Who should we trade for if Rice is out?

The 'deep threat' that can't catch isn't anything that moves the needle, in my opinion. We have Worthy and Hardman to run those routes, and Worthy can actually catch and track the ball.

Slayton, maybe. Diontae, sure.

That's a harsh assessment when MVS has proven he can make big plays on the biggest stage.

He had the one game, really, the AFCCG when he was the only NFL WR we had left and beat the Bengals. I love him for that!

But he was putrid last year, and other than the pretty hilarious pee-wee league basket catch to seal the deal against the Ravens, he was basically an empty suit.

He's not coming anyway, he's a Saint now, so it doesn't matter.

To me this is 2 year window that we need to maximize as much as possible.

That's because Tyreek Hil, Chris Jones, and Travis Kelce don't grow on trees.

We converted Tyreek into assets that included a young pro-Bowl star corner.

So that leaves us 2 more years of prime Jones and Kelce as a viable weapon.

It's not that we give up after two years. But strategy says to push now while we hold these cards.

What was has no indication on what might be. We should’ve signed Cooper before those assholes.

You act like Veach is just sitting around playing putt putt with his ringer off.

Don't expect a blockbuster deal. Overpaying isn't likely.

Fans hate us.

80% of the league isn't thinking about us at all. They're running their own race.

Yes, because he was a free agent we could’ve just “signed.”

He scored TD's versus the Jags, Bengals and Niners. Plus made big catches against the Bills and Ravens. All of that in the playoffs. So nomatter what you might think about him, the record is the record.

Petro claims that the Browns were asking for a 2nd round pick from the Chiefs for Cooper.

Stop being an idiot trying to split hairs for a like. Chiefs could’ve easily traded for him and snuffed the Bills out.

Yeah they can **** themselves for that asking price

[493rd]

Toss the 49ers into the mix looking for a WR. Your move, Veach.

So you would have been fine giving up a 2-rounder that's 30 years old and leads the league in drops?

We're everybody's super bowl, every week. I don't think that's true.

We're the measuring stick. Nobody's in a hurry to help us out.

Any team that thinks they MIGHT compete now or the near future isn't going to strengthen KC. They'll send assets anywhere else.

I read/heard somewhere the Chiefs were in on Cooper but were only offering a 4th so Cleveland went with Buffalos offer.
