Correct, but you are also picking up $20 million plus in cap space on the rookie deal to spend elsewhere. It's a much bigger picture than just the draft picks.

There are only two DT’s in the league who can get sack numbers like DE’s and we have one of them. No way you let that go..

OBJ is the big question though. No idea what to do there. |

I'd be fine with either scenario, because he's a great player, but the keyboard GM in me says if the Chiefs are in a middle of a semi rebuild then let's get some 1sts to help that transition.

The simple answer is your choosing between Jones and OBJ. IMO, you can’t pay both of those guys $25-30 mil. year with Pat’s contract continuing to rise going forward. That’s not even mentioning some of the other young guys we have coming due for contracts that aren’t gonna be cheap (Sneed, for instance).
I know who I’d extend and pay (Jones), but I have a feeling the Chiefs may go with the younger guy, who will also be a little cheaper, and honestly Jones would have way more trade value than OBJ. You may be able to land a second for OBJ, but Chris Jones would bring a minimum first and second. I’d extend Jones, tag and trade OBJ, sign a stopgap for a year, draft a LT who excels at pass blocking and call it a day. But I’m not the Chiefs front office. And I can understand the argument for why they might want to go the opposite direction, even if I don’t agree. |

I think it depends on the team trading for him on the pick. 2 firsts would be to a good team expecting to be picking in the 20s. Maybe a 1 snd 2 if it’s a little earlier. |

What the h*** is happening in this thread? We're in the middle of a Super Bowl run. We don't talk about stuff like this.
And just for the record, Chris Jones is our best defensive lineman since Art Still in the early 1980s. He starts for our all-time team. |

Veach will make him a fair offer, whatever that ends up looking like. And if CJ is really as loyal as he seems to KC and the Chiefs, he'll take the offer. Veach will not entertain a trade for CJ, unless Chris flat turns down the offer and/or asks to be traded.

Only in ChiefsPlanet Universe is it possible that 30 seconds after we finish 14-3, clinch our 7th straight AFC West Title, clinch home field advantage in the playoffs for the 3rd time in 5 years, have our 8th straight year in the playoffs which is currently the longest streak in the NFL, beat our #1 Divisional rival by 18 points, record 6 sacks with no turnovers, do we have someone decide that now would be a good time and idea to talk about trading our #1 Defensive player, who just recorded 2.5 sacks in the game.
Did the OP suffer a concussion during the game? |
