8 picks in the first 135. That's a pick every 16 spots on average. That'll play.

That's a lot of running backs.

Also, the Packers and Rodgers gotta be pissed. They got a 1 and a 2 only for Adams.

Chiefs got a 1, a 2 and a 4 in 2022 and then a 4 and a 6 in 2023. Would have been cool for Chiefs to get a high 1st rounder, but the Jets only offered 35, 38 and 69 and would have had Chiefs giving up 103.

Chiefs picked the better deal and Hill helped by picking the better team with the better offer.

Feels more like their window just closed. If they waste 2-3 years waiting for these picks to develop then Kelce is gone.

Kelce could very well could not play in a Super Bowl again. Who knows!? But they have a decent replacement in Noah Gray who does the same type of things that Kelce did when Kelce first started in the league.

The Chiefs are playing the long game. Not the 2-3 year game.

AKA their Mahomes window is closed for a few years. Chiefs twitter is going to be butt ugly this season.

Chiefs are playing the short game and the long game. Which, they should. Any wasted year with Mahomes is a fireable offense, imo. They will make moves to try and be a contender in 2022.

I don't think the Chiefs window is closed.
Their offseason isn't over.

Man, I wouldn't say their window is closed. They just converted a Thuney's salary to a bonus that cleared about $9M in cap space, and then Hill clears up $20M. They're probably not done adding pieces.

Vegas still has them as AFC West favorites.

Couldn’t agree more.

Like I just said, they cleared $30M in cap space in just 2 days. They're not done making moves this offseason.

We'll see what they look like post draft. Fingers crossed they can pull some more gems like last year.

Are there many elite pieces at positions of need to give all that cap space to? Seems like the FA pickings are down to Tiers B and C.

Stephon Gilmore is out there at CB and Jadeveon Clowney at DE. They're likely not the A tier players they once were but they're still upgrades over what KC has now.

Nice free agent tracker

Vegas odds to win Super Bowl

Before Tyreek trade:
Chiefs +900
Dolphins +5000

After Tyreek trade:
Chiefs +900
Dolphins +5000

Window is closed, guys.

I guess our SB odds went down slightly.
Still favorites for AFC West.

Seemed as if half the people on here were acting like the window was closed when the Chiefs were 3-4 last season.

Nah. Window opened to rebuild the defense. Wide receivers are plentiful, the two deep safeties limited the offense. Need possession receiver and some secondary guys.

Sam McDowell has only been a columnist for a bit but he was around Chiefs last 2 years as best writer and he nails this article. Mentions Chiefs always had Hill on a discount and for the first time, had to pay him his full football worth and says “Chiefs are trading one year of Hill for 5 draft picks with a future and tons of cap space.
