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.

I really really wish you were right and I was wrong... but that's not the case at all. In fact, it's worse than I thought. I don't think anybody, Chiefs fan or NFL executive, saw Frank Clark being this much of an AIDSy wet fart.

I was just hoping for a mediocre or just slightly worse defense this year but with a move like this, we better be like 13th or 14th at worst.

But at least we have pass rusher kind of settled now and can focus on the secondary.

Clearly I underestimated how bad it would be. [Reply]

Veach is a problem. Andy is a problem. They're two problems. Who gives a shit if Reid says, "Don't re-sign Ford. Get me somebody else instead. Maybe that Frank Clark guy?"
Veach is the one who can't draft. He's the one who got fleeced on the Clark trade. Who overpays for guys like Hitchens, Clark, and Watkins. The guy who can't stand the thought of not drafting his pet projects. The guy who does all of this and then sugarcoats it by calling it, "being aggressive."
There ARE some things that Veach is directly responsible for. The talent compared to how much we spent on said talent is one of those things. [Reply]
