The only way you screw Mahomes over is by signing an absolutely horrid long-term deal or two. Jones is an unreal player but if he is demanding that kind of money I'd prefer to take the draft capital and extra cap space and move on. It's a risky move as Mahomes is getting ready to enter his prime. He isnt Khalil Mack.

He's more important than Khalil Mack. Edge rushers are pretty damn easy to find, but what Jones does is close to impossible to replicate. Inside pressure is so important and helps the edge rushers immensely as it keeps the QB from stepping up.
