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

Let's see if Sneed remains healthy for the DURATION OF HIS CONTRACT. 4 years, 76 million? hell no.
I want a 3peat as much as the next guy, but if this team gets hamstrung into occasional rebuilds, that jeopardizes our chances in the playoffs in a given year.
I’d rather Veach run the team such that we can give Mahomes a chance to make a SB run every season he’s a Chief than rob from those future chances and go all in.
We have Mahomes. Every year is all in if you have a reasonably decent team around him [Reply]

This.
I think the 3-Peat possibility has a lot of people on edge about decision making, thinking we should mortgage some of the future for this one chance. I dont think we should, unless it makes sense and fits a need. We shouldn't make a splurge overextension that's uncharacteristic of Veach just because of the 3-Peat. Stay the course, there will be more Mahomes years after 2024. [Reply]

I hear ya.
99 times out of 100, my answer has been "give me every bite at the apple while we have Mahomes and thus always have a puncher's chance..."
This is that 1 time.
If a trade were put on the table that guaranteed a SB this year but also guarantees we don't win one for the next, I dunno, 4 years - I'd take it.
The 3-peat is just so monumental for anyone involved in it. Jones, Kelce, Reid, Mahomes - hell, Butker and Veach - those are names that end up etched in history. Heck, Bolton, Creed, Smith, Thuney - these guys would prove instrumental in an unprecedented feat.
I think you push chips in to whatever extent feasible. I'd absolutely make our 1st rounder available for the right deal (though admittedly, i have no idea what that might be). I'd have already offered our 3rd with an understanding that I'd counter with the Titans 3rd to any of these teams with the WRs we've been talking about.

Sure, there will be other years when KC has a good chance to win another SB, and probably will win another SB. But the odds are that there will never another chance at a threepeat if we miss this one.
Imo, Andy/Veach/Mr. Hunt have to go all-in here. If it screws up the cap next year or even for the next couple years, so be it. Pat's only 29; there will be other SB years. But there probably will never be another chance at a threepeat and NFL immortality for the entire team/franchise. [Reply]
