Chiefs trade Tyreek Hill to the Dolphins

[Dante84]

Will update OP with more info.

Here it is: The #Chiefs are trading six-time Pro Bowl WR Tyreek Hill to the #Dolphins, sources tell me and @TomPelissero.

The return is a first-round pick and more, while Hill gets a contract extension that puts him among the highest paid WRs in the NFL.

Chiefs are trading six-time Pro-Bowl WR Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins for five draft picks: a 2022 1st-round pick (No. 29), a 2nd-round pick (No. 50) and a 4th-round pick, as well as 4th- and 6th-round picks in the 2023 draft, sources tell ESPN.

Feel for Tyreek tbh because the guy was in a rock and a hard place. Could he have taken less money and stayed? Yes. But it's never easy turning down generational wealth when it's right infront of your face. He will always be a hero to me and I'll never forget the great memories he gave us. Just an incredible player.

KC offered generational wealth also, he just wanted more. I think at that point you turn down the extra $$$ and you play for championships, because you'll get paid back twofold.

He turned us down for a few extra million dollars. He was not in a tough situation. It was his ego. He saw what Adams was paid and wanted to be paid similarly. He got exactly what he wanted.

A more mature person would've seen the big picture and turned down that money to play with Mahomes and create a legacy of greatness. But this is Tyreek we're talking about. He only realizes it when it's way too late.

He wanted the max money and went to a worse qb

What did he think would happen?

Normally when this thread is bumped we discover that Tyreek's bastard army has a few new members.

It wasn't just the ego over Adams contract. It was an inflated sense of worth. He genuinely thought that if KC lost him that would severely impact this team. Just goes to show that they haven't missed a beat without him and I think that stings more for him then the few extra millions.

Would love to see a swan song for Tyreek for the 2026-2027 season...but the more I think about...Im not sure what kind of player he is by that time. You dont bring in a 32 year old receiver with baggage and drama to be the #3 receiver behind Rice and Worthy. Just not worth it. I can say with near certainty Tyreek will never wear a Chiefs jersey again.

If he doesn't play his last year or two here, I'll be utterly shocked.

Like you said, once he's done raking in the cash, he's finishing up in KC. It's quite clear that's his plan. We'll see if the Chiefs are interested in making it a reality, and I hope they do.

He thought he was the reason we kicked ass. He thought he’d go down there and it would be more of the same.

He’s wrong. But that’s what he thought.

I seem to recall that in his first training camp with the Dolphins he said that Tua threw a better ball than Mahomes. Wonder if he still feels that way.

Well so far a starting corner, WR and potentially RT

I was looking back at this and it's amazing the overall haul we ended up with...

2022 1st (29) - Used in trade-up for Trent McDuffie (1-29, 3-94, 4-121 for 1-21)
2022 2nd (50) - Used in trade-down for Skyy Moore (2-50 for 2-54, 5-158), 5th subsequently used in trade-up for Darian Kennard (5-158, 7-233 for 5-145)
2022 4th (121) - Used in trade-up for Trent McDuffie
2023 4th (122) - Used in trade-up for Rashee Rice (2-63, 4-122, 7-249 for 2-55, 6-194), 6th subsequently used for Keondre Coburn
2023 6th (178) - Traded to Dallas for 2024 5th (159), used for OL Hunter Nourzad
Cash for a big signing (impact signings)
2022 - Justin Reid, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Franchise tagged Orlando Brown Jr.
2023 - Jawaan Taylor, Charles Omenihu, Drue Tranquill, Mike Edwards


So we essentially gave up:
WR Tyreek Hill
2022 3-94
2022 7-233
2023 2-63
2023 7-249

for:

CB Trent McDuffie
WR Skyy Moore
OL Darian Kennard
WR Rashee Rice
OL Hunter Nourzad
DT Keondre Coburn
SS Justin Reid
WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling
WR JuJu Smith-Schuster
RT Jawaan Taylor
DE Charles Omenihu
LB Drue Tranquill
FS Mike Edwards

I would pick the money, too. Unless I'm a QB. Let's be honest. 99% of players do.

He'd have been a sure fire first ballot HoF'er like Kelce had he stayed, but he chose money and South Beach (and around 10 kids) over the fame. I get it, but don't look back now, Reek.

Not the spirit of your comment, but I still think he’ll be first-ballot. He needs a few more years of seasoning but I think he’ll get there.
