Sources: The #Seahawks and #Chiefs are deep in talks on a trade to send star Frank Clark to KC. The compensation would include a 1st rounder, a 2020 2nd rounder and a swap of mid-rounders. To complete it, the franchise tagged player and Chiefs must hammer out a deal.
The draft shows are scrambling to figure out which other team they're gonna take a commercial break on now that the Chiefs don't have a first round pick. [Reply]

The body of work is what we wanted.
We wanted Sutton fired.
We wanted Berry gone.
We wanted Ford gone.
We wanted Houston gone.
We wanted a good coaching staff on defense.
We wanted responsible proactive contract deals.
We wanted real tangible upgrades.
Idk what you want? Veach has done all of that, be it with Andy. This team got top level talents at DE and safety and STILL has 3 picks in the top 85 to make moves.
I’m starting to adapt htismaqe’s philosophy after last season. I get that we need to be long term, which this weekend will be all about, but I am sick and tired of failure.
50 years dude. FIFTY YEARS. I want us to go all in while we can. Doesn’t mean we aren’t preparing for the future too.
Buckle up and enjoy 2019. This will be the best season of your life.
The thing is, yeah, we're paying Clark and Mathieu a lot of money.
They're still YOUNG. This isn't a one year run. We're putting pieces on the board that give us a SEVERAL YEAR window. We didn't sign a bunch of 30 year old guys. We got RID of those guys.
We add a CB and maybe a LB and this is a GREAT defense. [Reply]

The Mahomes rookie contract window is wide open and they're going to do everything it takes to fly through it.
At a minimum, Frank Clark knows which side of the neutral zone to line up on. Last year, that would have literally been enough to GO TO THE SUPER BOWL.
ALL IN, MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!
Never forget the day. This is like when Frank the Tank defeated James Carville in a debate about the government's role in supporting biotechnological innovation. [Reply]
