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.

While i'm happy that we finally got an impact player (which i said i expected to get all along), he didn't exactly pull one on Seattle.
His compensation for both Ford and Peters was weak.
And his draft class thus far leaves a lot to be desired.
So far, he's no Dorsey.
He’s significantly better with money than Dorsey to this point. Don’t forget that while Dorsey was better drafting, his first draft was shit at this point in time in his tenure.
I don’t think Ford and Peters trades were Veach’s fault. It was the hard truth. If they were worth 1st rd picks, they would have had more suitors.
A one dimensional pass rusher who is constantly hurt is not worth a first. A raging lunatic is not liked in locker rooms by GM’s. That’s why hardly any team wanted Peters. [Reply]
I don't really buy the "he got shitty value for Ford and Peters" thing as much. Teams will give what they'll give. If they couldn't get anyone to bite for more, doesn't that say more about said players? [Reply]

I was going by last year.
What it really comes down to is Clark over Ford. If you watch their highlight tapes from last year...yeah the stats are close- but the players are WAY different. I liked Ford, but he never had that nasty streak. [Reply]

Some LB's and a safety next to Tyrann are of dire need though.
Dude these corners are going to suck so much shit it's fucking depressing. And the draft does NOT hold promise at this point. D-line was deep, CB not so much.
Chiefs LB's and CB's = dog turds sucking gnat shit sucking germ jizz. [Reply]

Could the Rams do any better this year?
Does anybody really think the 49ers could next year? [Reply]

No, his first draft was not shit. In Hindsight he probably picked the best player in the top 10-15.
And, uhm, better with money? :-) Dafuq? You cray cray.
Did you not see what he's about to pay Clark? What he paid Tyrann? What he paid Watkins?

The fuck are you talking about? There will be CBs in rounds 2 or 3 that we can draft that will be just fine. [Reply]
