So getting the picks they did in this trade, with of course rookie contracts attached to them, you have to say that despite losing a really good player, they have absolutely done the right thing and come out of it pretty damn well to be honest. A very smart move methinks. Especially in a draft with this much defensive line talent. Losing Clark sucks, but they can get a good pass rusher at #21 (or trade up for 1 they really want) and then add more cost-controlled depth with #29.

True, their drafting has fallen off as of late but did anyone expect them to just consistently draft All-Pro's in the 4th or later rounds like they were doing from 2011-2013? Hard to keep that pace up. They do, however, need to do MUCH better at hitting on their OL and high-up picks. Drafting Rashaad Penny last year was a joke even without hindsight.

The jets are desperate to trade down and haven't been able to find a partner... the value just isn't there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyMouse07 Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 So Chiefs go out and get another DV guy? You’d think they would be staying clear of these guys after everything with Hill and Hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawgX Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 I'd say Seattle won the trade (as of now), but I don't think it's as bad for KC as a lot of you are making it out to be. A lot of you are asking why didn't they just keep Ford... well, Clark is simply better than Ford. They still gave up a bit too much, IMO, but it's not an awful trade for KC.

Time will tell, but saying you agree to 'no one will trade down' then saying 'well they would be able to trade down' is.... odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramxel Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 No one is saying Dee is on the same level than Clark, he's clearly an upgrade, he just isn't a 'Dee+1st rounder' clear upgrade. There's absolutely no value in that whole transaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
