Kansas Chiefs had traded Tyreek Hill to the Dolphins for five draft picks:
不能否认酋长得到了很多,他们释放了3千万的空间,他们获得了宝贵的首轮签,得到了大把的选秀权,更是在今年拥有12个选秀权。我完全相信KC的管理层和运营,可以通过选秀在今年获得不错的即战力,选一个或者多个有潜力的wide-receiver补足阵容深度,也有足够的空间去对症下药补强防守组,利用他们仍旧强大的竞争力在转会市场寻找一名优秀的cornerback,让球队整体更加全面。
BUT
KC失去了这个世界上最离谱的怪物,一个能跑能接的全能怪物,他的全面大大丰富了Chiefs的各种战术,他创造了无数名场面,他游离于体系之外却存在感爆炸,他们在关键的三档转换,在急需大码数但对手深度区域防守时,在季后赛的关键时刻,一定会超级超级怀念这个核武器。Cheifs可能会是更好的球队,但他们永远少了一把尖刀。
About the Trade
交易本身来看其实能够理解球队,在绝对核心Patrick Mahomes刚刚签下十年大合同的情况下,在未来这些年持续保持竞争力确实是他们要做的事,浪费Pat的时间,浪费他的巅峰期是一件无比奢侈的事情,现状不允许他们摆烂,甚至一两年的调整也要慎重。但无论如何,足够年轻且足够优秀,合同又足够长的Pat是数一数二的基石,给了球队一个靠谱的未来,即使找不到让球队立刻变强的人选,他们仍然有资本去慢慢规划未来。
Pat, Kelce, Cheetah 那个统治AFC最强的三叉戟结束了,Pat的状态只要保持,KC Chiefs仍会是那个统治力十足的球队,他们会用得到的筹码成为更全面的球队,也完全尊重Tyreek的选择,在南海岸能够和潜力无限的年轻四分卫Tua产生化学反应,永远保持锋利。
以后,也算是多了一个主队了。
Never forget.
Thank you Cheetah.
See you in AFC Champ.
最后,也附上Tyreek刚刚发出的一封告别信??
A letter from Tyreek Hill
Today starts a new beginning. I’m very excited to be joining the Miami Dolphins and get to work. However it’s hard thinking about the memories, people and fans that made my time in Kansas City so great.
To my family and especially my kids, thank you for being my biggest supporters. Daddy loves you.
I’m grateful to those who joined me in giving back to the Kansas City community through the Tyreek Hill Family Foundation. From college scholarships, youth football camps, funding the first youth mental health navigator at Marillac, donating supplies to the homeless and visit with kids in the hospital, we couldn’t have made the impact without all of you.
Thank you to the Chiefs organization for believing in me. I’ll never forget getting the call in 2016 that my dream to play in the NFL was coming true. I worked hard every day to show my appreciation for you taking a change on me. To Coach Reid, Coach Bieniemy and Coach Lewis, thank you for what you have taught me not only about football but about life.
Thank you to Pat, Kelce, Demarcus, and Dieter along with my teammates. I’m proud to have taken the field with each of you. You are what made each day worth it. We are brothers for life!!
To the fans, thank you for your support. Playing for you has been one of the greatest things I have done in my life. Your energy, passion and loyalty for the team is indescribable. It was an honor to play in front of you.
Kansas City will alway hold a special place in my heart!
Cheetah Out!
