Nzoner's Game Room>Chiefs trade for CB Mike Hughes
Easy 6 04:44 PM 05-13-2021
He's battled injuries, but a former first rounder who's only 24 is always worth a gamble

Didn't give up much of anything to get him either, this is why... We Trust In Veach

If Jason Verrett can play a full season, anything can happen :-)

Another low risk, high reward move from Veach. Absolutely love his style.

So we traded the last pick (not counting comp picks) in the 6th for a top 5 pick in the 7th to get a former 1st rounder.

Breelands 30 now at that age a CB can fall off the map so it makes sense to get younger.

He actually just turned 29 in January.

Ok I'm a year early. It's either his age or they'd still like to bring him back and let some of these other dudes battle it out like Keyes, Baker, Hughes etc.

Sounds like if he can get and stay healthy there's potential for a high upside signing.

I'll go 50/50

Reggie Ragland.

Kelvin Benjamin.

Cam Erving.

Deandre Baker.

Mike Hughes.

If you’ve ever been mocked to the Chiefs but someone else swiped you from the Arrowhead NICU, just know: we’ll get you back. A Veach never forgets.

Speaking of our other second chance first round CB signee, where are we at on him... out of these two, who's most likely to stick?

If they're both 100% I'd lean Baker because other than the leg he's been ok. Hughes has a very extensive injury history.

Although most likely a move like this puts guys like BoPete Keyes on notice same as Will Parks should do to Armani Watts.

Baker was released after one season because he was a likely felon and potential attitude issues.

Hughes was released after a few seasons because of injuries and a lack of production.

You always go with the likely-felon-not-felon in these situations. That's Veach 101.

Small sample sizes on both obviously, but overall I'd give the production edge to Hughes based on his best season vs Bakers best

Not trying to argue for either of them really, both are a roll of the dice... just providing some stats to consider
