You pay generational talent at QB. You only pay other positions if it doesn't completely fuck your team over.

We emptied the whole team this year and at one point had the 2nd most cap in the league.

We had the money.

When did we have the 2nd most cap in the league?

I thought I read 2nd but I may have been wrong. I stand corrected.
[Reply]

Yeah....that was AFTER we traded Hill. We weren't paying Hill and having the 2nd most cap space.

We could have shaved another $14 I believe from Converting Pat's money.

Everything is possible it's an argument over the cost. My argument would have been you keep your Rice-Montana pairing as long as possible. Everyone else is expendable...

The Chiefs have a head coach, QB and TE that are all in the top 3 OF ALL TIME at their position. We will be fine without that illiterate piece of garbage!

Look, the last two years we just weren't good enough. I mean, that's just the facts.

O-line suckage and lacking depth cost us SB55.

Last year, the defense sucked balls the first half of the year, and then again at the end.

And in the second half of the AFCCG, the offense shit all over themselves.

Not good enough. It was time to re-load. Defense was too top heavy salary-wise, and the offense was not diverse enough and with a record setting deal to Hill, not enough resources to get better.

We got a great haul for Hill. This will go a long way to reloading the team if Veach knocks this draft out of the park like he did last year.

I'm conceding NOTHING. I fully expect this team to be a contender in 2022. It will look different, but I don't think anyone will want to play them in January.

I was half expecting a Kelce trade in a year or two. Not this
[Reply]

We might see that next year. He's aging and high priced. That might be how we add some picks for the KC draft...
[Reply]

Chris Jones is probably gone. My guess is Kelce retires as a Chief.
[Reply]

If we're willing to trade Hill everyone outside of Pat is bait...
[Reply]

I'm really hoping that this teaches the Chiefs management a lesson; they traded a lot of draft capital to get Clark along with a huge contract and are paying the price. Yes, it did help them get a SB (however, they might have won without him).

I want to see the Chiefs building through the draft instead of buying expensive rentals. I really believe that Miami is going to regret this deal.

They were trying to get over the hump, and quickly, while Patrick was on a rookie deal.

It made sense in the context of the moment.

This is a different context now. Totally different trying to STAY on top as opposed to GET to the top.

You wanna stay? Anyone but your generational QB is expendable. You MUST draft well, and you MUST spend thriftily in free agency. It's really that simple.

Look at all of the turnover between the SB teams in New England. Other than Brady, anyone who got expensive got gone. That offense was totally different from year to year almost.

This is The Way. Better embrace it.

Kelce’s cap hit is reasonable. Hope he retires as a Chief.
