Billl

The Chiefs have given up a 2025 5th round pick and a 2026 6th round pick. The Bills gave up a 2025 3rd round pick.

Just a heads up, do NOT watch the end of Super Bowl XXV.

He’s averaged 6.2 yards per target on the season. Some of that is attributable to poor QB play, but he’s 6.8 for his career. He’s the epitome of a stat collector via volume of targets. He’d be a great pickup for a team like Tampa (or Kansas City pre-Hopkins) who just doesn’t have any healthy targets, but I’m not sure what he does for Baltimore.

This WR class has lived up to the hype so far.

It’s actually kind of wild how few dominant pass rushers there are on contending teams. In the AFC, it’s basically Watt and Jones. In the NFC, it’s pretty much just Bosa with Hutchinson being out. All of the others like Crosby, Garrett, Parsons, Lawrence, Hendrickson, etc. are on bad teams. Everyone in Kansas City is worried that our LTs aren’t good enough to hold up against a dominant DE in the postseason, but it’s entirely possible to go to the Super Bowl and not face one. I’m not sure the Steelers make it out of the Wild Card round, the 49ers don’t look like a Super Bowl team, and who knows if Aiden will be any good if he were to even play.

It’s not going to cost anything because he’s not going to be for sale. The Chargers are 4-3 with games against the Browns, Titans, and Bengals the next three weeks. That’s not a team looking to have a fire sale.

Giving up the 211th pick in 2026 is an absolute panic move.

Yeah, his rookie numbers are pacing to look like McKenzie’s career numbers.

Coleman looks really, really good.

That’s because Chris Carter never had a rushing TD. Worthy has 2. All Xavier Worthy does is catch touchdowns and run for touchdowns. So far, both teams won the trade.

Worthy got another TD reception today. That’s 5 total on the season.

Armstead seems completely washed.

You just sliced up their careers in a way that removed a Super Bowl winning season and an MVP season away from Mahomes and two mediocre at best seasons from Josh. Why stop there?

LOL, he just turned 32 in June. As far as how much of a part QB play factors into stats, here’s what Tennessee WRs have done this season compared to last: Calvin Ridley 2023: 76 catches, 1016 yards, 8 TDs 2024: 12 catches, 183 yards, 1 TD Tyler Boyd 2023: 67 catches, 667 yards, 2 TDs 2024: 18 catches, 170 yards, 0 TDs DeAndre Hopkins 2023: 75 catches, 1057 yards, 7 TDs 2024: 15 catches, 173 yards, 1 TD (and he’s only played 177 snaps all season)

If you’ve driven a car 55 times and totaled your car 3 of those times, someone needs to take your keys away.

Did Beane and McDermott just outwit Veach and Reid for the 47th straight time? 🫣

No they didn’t. They traded a sandwich pick between rounds 3 and 4. It was the 100th overall pick in the draft. He didn’t pan out long-term, but he did catch a TD pass in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl and later had the longest punt return in Super Bowl history (65 yards) to set up another TD.

I’m a Chiefs fan, so obviously I hope you’re right. At this point, simply being a capable WR is a win. Anything above that is just a bonus.

Absolutely. Rice is a much better player at this point in their careers. He was easily a top 20 guy before his injury.

The Chiefs lost Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice to injury before bringing in Juju. Now Juju is injured. This move has absolutely nothing to do with Worthy or Rice’s ability and everything to do with injuries. Giving up a pick at the bottom of the fifth round is nothing. Last season the last pick in the 5th round was number 175 overall. If anything, this makes the Titans worse. Kansas City owns their third round pick. If dealing Hopkins causes them to win one fewer game, the value gained from the third round pick moving up will be worth as much as the cost of a pick at the end of round 5. Then there’s the potential for a comp pick since he’s now a UFA after this season.

I'm pretty sure Travis Kelce is getting more than 5 targets in any playoff game that goes down to the wire. I'm also pretty confident that Reid has goal line plays he's saving for when it really matters. That confidence comes from watching it happen every season. They struggle in the red zone all year and then toss the ball to a receiver who doesn't have a defender within 10 yards of him in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl. There is a very real difference between October and January with this team.

I think you're looking at this the wrong way. The Chiefs just went on the road against the 49ers and beat them by double digits even after giving up a garbage time TD, and they did it while performing at a C level. One of the hallmarks of Andy Reid is that his teams don't mash the accelerater until they really need to. He's perfectly content with doing just enough to win.

They should move the coverage team move up 15 yards as well.

But have you considered the possibility that Edwards is a 28 year old career backup who is actually a dynamic player just waiting to explode onto the scene and that McDermott (and Steve Spagnuolo and Todd Bowles) simply doesn’t notice what’s right under his nose?
