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'd rather have Brown than the other two. He would fit perfectly alongside Rice and Kelce.

I like him, but I don't think he's worth what he'll fetch on the market.

Sorry, I don't think CP has a tampon emoji because you would have earned one.

I also speak English so try translating your gibberish next time before you post.

I'm totally cool with Ridley, caveat being his market isn't quite what's expected. He doesn't have the typical wear of a WR that old.

Five years of NFL wear on his body. For comparison, Mike Evans is one year older and has TEN.

You haven't played in 2 weeks, your practice schedule is wonky, the stress is immense. And Mahomes was tight and playing a little sped up (the All-22 reviews coming out support my real time take on that as well).

I think it's fair to also look at the Dolphins game, the totality of the Bills game and the first couple drives of the Ravens game against a ferocious defense (not to mention the 2nd half of the SB when everyone got their wits back about them) and say that in totality the offense is a HELL of a lot closer to what we want than it looked for at times this season.

I don't think there's a reason to hit a panic button here.


Not saying there's a massive flaw to that reasoning, however, let's also remember that the MIA/BUF defenses were crippled by injuries by the time we faced them in the playoffs, and both of those defenses effectively stuffed the KC offense earlier in the season when they both were healthier.

And that SF defense was supposed to be no better than the BUF defense we faced just a couple weeks earlier (or so I was told multiple times), and yet somehow that shitty defense held our offense to just 19 points in 4 quarters of play, no TDs in the first 10 drives (just 3 FGs). And 7 points of that 19 was accidental.

Not saying anyone has to panic, but let's not repeat the mistakes of last season, and end up with the same shitty offensive production we had all season. No need to chase a top-10 WR, but also absolutely no need to short-change ourselves with another $10 million/yr dog-shit WR like MVS.

Get an actual veteran upgrade, that Rice could actually learn from and improve his craft (instead of trying to pick MVS' brain which should scare the hell out of any Chiefs fan), as well as provide enough production to make the offense more than just barely functional.

Spotrac puts his Market Value at 17 million per season. Man, if you can get him for just a bit less that might actually be a steal.

I don't understand why people think Jax would let him walk.

The offense isn’t fixed.
Yeah, I'm still wanting to draft a WR R1 at the very least. It's still the hole that needs filling, at least until we know Jones is gone.

Do you actually think they will burn the franchise tag on him? If they don’t, they kind of lose all the leverage.

They're already paying Kirk 24 million and Jones 11 million, and Josh Allen is a far more likely candidate to be tagged than Ridley.
