeing. I'm just sitting on my couch, digesting my lovely wife's spaghetti and meatballs. When you simply look at the whole picture of the offensive line, ages, and how many years are left on the large contracts we have, it's not hard to see a fairly easy path to affording, say, an Alaric Jackson AND a Trey Smith when you consider that Thuney is 33 and about done with his deal and Taylor can be cut in '26. So, it's not crazy. I also see why they may NOT want to go as high as Smith might go. I'm also sure regardless that Veach has a line in the sand with ALL of these guys that he's not going to go over AND a few pivot plans to go to if that comes to pass. So relax. It'll be ok. |

“It comes down to him setting his feet and trusting the protection up front.”
Yeah. No need to analyze this one any further..

You are comparing one team that you follow to a combined 31 other teams that you don't follow. So of course you've heard about some of the hits other teams have made in the latter rounds, without hearing about all the misses they've had in those late rounds since you don't follow them.

Saying, "I don't think I like the idea of paying Smith at a record setting deal." Throwing a hissy fit is silly and not having a discussion. |

Was trash in pretty season, a huge down grade compared to Smith, couldn't even move to the other side and unseat Caliendo. Draftubators anointed him as a starter and now look at them wrong.... again

Yep. Couple that with his earlier comment about LT being one of the priorities along with DL and it's pretty clear he's going to come out swinging for their top available OT early.
