I'd agree they are related, living in the same town and all, just not one in the same lol

Something for us to consider: Sweat wrote a thank you statement to the team and fans after he was traded, and did not say any bad things about the team. Chase did not write a thank you statement to the team and/or fans after he was traded, instead he proceeded to say unnecessary things about the team. This alone should give you a better picture of who Sweat and Chase truly are.

Excellent point.

12.5 sacks for Sweat now on the year.

Definitely would rather have kept him. I do understand the trade though.

How many did he have when he left here? Probably a case of better coaching staff better results, but a big contract helps. This is why it is always difficult to rate our own players when the coaching is so awful.. Would have been nice to be able to keep him, added conditional picks based on his performance would also have been good

6.5 sacks through 8 games with WAS.

6 sacks through 6 games with CHI.

IN 6 Games with SF

CY has 2 SACKS....

He is one of the biggest bust at that position in history

I think since the offseason, Sweat was a favorite among the coaching staff, and was likely going to be kept if the team had been successful. Since the team laid a turd, it was prudent to trade him and give the new regime more draft ammo for any move they'd like to make.

Those are 1st round pick worthy, dumb trade. Should have kept him instead of creating another hole.

This is true but a 2nd isn't bad. It'll be a high 2nd too.

One more hole in a sinking ship full of holes?
