We could trade Tyreek because we still had prime Kelce. If they let Higgins walk and trade Chase, it's full-boat rebuild time for them. And for what Higgins will cost vs. what Chase will cost, I think you're more likely to get production commensurate with the cost from Chase. Higgins is far more of a one-trick pony than Chase is, IMO. They should've traded Higgins a year ago and gotten a Chase extension done then. They have REALLY screwed the pooch here and it may have done more damage than they can reasonably undo. All because they beat Mahomes once and convinced themselves that they were better than they were. Won the battle...lost the war. Badly.

Trading chase wouldn't be wise |

They should have traded Chase and have Higgins a fair deal. They could have got a bunch of picks and done something with rhe defense. We did. They could have done the same and should have. Now they will get nothing for Higgins and Chase contract demands will kill their cap.

Then again they could still trade chase and keep Higgins. Chase isn't an FA.

However, I think they mistakenly believed they were going to go back to the SB instead of thinking about keeping that window open for as long as possible with a franchise QB. Now they are going to likely lose Higgins for nothing and you still have to pay Chase. |

Chase is 24 and clearly a Hall of Fame talent. I don’t think trading him would be wise. It made more sense for us to go that route because Tyreek was 28.
In general I think you have to give a top 5 draft pick at a premier position who appears to be better than advertised at least one extension. |

They're the 28th ranked defense now, they have plenty of ammo to get that around top 20 or so |

Their GM can’t draft. Look at the last 3 years. Not much from the draft.
Need to fire that guy

They're going to have a high first round draft pick. Odds are they will get a good player there by default. But look at their recent draft history on defense. This is going to be a lot harder than you're making it out to be. |

So far, that's exactly what they've done. They took a top 10 D and made it bottom of the league in 2 years. That's on the GM. There's already a good case the GM should be fired.
