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.

Guaranteed to get back more for him? No, but it's all but guaranteed you'd have more bidders for him, which would potentially drive the price up. That and you get 1 more year of a HOF player in his prime. [Reply]

It is what it is Hill took the money over the team. This isn't the Chiefs fault.
Can you blame him? KC was NEVER going to come CLOSE to that.
May as well wait until Miami realizes that they're still a dumpster fire organization with no QB and flips him back to us for one of their 4th rounders. [Reply]

Bullshit. This team could absolutely still make the playoffs even with Hill sitting out half the season. [Reply]

THIS ISN’T ABOUT 1 YEAR
They are trying to build something that can last, not go all-in while everybody else is. [Reply]

There’s no guarantee of that at all. Do you think Veach just took the first two calls and sent everyone else to voicemail? [Reply]

Of course he did. Veach is a moron. He's no John Dorsey. [Reply]

You get less because he’s one year older and not on the last year of his contract. [Reply]
