Idk man, we could go back and forth on pros and cons for days. I think he’s a got true Pro Bowl potential and could be a big piece in getting them that elusive Super Bowl.
At least they aren’t sitting on their hands.
Pro Bowl potential?
I could be wrong, but pretty sure the guy is a 1st team ALL PRO.

Tyrann Mathieu played 99% of the Texans' defensive snaps last season. This is a big loss for that defense. Meanwhile, the DB-needy Chiefs add an impact player who can help at slot CB and safety
I feel like half the defense is turning over this year. And I guess that's fine when you've got the #31 defense, but I think we all speculated that it was more about scheme than talent.
Whatever. I'm wearing my Mahomes headband and I'm along for the ride.

Don't **** with a honey badger indeed.
They're smart, too. Observers have seen them use sticks and the spinal cords of other animals as tools. Seriously.
They will kill a poisonous snake or an animal 10 times their size and then play golf with their victim's freaking spinal cord.

That's what I want. A good solid Vet at a reasonable price and a draft pick. If Fuller is as good in the slot as everyone says, we should be good to go.

Exactly, we can't just rule out the possibility of a trade. Clearly, Veach is all in for the next two seasons. I can see him pulling off a trade that comes completely out of nowhere. Maybe we revisit Peterson, or maybe Ramsey wants out.
Not to mention the draft. We'll likely be able to draft a solid guy at 29 if we don't trade for somebody. Maybe move up for Greedy. Who knows, but I'm not gonna be freaking out about our corners until it's August and Fuller/Ward/Smith are the only guys we have.
