NFL-OT | OFF-SEASON - A New Hope (Losers Only)
- Thread starter Fantomex
- Start date
The Seahawks would not trade Earl to Dallas for their second, but give up Clark for a 2nd round pick in his prime
Fuck you Seattle
* nvm, they got a 1st round pick too
As a Chiefs fan, I don't know what to think....I'm not married to draft picks and Veach could trade back into the 1st if he wanted to.
It's more the combination of giving up the picks and $$$ to someone with such a checkered background...
I do look forward to him and Jones wreaking havoc though.

The Chiefs definitely needed another guy who beats up women. I can't wait for a certain somebody to come in here and tell us he's a changed man.
So they gave away Dee Ford cause they didnt want to pay him and then gave up a ton for a guy they will have to pay more.
Chiefs gave me hope for one season, but at least I can't be disappointed from here on out. Fuck Reid, fuck Veach. What a massive mistake.
Clark fits their scheme better which is why I feel they were willingly letting him go.
Chiefs gave up too much. Now they gotta pay Frank Clark, Chris Jones, and potentially Tyreek Hill MASSIVE money
I hope so. That seems like a ton to give up though. Florio was saying today that the Seahawks were holding fast to getting back at least a 1st and I thought he was crazy.
I actually think this is a rare trade where it benefits both teams pretty well and they both feel good coming out of it.
He can go back to that team that cut his ass because he's a bbbbbbiiiiittttcccchhhh
Exactly, if he wants to go crawling back to the team that dumped his ass, fine, but they better pay up.
As a matter of fact, send him to the Bills instead!
Think Chiefs got fleeced personally. I'm not sure they are the team on the rise anymore. Lost Hunt, Ford, Houston. Mortgage the future somewhat by trading a first and a second and dole out 21m/ year approximately. Who knows whether Hill plays. Kelce getting old. Watkins is always hurt.
Mahomes still elevated them highly, but seems they could be a team that busts rather than booms over the next 3-4 years.

Chiefs got rekt on that trade. I think it makes sense for them because they are going all in, but to give up those draft picks when their secondary is a dumpster fire... oof.
49ers are also fucking trash. When even a kicker is requesting trades? This season should be fun.

I feel like I'm missing something here. Clark is good but he's not Mack/Donald good. He's not even DLaw good.
I guess KC is looking at it as they're giving up late picks in those rounds anyway. But that contract is even more than they would've had to pay for Ford and it's not like there's some major talent separation between Ford and Clark.

I only had to deal with those people for a couple of seasons.
You've lived the Matt Ryan experience for a decade (and counting!)
What's the window on Mahomes' payday as well? Next off season or the one after?
The 2nd round pick is the lower of their 2 2nd round picks next season...and who exactly were they going to draft at 29 that will even come close to the impact that Clark will have?
Mortgaging the future lol? Man NFL fans' obsession with draft picks is something I'll never understand...
Ford is wildly inconsistent and injury prone, Houston is on the downside of his career....the defense is already wayyyy better on paper than last year and there's still the draft to go and the rest of the offseason.
All the defense has to do is be in the top 15 range for them to be legit SB threats, it's going to be there.
The more I think about it, the more this is a great trade for both teams.
Look at Clark and Lawrence's stats...they're very similar with Clark playing one less season, he has more sacks and QB hits as well.
And please, Ford isn't even close to Clark...come on lol.
Last three years:
Ford had 25 sacks in 37 games, .675 sacks per game
Clark had 32 sacks in 47 games, .680 sacks per game
So Clark has more sacks and was able to stay healthy....gotcha.
Don't even have to mention how much more of a fit Clark is opposed to Ford in a 43.

If you think the difference between Ford and Clark is a first, a second, and swapping thirds, good luck with that
A very late first in a deep draft along with a 2nd next season....? Yeah I'm good with that.
Oh and....
...but I'm sure they're all wrong too.
Yip.
Jones is a dynamite guy inside. Curious to see how he builds on his terrific season.
After the Lawrence and Clark contracts, you gotta wonder what the hell Houston does with Clowney
If you wanna get signed by the Chiefs just slap the shit outcha girl I guess.
Shouldn't that be a Browns T-shirt lol? :-)
