That was always going to be the case.

Sneed probably has 4 more high end years in him he'll then be a good player for 2-3 after that.

If you want to trade him you're drafting a CB really high because having 2 CB's they trust out there is a big reason the defense works.

I just don't see a team wanting to give up draft capital and handout a big contract after a trade.
[Reply]

There are a few teams that might do it, high end CB's are extremely valuable.
[Reply]

Spags trusts the CBs he has. And why would we have to take a CB high when they've proven they can find them anywhere?
[Reply]

A team like the Lions would...and absolutely should trade for a player like Sneed. They need defensive help, have the cap space and are a playoff team.
[Reply]

With the extra cap space this year, a team might be more willing to do the trade a pick AND pay for a guy.
[Reply]

Thing is, man there's just rookies coming out and playing well every year.

I don't think the Lions are really in "all in" mode to do it.
[Reply]

Because that person might be Trent McDuffie.

You don't think he trusts Josh Williams? Here's what he did against the Bengals k in the playoffs when Sneed got concussed on the 2nd play of the game:

We've started Jaylen Watson for a stretch of games. We've started Josh Williams in big games.

They're not dominant but they're solid trustworthy corners.

I think they trust Williams, Watson I dunno though and if you do that both of them are on the field in Nickel downs which is going to weaken the coverage.

I think they very smartly and strategically mix Williams and Watson based on matchups and coverages, if you lose that one or both could get exposed to a degree.

Chiefs GM Brett Veach gives an update on Chris Jones and the negotiations.

Seems they may have had this figured out for a while?
[Reply]

#Chiefs GM Brett Veach spoke a bit about how his staff has scenario sheets they draw up for free agency. If they're unable to re-sign one of Chris Jones, L'Jarius Sneed, or both, they've got contingencies in place that they start to go through. That includes trades & the draft.

That's epic man. :-)

PFF has Williams graded just as high as Sneed on the year. Of course Sneed has more snaps.
