Richard Noggin Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) https://www.nfl.com/news/chiefs-trade-for-vikings-cb-mike-hughes Apparently injury-riddled his first three seasons with Minnesota. Chiefs only swapped a 6th for a 7th and Hughes. Player was probably on his way to not making the team, I'm guessing? Whether or not this particular player pans out, that KC front office is really turning over its roster this offseason. Or, are we just more attentive to what they do, being our current nemesis? You could argue the Bills still need more CB depth/competition, and should have/could have been in on a move like this one. I don't want to, but I am surprised no one else has yet... (I'll bet Hughes isn't exactly cheap for an unproven, largely unavailable-to-date young corner. Could be a good reason NOT to trade for him.) Edited May 14, 2021 by Richard Noggin Words and ideas
Saxum Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 This is likely why - availability. January 3, 2020: Minnesota Vikings placed CB Mike Hughes on IR. July 26, 2019: Minnesota Vikings placed DB Mike Hughes on the physically unable to perform list. October 16, 2018: Minnesota Vikings placed DB Mike Hughes on IR. 1
NewEra Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) You prefer to keep our CBs as they are or you prefer we add someone? If there’s one move we can’t afford to make this offseason, it’s trade Jerry Hughes. Trading him makes us worse. he’s our best pass rusher BY FAAAAAAR Edited May 14, 2021 by NewEra 1 2
GunnerBill Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 Yea Mike Hughes has been a disappointment in Minnesota who have corner issues themselves and yet are willing to trade him. Maybe he clicks with a fresh start, low risk, high reward for the Chiefs.
Zerovoltz Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 This type of player aquisition is a Chiefs staple. they LOVE going after failed 1st round draft picks and seeing if they got something. Taco Charlton Ogbah DeAndre Baker Cam Erving Hughes Sean Lee I'm sure I'm missing a few, but KC brings these guys in as depth pieces. They don't cost much. Sometimes you get something out of them. Ogbah had 8 sacks in KC, Cam Erving started all over the line as a fill in for a Super Bowl winning team. Sean Lee completely sucked. it doesn't always work..but low risk high reward types.

Lagoon Blues Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 He was pretty good coming out of UCF. Watched him quite a bit. I was surprised by his 1st round slot though.

MJS Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 I do think that Bills fans are hyper sensitive to what the Chiefs do right now. Some have a bit of an inferiority complex.
