So you didn't want to pay Smith or Humphrey. Neither one, correct?

You would rather get Mahomes killed.

You're literally reeruned.

The reason they would trade for him is the draft is a gamble. Trey has proven himself. Last season the Chiefs gambled at LT. They drafted Kingsley. It didn't pan out. Should the Chiefs just draft another Tackle this season? If there was a proven LT available that would fit financially would it be worth a 3rd round pick? I say yes.

Poles wants competition at LT at minimum and they are in a prime spot to take Simmons at #10. Jones is far better than anyone on the market, he's just been knicked up a bit the last couple of seasons.

Gotta take a shot somehow. **** it.

This is very similar to my thought with Jacksonville and Walker Little. Little was 8th on both of those lists for LT's that you posted a couple of days ago. Right where the LT from the Rams was rated.

It's a good plan on either front IMO. Jones or Little.

if you can't have a good LT then you shouldn't have good olinemen anywhere else! /s

I know you’re kidding there, but it is a take many have and I do find… funny.

If you’ve been paying close attn to Veach for the past seven or eight years, you can see what’s coming.

Because there is truth to the take that the Chiefs should not sacrifice getting a sure thing at LT in favor of keeping their RG, because we know how LT play impacts Mahomes.

We’ve seen this movie before though in ‘21. BV isn’t doing just enough on the OL to make you feel decent. He’s going to overcorrect this thing as he deems fit, and I’d bet about anything they already know they can write up the contract they will soon sign their LT to AND keep Smith.

Defense may suffer for it, but writings on the wall fellas. This offseason is all about positioning the offense to dominate again, and they’re going to add youth on the defense that may need to work through some early 2022 growing pains again.

I cant believe Im saying this, has to be the first Balto trade Ive agreed with but the "Trade Smith for Armstead" idea is not only reasonable but makes sense for both teams if Miami is actually looking to start the new guy.

Delano · 03-01-2025, 01:36 PM

Signing Trey doesn’t feel great for a few reasons.

Looks like Veach chasing the Taylor sunk cost. Taylor hasnt lived up to the contract and now they feel obligated to overpay for a guard. A guard whose style doesn’t really fit well with what Taylor does. Maybe it makes sense if Taylor moving to LT is on the table. Morris or Sumo looks better next to Smith.

Second, tying up more big money on the interior feels like a waste when they’ve invested heavily at the position in recent drafts. The general manager tries to plan for the departure of big money second/third contract players by drafting talent a year or two before. Worked with McDuffie (Sneed) and maybe Hicks (Reid). Hasn’t worked at all on the o or d line.

Armstead can’t stay healthy. He’s worse than Stanley as far as that goes.

I don’t get the appeal there personally.

I love it, personally.

1st it shows that if you do things the right way and product you'll get paid. Not somewhere else, not where we trade you, but right here in KC. Ball out and get a nice phat contract if you earn it.

2nd it shows we want to maintain the continuity along the line. Thuney is on his last legs so him and Humphries will be the future legs this line is built on. You don't take a huge step forward by taking a huge step back and adding more variables. Lock up a solid player and person and keep this group that respects each other together.

3rd, we have the money. Clark has it, Pat can move it around, and the cap has plenty of elasticity for us. We don't have to be the Saints who've maxed out the credit card and are starting on their 2nd just to make minimum payments. Overpaying to protect Pat is just smarter than overpaying for playmakers or studs on D. We have a top 10 D and probably will now as long as Spags stays on. Keeping Pat healthy is priority no 1.

Patrick Mahomes would retire early like Andrew Luck due to injuries if BWillie was the GM.

Which makes sense bc Ryan Grigson hated investing in OL just BWillie.

No dumby he would just use that money on the franchise LT (no clue how he's going to get him though).

Why would you say such a horrible thing? Are you trying to make the goddamn server crash again?

We are signing Cam Robinson, and damn it, he’s going to play good football!
