It sucks, no doubt about it, tough pill to swallow. But when you're paying certain positions a bulk of the cap, you have to try and read the tea leaves. You would have had to replace Tyreek eventually, who knows if talks broken down, if the relationship was damaged beyond repair, if both sides were bull headed with Tyreek set on $30 million per year and Veach set on another FA or two, it sucks.
Tyreek is gone now, gotta replace him and I hope they've been doing their homework and have a receiver pegged. Unless you hit a diamond in the rough, you aren't replicating production like Hill, not playstyle or speed, but production, the numbers he produced. I would be okay for them to use their picks to trade up to get one that they truly believe in. Garrett Wilson Drake London Jameson Williams Chris Olave Treylon Burks Jahan Dotson All slated to come off the board before your picks at 29 and 30. If this trade was to rebuild the defense with young talent, then that's your mission, but Veach is in the seat now. You trade away one of the Big 3 on any team, you better produce afterwards. Veach has already kinda flubbed this off season in the minds of many, if it's a bad draft class and the team is noticeably worse, and the slide continues from our Super Bowl win, to Super Bowl loss, to home AFC Championship loss, to Divisional round or worse loss, then all the blame centers on Veach. |

You are SEVERELY underrating the kid. Quote:
Look at the third and 4th rounds of this drafts mocks. TONS of talent that seems like they would be 2nd or even first rounders in some drafts. Especially with WRs and DL…the positions we need the most. Quote:

… I hate seeing one of my favorite all time Chiefs leave KC, but I understand why and am excited to see how Veach utilizes the resources that opened up with this trade to make us better long term. 31.25m per year FULLY GUARANTEED for 4 years is a number I wouldn’t be comfortable with, considering it’s fully guaranteed. |

Comparing Tyreek Hill... arguably the second best player on the team behind Mahomes... to other "players x, y or z getting moved" is a laughable homer attempt (and fail) to minimize just how difficult it is going to be trying to replicate Tyreek's playmaking threat. This isn't the same as replacing a brokedick left tackle or right tackle. This isn't the same as replacing a safety. This is replacing one of the most explosive WR's/playmakers in NFL history. |

Hill along with Mahomes made this iteration of the Chiefs...special.
I thought he was untouchable...he's a once in a generation HOF talent. KC doesn't win the SB without him...and wouldn't have beat the Bills last year. People can talk money/picks all they want....but he's not replaceable. He's a real deal game wrecker. Chiefs will still be a good team...just, from a past fan's perspective, a lot less entertaining. He's made soooo many plays only a handful of football players in history could make.... This is terrible news...shocking actually. Two first rounders should have been a bare minimum.... |

I don't want Hurtkins back, we need a receiver who can stay healthy.
