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

This is fine. Its not elite but it's not a weakness either. If we lose, its not going to be because of this DB core.
I doubt we'll see any significance in overall defensive production. McDuffie is the better corner anyway. And Watson and Williams are good, ascending players who are experienced and will be entering their third year with the team. They're built just like Sneed. Tall, lanky, fast and physical corners.
The defense will keep on ticking, i dont expect to see much loss. [Reply]

Hopefully Nic Jones comes back full strength because he was VERY impressive in camp...I know, so was Bobby Sippio, but I am very interested to see how the FO views his potential. If they go CB in the first two rnds, he may not get the opportunity he seemed destined for. [Reply]

Tennessee could just as likely win 5 games (stout conference, Levis could bust), and next year's draft class could be better than average and that 3rd could land quality closer to a 2nd than 4th.
Worst case scenario you have 4 top 100 picks. in the first 3 rounds, unless you use that extra 3rd to move up this year. [Reply]

I don't think you'll see a high draft pick on a DB, especially a corner. With McDuffie, Watson, Williams, Nic Jones, Nazeeh Johnson, and Boye-Doe, they are set. Probably see a few more 4th and 5th rounders thrown into the mix since that seems to be their sweet spot for finding these guys. [Reply]

The Titans will be a mid 3 at worst. In fact odds are it could be a top 10 pick considering their schedule and the other 3 teams in their division all had winning records last year.
Based on the Chiefs recent draft position that draft pick could only be a mere 10-11 picks after where our 2nd would be.
Hum a 4th since next year.Guess people ignore that part so far. [Reply]

He tied his career record for sacks last season (9.5). Hard to believe he didn't have more than that earlier in his career. I wouldn't mind seeing him added to the rotation. Depends on the price of course. He might be willing to chase a ring. [Reply]

as I said, yes, this is conventionally how it's regarded.
IF, however, you are Brett Veach, and you already have a championship roster at the end of March, and you don't HAVE to make huge moves and can afford to be patient, then it will indeed be an early 3rd round pick.
Traditionally, the reasoning for discounting a round per year is based on the urgency to win NOW for most franchises.
We're at the top of the mountain. It's a little different. We're going to need that pick next year, and will be glad to have it. [Reply]

Quite interesting........
Some are just spinning it with Homer goggles [Reply]
Exclusive: The #Chiefs felt comfortable trading CB L'Jarius Sneed because they already have the perfect replacement on the roster. He was tracking to start on defense at corner opposite Sneed and Trent McDuffie in 2023 before a season-ending injury in training camp.
