Brett Veach prioritizing re-signing Chris Jones, L'Jarius Sneed
What some of us have been wondering...

Quote:
HENDERSON, Nev. -- Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said he is aware of the challenge the organization faces in re-signing both defensive tackle Chris Jones and cornerback L'Jarius Sneed but said it would be an offseason priority to get both players under new contracts.

"Sometimes I look at our situation and I'm like, 'I don't know how we're going to do this,' but we usually work through things systematically and have a list of the priorities,'' Veach said as the Chiefs continued preparations for Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers. "Certainly, Chris and LJ are at the top of the list.

"It's extremely hard because you have two keystone players there.''

Jones, 29, has been one of the NFL's top pass-rushers for years. He had 10.5 sacks this season to tie for the team lead after missing training camp and the first regular-season game while holding out for a new contract.

He didn't get the extension he was looking for, but the Chiefs sweetened the final season of his existing contract.

"It was important for us to mend the fences with Chris because we love him and he's an iconic player here, not just here, but I mean of all time,'' Veach said. "That was important for us, and we'll continue to work hard and see if we can get something done, but it will be a priority for us.''

The Chiefs used Sneed, 27, this season to defend against the opponent's top receiver much of the time, and none had big games against him.

Jones and Sneed are key players for an improved Chiefs defense that allowed fewer points than all but one other team during the regular season and held the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens to 41 total points in the playoffs.

The Chiefs had defenses that were at times competitive since Patrick Mahomes became their starting quarterback in 2018, but rarely were they consistently so. Veach and the Chiefs found the task of building a top defense difficult because the past few seasons they were carrying Mahomes' massive contract.

"I still remember in '17 and '18 just saying if we can just get them to punt just once we've got a shot,'' Veach said. "Now all of a sudden it's like all we've got to do is just score once and we're good.

"Going from where we were in '17 and '18 to having one of the best defenses, knowing the constraints we had of just paying [Mahomes] and probably drafting later [in rounds], I don't think I ever envisioned having a top one or two defense.''

I agree with the bolded.

I really like the top 100 in this class and likely wouldn't mind a move down from 32 if it gets us another pick in that top 100. I mean if we moved from 32 to 46 and picked up 82 in the process (just an example since I believe Indy has both those picks and the trade seems roughly fair), I'd probably consider that. And it's a lighter return than I'd usually be interested in for a trade down. Atlanta for 43 and 79 looks awfully nice but I don't think we can quiiiiite get that done. Maybe.

That's how you keep the dynasty going. Adding more young, cheap talent.
It is strong but the problem is all the tackles are RTs for the most part.

My dream would be that a team really likes Penix Jr and wants to take a shot at him at 32 for cost and the 5th year option and overpays us to move down just a bit.

I think a good overall value plus something Veach likes to do is trade one of our picks to get multiple back that are better.

Philly gets:
Sneed
#2.64

Chiefs get:
#2.50
#2.53

Gives an early 2nd round value

And couldn't this be ok and finally move Taylor over to LT?

Maybe they make the switch and move Taylor to LT? But then you have Morris you could just plug in at RT in that case, unless they don't see him as a starter. One way or another I would like to stop putting band aids on the LT spot, we're really pushing our luck.

I don't think Morris is ready to start unless he has an offseason adding a ton of strength. I personally think he's a candidate you could eventually slide inside at guard for life after Thuney.

Yeah. If we’re trading him, it’s to a contender.

It doesn’t make sense for a team that far from contending to give up the picks and cap space to trade for/extend him.
