The Marcus Peters trade details are finally out. If you didn’t like the trade to begin with, you probably won’t like it anymore now.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Chiefs traded Peters to the Rams in exchange for a fourth round pick this year and a second round pick next year.
The #Chiefs traded CB Marcus Peters to the #Rams for a 2018 fourth round pick and a 2019 2nd round pick, sources say. The deal can’t be official until the league year begins.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter has the same details but says the Chiefs also sent a sixth round pick to the Rams.
Full terms on Marcus Peters trade:

Chiefs trade CB Marcus Peters and 2018 sixth-round pick to LA for 2019 second-round pick and 2018 fourth-round pick, per league sources.
Previous reports suggested the Rams first round pick wouldn’t be involved and the Rams didn’t have a second round pick. So many Chiefs fans were thinking the Rams third round pick this year would be involved but the Chiefs aren’t even getting that this year. They do get the second rounder but that’s in 2019, not this year.
One day, I really want to know the backstory behind this trade because I expected much more than this. I didn’t expect the return for the Chiefs to be this low. This trade does not look any better right now. It seems obvious to me now why someone — sure seems like it was the Chiefs — didn’t want these details coming out.
There has to be more to the story.

If this is really what we got the trade is awful. Just can't be all we got.

They should have kept him for 2 years and let him walk for that deal. #sad
