Chiefs giving up a 2019 1st, 2020 2nd for Frank Clark...

[HailHydra]

Dee Ford = 2020 2nd
Frank Clark = 2019 1st, 2020 2nd

???

Pretty bad trade by the Chiefs imo. You not only give up picks but now have to pay market setting price for Clark.

But then again their entire defense is in shambles and they only have so much time to waste until Mahomes has a market deal. Smells like panic.

Plus they have to pay him at least Trey Flowers money! This makes no sense, they should have kept Dee Ford!

Ford, Houston, Speaks
Clark, Okafor, Ogbah

KC played musical chairs at pass rusher & lost a first round pick in return.

I don't get messing with last year's pass rush group. They had the most sacks in the league for goodness sake. If anything, spend heavy on the secondary - which they did to a certain extent, but they also just dismantled their group up front.

 

[Joey007]

So: they could’ve just paid Dee Ford, but instead decided to essentially give up an extra 1st for a guy who’s about at the same level and ALSO on a tag as well?

Huh??

 

[IcyPatriot]

They stop the enemy Brady and they take the iron throne.

Devious....costly ... and perhaps feeble.

And Ford was ranked #1 pass rusher by PFF last season. Sure, Frank Clark is a better run defender, but you don't give up a 1st round pick for basically equivalent value

The good news is that Seattle may now be willing to trade down with their 21st pick...

Remind me, what did we give up for Michael Bennett? He might be older, but he’s no worse a pass rusher.

hawks trying to save money after the wilson contract?

Hahahahaha horrible trade for KC

Run D was awful and so was their secondary in coverage.

Both have improved on paper

They still have Bobby Wagner to do.

Well, that tourch wasn't going to pass itself!

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

What does Seattle do at 29? With 2 firsts they could use some help on both lines as well as Wr/TE

And their pass rush took a hit. Clarke replaces Ford, but they need someone to replace Justin Houston’s production.

He’s good. But to me, overrated

I could see Bill packaging a second rounder + 32 to move up to 21
