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.

Adding in the second round pick, we basically gave up a top 20 pick. I don't love the trade comp. But oh well. We definitely got a hell of a lot better on D. [Reply]

I understand, but that restructure is going to put a contract right back on the books that is just like Justin Houston.
We dropped Houston and Ford because of money. Now we are adding the same money back onto the team, at the same position. People said we cut expensive edge rushers because Spagnuolo didn't want those edge rushers.
We trade Ford(13 sacks) and get a 2nd.
We trade a 1st, a 2nd and we swap 3rds for Clark(13 sacks) [Reply]

I do wonder if this means Hill is less likely to get paid after this season more than anything. He may have fucked himself and they went defense with his $$.
Eh.
They still need help at LB and in the backfield.
But yeah, i've been waiting for a move like this all offseason.
I've been getting blasted for not celebrating JAGS like Ogbah, all the while telling everyone that he's a replacement level player.

Seriously; what is WRONG with this guy?

Chiefs and Frank Clark reached agreement on a 5 yrs, $105.5 million contract - greater total than DeMarcus Lawrence, with $63.5 million guaranteed, per source.

Ford and Houston were not only about money.
Ford was a walking injury and he was shit against the run.
Houston couldn't play a whole fucking season and was on the decline. [Reply]
I’m not thrilled with the compensation, but it’s amazing how some are acting like it’s awful all around and we aren’t getting an elite 25 y/o pass rusher.
No shit. Someone posted earlier 'We have a one year window to win now'.

It was always going to suck, but the improvements we're going to make with Clark are negligible. It's a transition year. We've still got question marks all over this unit, and the players who in theory should be right with the program are still going to make mental errors.
It's a bad deal.
You are overreacting a bit to scheme transition/changes. It's not that complicated. [Reply]
