He made the point that by now, his agents already know what other teams would pay for him since that's all they do at the combine other than babysit prospects. And now it's up to the Chiefs to move up to that point not for Chris Jones to move down to theirs. |

Jones could always agree to something this weekend or after the start of FA, but it sure seems like we’d know today if he’s coming back.
I’ll be assuming he’s gone if a deal isn’t announced today. |

He has to know that we won't wait around for him to make up his mind. We are going to pursue Wilkins - if we arent already. It will be very much like the Juwann Taylor and Brown Jr. situation last off season... If Wilkins is going to come in under, then via con dios.

We are not giving Jones the bag he wants. It's been a year, and we haven't caved. Veach is not going to lose 4 guys we need this year and next to keep Jones. It would be stupid to do so.

If the difference between the two in price is 10M AAV or more like I have seen some people suggest... that's a decent quality starter somewhere on the roster shoring up a weaker spot... It does create a quandary of if one move is more beneficial than the other... |

Carrington Harrison coming in hot on Dianna Russini saying she said the Chiefs were optimistic about the Chiefs last year the last chance to sign him happened. Also said she is obviously getting the Chris and Sneed 1st rd pick news from the Chiefs.
To me if Chris Jones is still a FA on Monday morning he’s gone |

It’s not like LT, where you need one good one. If you can’t have a stud on the DL, several good players can make up for that. If you don’t have a good LT, you don’t have a good one. You can’t have 4 decent tackles to make up for that. |

There are fair arguments to sign or not sign Jones. I think the Chiefs will be okay either way. This can end bad for Jones if he pulls an OBJ and is forced to take less in a worse situation, because the Chiefs move on and his market isn’t what he hopes (though I’d be shocked if that happened). |

Just comparing how the money went bad for OBJ and it could (though very very unlikely) happen to Jones too. I think a deal gets done today regardless. And if it doesn’t, the Chiefs will still be fine. |
