Oh you haven't heard? Hill is a selfish player who cares more about money than winning and who got figured out and held down by defenses last year.

Reek won, and that part is over. MIA may yet lose. That part we can reasonably surmise over time. As far as us. If we win going away, it will be easy to surmise. If we lose, it becomes murky because we'll never know what we could have been with Reek. |

Too early to be declaring any winners.
0 games have happened since the trade and while Tyreek got more money it could cost him a gold jacket in the end. |

The trade is over. The trade was over BEFORE the draft.
"It's too early" is about judging what the parties do with the opportunity in front of them. They are separate things. If I sell my 1994 honda civic for $200,000, I won that deal, right? If I then spend that $200,000 losing lottery tickets, did I somehow NOT win the deal for my Honda Civic? Of course not. I just wasted my resources. If the person who bought my honda civic sells it for $199,500, did they retroactively make a good deal when they bought it from me? No. They just managed to recover from their mistake. Yay. You have to separate the deal from the management of acquired resources after. |

5 picks for a WR is insane, especially when your QB is Tua. |

Feel free to watch his introductory press conference after the trade if you like, but he was asked (and yes, I’m paraphrasing) ‘how tough was it to leave the Chiefs?’ His response: ‘It was tough, real tough, but when somebody comes to you with a lot of money, feelings change. Those guys are Hall of Famers and they’re going to continue to do their thing, Coach Reid is gonna do his thibg. They’ll be alright’
Again, I’m paraphrasing, but that’s the gist of it. I interpret that as he knew he was leaving a Super Bowl team to go to another team, not because they offered him a lot of money, but because they offered him a shitload of money. Not really sure what other way you could interpret that. I love Tyreek and appreciate everything he did for KC and wish him luck. No ill will here. But make no mistake, he absolutely chose money over winning by leaving KC to go to Miami. Doesn’t make him a bad person, but that’s the reality. |

Hill didn’t win. He may think he did now, but he’ll remember what the good ol’ days were like as he’s watching KC win multiple Super Bowls from his couch.

It’s crazy to think about but after we see this years offense it could prove that Tyreek was holding us back from what we could be

1) Tyreek was our best skill position player on offense while he was here. 2) The Chiefs can be a better more balanced offense without Tyreek. Both of these things can be true. |

Naw, Tyreek was not holding us back. All we needed was a more consistent running game. A legit #2 WR would have helped also.

Could have been better and more balanced with Tyreek also. Like they were in 2018 and 2019. That's on the Chiefs, not Tyreek.

I'm ok with Hill moving on. I wish he could/would have stayed, but he wasn't going to fit here any more with the amount of money he wanted. It's a business and that's just how it goes. He did great things with the Chiefs and I wish him continued success except against the Chiefs or at the Chiefs' expense.
