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.

It's a WR friendly draft... not a bad idea. Go grab two young studs in the making and get them cheap for the next 3-4 years. [Reply]

That's a rhetorical question, BTW.
He either plays out the last year of his deal or sits out for a varying degree of time. If he sits out the Chiefs have plenty of avenues to recoup the $$$ and he's in all likelihood sitting out till week 10 max. That gives you Hill for the final push and the playoffs, which is the best time for us to have him. Regardless of what happens we go into next off-season and let it be known we are tagging him with intent to trade and leave your offers in the box. [Reply]
More Tyreek Hill contract details: The $72.2 million becomes fully guaranteed at the start of the 2023 league year. The other $52.535 million is fully guaranteed at signing.
and we dont even get like a good first round pick? literally the pick before our pick? So we have the 29 and 30 and no Tyreek. Wow. Better strike fucking gold with one of those. [Reply]

I already addressed this in a response to someone else but it didn't post for whatever reason. I don't have the energy or determination to type it again so I'm just going to bow out. This is exhausting and not at all worth it.

Chiefs have 2 R1 and 2 R2 picks... they can take 29 and 50 and move up to the 18 range if they see a WR sitting there that they love. Then they still have another R1 and another R2.
