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 why future draft picks are not “an extra rd of value”. Being patient brings dividends.
This is basically a late 2nd rd pick as it stands today
It can go both ways. Remember when we traded Dee Ford to the 49ers for a second? We beat them in the Superbowl that year, which put it at the next to last pick in the second round. It's much better this time, but there's way too much variation in where it can bem [Reply]
The money side of things matters. Unfortunately. This guy will go down as one of my top 10 favorite Chiefs ever. An absolute Johnny on the spot baller! Think about having him right now going into the Playoffs. I don’t think any other DB in the league makes the play he made on Flowers to strip the ball on the goal-line. But, it is what it is. He gone [Reply]

A quick search tells me that Sneed has 55 M guaranteed and Jones has 95.
The idea that anyone wanted Sneed for the same price is ludicrous. And given KC's ability to draft and develop DBs, Sneed combined with injury concerns was probably never a priority.
After BV traded Hill and let OBJ walk, and after CJ sat out a game... I admit I thought it was more likely than not that BV and CJ would not get a deal done and CJ would go to some team that could pay more.
That doesn't mean I was cheering for that outcome. The best outcome obviously is resigning CJ and for KC to get their money's worth.

So far, so great.
Thank God, cuz the Faders were definitely trying to swoop in and give him a contract. That woulda sucked! [Reply]
looks like as of this moment the 3-1 Titans are picking 2nd in every round based on Strength of Schedule. Is that correct? Next week the Pats play the Bills (a hard SOS) and the Titans get a little easier SOS vs the Texans. If both teams lose, would the tie break catapult the Titans to the #1 pick?
Is the gap in SOS too big to makeup with just one game?
The Bills should totally tank their game so their division rival doesn't get the #1 pick. Plus they would be improving KC's draft stock, which we know they love to do. [Reply]

It's really immaterial. Pick 65 or 66 is really based on that teams needs and highly unlikely both teams are coveting the same player. That being said, we should be ecstatic that the Titans have sucked so bad this year, because 65-66 compared to 80-81 is a big difference. [Reply]
