lattimore for that price and he will be done when McDuffie comes due.. tempting. I'd be interested in the post June 1 Godwin rumor too.

Paying a dude a million dollars for 1 year and not being on the hook for any of the following money is way different than throwing out a huge guarantee that you have to pay right now and being on the hook for all the money.

If all it costs is a 5th, maybe even a 4th, and you get 1 year of him for asswipe money and then cut him with no cap penalty, that's not the worst thing in the world. Sneed/4th/long-term cap flexibility (and $17 in short term cap space) for Lattimore/3rd I mean, that's an obvious win, no? |

I do think we're a little on the shy side at CB. I mean I know everyone's in love with Nazeh Johnson but man there are a lot of unknowns there. He may not have EVER been good and coming of an injury that's derailed the career of many a DB, I'm not sure how confident we can be that he ever will be. |

It wouldn't be the worst idea. I'd guess he goes hard wanting an extension though with guaranteed money in it, so you'd probably have to do something.

We've got nine CB's on the roster and two years ago after Ward left Veach and Reid traded away a guy who played in the SB (Fenton) and decided to throw Mcduffie, Williams and Watson straight into the fire. All three have since gone on to play a role In two superbowl wins. And now you got Nic Jones, Johnson, Hadden and Battle in the mix too. So I doubt they target a CB tbh.

That said, it really did seem like Williams took control of that job down the stretch. And I think I'm pretty confident in him. I'm more worried about CB3 and what we'll do in the event of the inevitable injury in the defensive backfield. Conner I do think will be a big part of the answer next season. I think he'll be able to step up and maybe be more of a full time NCB than pure backup safety. I loved his range though I do wonder if he'll have the feet to stay in guys pockets when he's asked to step into the slot. I think in an ideal world, Jaylen Watson remains a backup rather than someone who's seeing 40 snaps/gm. I just think he got exposed a little last season. It wouldn't take much for us to have to lean pretty heavily on him and I don't love that. |

First of all, why the **** wouldn't you just have kept Sneed then?
Second of all, doubt Lattimore even gets on a practice field without having some guarantees implemented in any prospective trade. |

1 year and 'up to' $8.25 million; base appears to be about $3 million.
Yeah, that's probably right where I'd have been willing to offer him. Kinda disappointed we didn't get him at/near that figure. With a base salary of $3 million, if we weren't willing to guarantee $5 million and put together a similar incentive structure to get to $9 million, that really kinda tells me that Palmers "The Chiefs are expecting a half-season suspension or longer for Rice" stuff is bullshit. At that kind of money with the cap space to make it work, there's no reason NOT to do it if you think you're losing your top receiver for half a year. |
