The Kansas City Chiefs gave WR Tyreek Hill permission to seek a trade and two teams have been reported as finalists. The New York Jets and the Miami Dolphins are the teams who are in talks to acquire Hill in trade. But what could Kansas City potentially get in return in a trade?
First of all the Chiefs will take on a $2.65 million dead cap hit by trading Hill, but they’ll save $18 million on the salary cap this year. That frees up more money for Kansas City to continue to add some free agents this year, like Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who is taking a visit with the team today.
When it comes to trade compensation, according to numerous reports, bidding for Hill reportedly starts with two first-round draft picks. That could get higher as bidding heats up, but for now, it sounds like it’ll land on two first-round picks at a minimum.
