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.

Maybe it WAS the right move. Maybe this guy can't draft for shit and getting proven product at any cost is the way to go!
I would have preferred to wait out the CB market a bit, see what happens post draft, and go to the draft with the idea of picking up a good DE in the first, a CB in the second, and a Center in the 3rd.
I would have preferred to get younger, CHEAPER talent so that we can pay the people we need to pay this year, and let our new coaching staff prove their worth.
This guy Clark might be the greatest FA we've ever picked up but I'm not going to start doing cartwheels every time Veach makes a move because until he can demonstrate that his ass cheeks can assume a position other than "wide the fuck open" and "open for business/no lube required", I don't trust him enough to throw a parade for every move he makes yet.
My only fear is what this may mean for Hill. I still think Jones gets paid, but Hill is gonna demand elite money if he’s cleared & is in Cleveland for nothing if he ain’t. [Reply]

Garafolo States today that Jones agent has been negotiating for the past couple weeks and is seeking around 20 mil a year. Deal will get done [Reply]
The Chiefs paid less than it would've cost to trade up to 21 for a guy like Clelin Ferrell. Clark is going to get PAID, but this undoubtedly makes the 2019 and 2020 teams better.

Tag Hill and win our back-to-back superbowls then we can let Hill go wherever he needs to go... [Reply]
In one offseason, the Chiefs turned:
Justin Houston (expensive brokedick)
Eric Berry (expensive brokedick)
Dee Ford (perennial brokedick who only consistently shows up in a contract year)
Eric Murray (trash)
The number 29 pick
Into:
Honey Badger
Bashaud Breeland (on a cheap deal)
Ogbah
Frank Clark
Okafor
It’s almost as if the Chiefs defense fucking sucked last year and they needed to upgrade quickly with immediate proven commodities. Quite the concept. [Reply]
