Von Miller to Rams

[reesebobby 5,661]

Not exactly Chiefs, but affects the division.  2nd and 3rd?

[Mr Ev 332]

It’s maddening to me how quickly the Chiefs rise has started its decent.  While other teams are adjusting to schemes and strategies, the Chiefs have remained strong in their ways.  While other teams are doing everything they can to make super bowl runs the Chiefs keeps players like Jones, Hitchens, HB.  We keep signing other teams throw aways thinking we will find a diamond in the rough.  Now, I can’t even go into any game feeling confident we will even score 21 pts.

I think he is a free agent next year? Does he go back to Denver?

Rental for Rams for sure.  Denver gets two good picks and don’t have to pay what, 9mill?  Veach needs to decide is he’s playing to win this year or playing to build for next year.

Actually I read they WERE paying 9 mill of his salary for the remainder of the year, so the real reward is the two picks which with the way the Rams are playing, could be like getting an early third and 4th for him.

Yep you’re right.  I misread.

I think Den would not have dealt Miller to Kc. Not sure who else would do a deal like that. My guess is Miller will be a Bronco next year. Rams may already know that.

I would not give up our 2nd and 3rd for a 32 year old DE in the last year of his contract. I know he could really help for half a season, but not worth the cost IMO.

If we gave up those picks for VM this forum would be

The Rams have a better overall depth than KC so they can afford losing the picks a little easier than KC could.

Even if it nets them a SB win? 

I hate the Clark contract, but he played a big part in the playoffs getting the trophy after 50 years; I'd do it again. Stafford isn't a young pup so I respect the balls it took to pull the trigger on this. 

[Thegoatee 1,780]

If the Rams don’t win it all, more lost draft picks. They still lacking a 1st for like the next decade? Or have all those past failed trades finally over?

I guess you better just jump off the cliff now and don't forget to set your hair on fire for added effect. Yea this year is not going as we had hoped but I think it as growing pains even the longest of dynasties have down years to reload 

[CranjisMcbasketball 780]

A 2nd and 3rd for an injury prone 32 year old rental pass rusher seems dumb to me. This is not the von miller of 6 years ago

I dont think you see the point.. SB is in LA it becomes a home game. They are trying to buy a SB much like  other teams have done in the past. LA is a brutal market and with the Bolts doing well they have them as competition along with the Lakers etc. With the Cards doing as well as they are they have to make bold moves. Stafford's shelf life is  almost over.. the future is now.

 With the cast of characters around VM he could easily become  his old self  even if just for another 10-12 games. To be truthful I'm glad the Chiefs are not in the SB hunt as they cant match up to the Cards , Rams or even Packers

I believe we can right the ship, be in the SB hunt and match up well with anyone. Just takes us to get hot at the right time and we can be unstoppable on offense, to match the horrendous play of the defense that looks to stay all year long.

It is probably worth it if he helps them win a Super Bowl, but its all or nothing. If they don't win it and watch Von Miller, their 2nd and their 3rd at Broncos training camp, that would be tough.  The Rams are all in. They have traded away their 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th next year. Very aggressive.

If they think Miller is the only missing piece from the SB push it makes perfect sense. But that's still a risk for any GM and could have repercussions. I don't think such an investment is an option for the Chiefs at this point.

The Lambs get Von for half a season to try and close out their Super Bowl run, Elway gets 2 decent draft picks to squander in April, and Von will likely resign with the Broncos again anyway.

It's probably a win-win for both teams.

I’m not even convinced they will even win!  Lol!  Whoever comes out of the NFC will probably win the SB, IMO.

Definitely a win for the Broncos no matter what happens.

Donkey’s will be much better come next season.  I also think they beat the Chiefs once if not twice this season.
