I don't see why Smith would be interested in signing anything at this point anyway, being this close to free agency.

Nate Taylor saying it doesn't make it gospel. What else are the Chiefs gonna say? "We want to keep Creed but not Smith"? They're going to say they want to keep everyone in public and work to keep the guys they deem most important in private while trying to get a return on the ones they let walk if possible.

I'll trust whatever these guys do at this point. Clearly, Pat wants them both back and there is obviously a reason for that. We've been able to get away with lackluster play at tackle because of these guys, so I see the logic. I just hope Trey is taking a discount to stay and play for championships with his best buddy, because if they give him a $100 million dollar deal, that's going to be very hard to swallow. Then again, you also know that means Thuney is gone after this year which takes some of the financial burden away.
If Pat's happy, we all should be happy, regardless of if it's the way we think things should be done. If we lose players on D, so be it. You give 15 what he needs on offense, and he's already proven he can win it all with a middling defense. Just how it has to be in this era, we were never going to maintain a top 5 unit on both sides. |

I mean, these guys even had Patrick's back at the WWE event. You can't let them leave.

Read the article. It implies that they are trying to get deals done with guys to get the ball rolling. It says they want to sign Bolton and Butker too.
They can “want” to sign Trey all they want but I think that will end up being a mistake. |

You can afford to do this when you will have a LT and LG on rookie contracts next season. You gotta keep the franchise protected.

The big issue comes in the next 2 years for Karlaftis and McDuffie. Both will want huge contracts but idk if they can give it to both. Karlaftis will be tricky |

Creeds going to want 16-17mil+ per season. I don't know if center is the position to give that money too especially when the chiefs have proven they are flat out amazing at developing them so I don't doubt they could easily get one at least 80-90% as good at Creed.

Kelce was making 15 when he retired. The highest active is at 13.5 per. Maybe Creed would ask for less than the Kelce deal but I don't know if he would. I think 15 is where negotiations begin.

15 I'd guess is where Creed comes in at.
