Trade: Chiefs are finalizing a deal to send franchise CB L’Jarius Snead to the Titans, per league sources.
Chiefs are expected to receive a 2025 3rd-round pick, in addition to a 2024 7th-round pick flop, while Snead will sign a new contract. Trade is pending physical for Sneed. pic.twitter.com/GWjyKAgxZq
They got a 3rd round pick, the ONLY 3rd round pick that the ONLY team willing to sign Sneed had available.
Unless you thought he was worth and getting a high 2nd (#38 overall), what else did you want? Colts, Lions, all these other rumored teams had more reasonable 2’s but there was no contract for Sneed there.
In the vacuum of take the best return that the only team willing to pay/play Sneed, I think they did just fine. If the Titans had a 2024 3rd, maybe we get it, but that simply doesn’t exist. I suppose if you want to belly ache you can be annoyed we didn’t net an extra 7th rounder - the Chiefs 7th rounder lol literally the last pick in the entire draft not counting 5 compensatory picks. Now they can get off the draft board earlier and start working the phones for UDFAs. See? Winning.

Lol.
Thanks for the laugh. I had a rough day yesterday. I needed that. [Reply]
Willing to bet there has never been a franchise tagged player in NFL history traded for less. If teams are going to refuse to do fair business with the Chiefs, Veach needs to just stop making calls and only work with the select teams that don’t try to screw us in every deal.
This is a travesty. Everyone thinks Jones is the heart and soul of the D, I think we just lost the guy who was just as much so. Thanks for the memories, LJ. You will be truly missed. [Reply]

I.... What? Do you know what an owner actually does?
The last thing we need is Clark acting like Jerry Jones and taking control away from Veach. [Reply]
If his knee is bad enough that we had to sell so low then it should be bad enough to fail the physical or at least not be worth giving $55mil guaranteed. Whole thing makes no sense [Reply]

Those teams just offered less or nothing at all.
The return isn't great in this deal but there wasn't a better offer out there. It should seem obvious that the Chiefs valued the cap space and moving up in a couple of rounds of the draft more than Sneed and his cap hit this year. [Reply]
Can’t believe Veach turned down better offers that didn’t exist and took this one. Should’ve just let him play on the tag and not filled out the roster or be able to make any attempt to extend players that should be part of the future.
Don’t ever change CP, this place still has it. [Reply]
