Chiefs are trading six-time Pro-Bowl WR Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins for five draft picks: a 2022 1st-round pick (No. 29), a 2nd-round pick (No. 50) and a 4th-round pick, as well as 4th- and 6th-round picks in the 2023 draft, sources tell ESPN.

Well, our gm better start drafting some weapons because Hill is gone and Kelce will be 33 this year [Reply]
This sucks so bad. You could have 10 high #1 draft picks and easily not hit on a HOF-level talent like Hill. Yeah he's 28 but the dude is a solid ball of muscle and not injury prone. He's easily got 4 more good years. This is less than we got for Jared Allen.
You have to hope the Chiefs know something we don't. Or that Mahomes was good with this on some level. Good teams don't trade away HOF players in their prime. It's just weird.
Plus I like watching Hill play. He's a fun player. I always thought we'd have him through his prime. I don't want to be like the Oakland As where we just bring in a bunch of market-efficient retreads. Not losing star players is one big reason I like the NFL better than MLB now. [Reply]
More Tyreek Hill contract details: The $72.2 million becomes fully guaranteed at the start of the 2023 league year. The other $52.535 million is fully guaranteed at signing.
I am 100% not trolling but I have to ask... There is a certain player that likes to play with legends... PM will be a legend if he is not already. Will AB be in a Chiefs uniform next year.... [Reply]
This is not our GM's fault. Hill chose money, warmth and he rather lose but have more money than win and have a little less. Adams chose the same. [Reply]

He got almost $75M guaranteed from the Dolphins. [Reply]
