They can still use it in this years draft to move up or down lol.

It’s not all doom and gloom. Neither was the Peters trade.

Would have been better off not tagging him at all. Having 20m in cap tied up through the peak FA wave for some minimal gains didn't really seem worth it.

I wouldn’t be rushing to resign Trey Smith to a fat new contract.

That's like the only explanation that makes sense.

But if Sneed has another career year and his knee isn't a problem, then this trade is gonna look VERY foolish.
[Reply]

Right?

Couldn't even get the 7th on its own. Had to fucking swap them.

I mean it's just a complete kick in the dick. It's that awful scene from Draft Day and Ron Carthon just called Brett Veach a pancake eating motherfucker.

Veach got beat. Badly. And again - we have pending FAs that may get tagged next year. Folks will remember this.

They have to use the cap space created wisely.

If they don't it's a horrible trade.

Plenty of value out there still.

Worse than… a 7th round swap?

The options were:

- let Sneed walk, have money when FA starts OR use it how you wish, and likely get a 3rd comp pick next year after there’s a bidding war for Sneed

- keep Sneed on the tag and have a great corner this year, then let him walk next year and get a ‘26 comp maybe

- tag him, trade him for nothing new this year, and have money to spend weeks after FA began.


Again, love Veach, SBs, etc… I just don’t get choosing option 3 from above.

This is all about his knee, odds are they think they got his best years and he's a timebomb.
[Reply]

No kidding.

They put a nearly $20 million freeze on their available cap space with the tag and all they are getting in return for that is a third round pick next year.
[Reply]

Thats underwhelming, but in veach i trust.
[Reply]

If you don’t think it went wrong

An older Charlton Davis got significantly more compo last week. We got bent over. Irrespective of what Mahomes does or who Veach drafts.

They are not related
[Reply]

If you were completely unwilling to keep him on the tag (and we clearly were) then you don't fucking tag him.

It's a bad bluff. It is, at best, mitigation.
[Reply]

A 2025? This is what happens when a team team is desperate to get out from under an obligation. Some of you fools may argue otherwise but reality sucks. A 2025 3rd for a supposed shutdown corner.
[Reply]

That cap space is going to be used on valuable players like Mike Danna.
