Doesn't matter if he holds out or not. There will not be any nfl this season.

So if Jones sits out aren’t we right back in this same spot next year?

I'm not going to knee-jerkingly say "**** him" and move on.
Jones has been awesome for us. Regardless of whether these hold-outs happen to the Broncos or the Chiefs, I'm always on the side of players getting their money. The sport is ruthless both on the field and on the business side, and with the majority of players having a minuscule window on when to cash-in: I'm all for these hold-out tactics. That said, Mahomes comes first, second, and third while everything else comes afterwards. I don't think the deal Jones' wants is going to be fulfilled by the Chiefs. Thanks for the ring and good luck elsewhere, Chris. |

Frank Clark absolutely needs to turn into a top 5 DE, because he's making borderline QB money after 2020. His cap numbers goes from $25.8 million in 2021, to $26.3 million in 2022, and finally $27.8 million in 2023. Clark is likely gone after 2022, because that $27.8 cap number is insane and we can get out of the contract with $21 million in savings and a $6.8 million cap hit in dead money. Overall, not the most ideal contract for someone who doesn't appear to perform to the same level of similarly paid pass rushers like Khalil Mack. |

I don't disagree, but that doesn't mean the contract isn't still an issue. His contract is likely keeping us from extending Jones, and we likely don't win a title without Jones. I don't blame Jones for being upset, because if I'm in that scenario I'd be pissed if I were in KC from day 1 and see an outsider come in and get the money I was looking for.

See ya later. We were going to have to do some cap finangling before COVID, now it's all but impossible.

Called it long ago. He won't play on the tag. Won't get the deal he wants either. Nobody is giving him 21 mil per year. Colts ****ed this up for us wasting big money on Buckner.

Joned turns out to be another greedy athlete. Would you or anyone you know turn down 15 mil for 6 months of work? Greedy like the rest of them.

Being a pro athlete is a full time job but I wouldn't mind making 1.25 million per month either. That's still pretty a pretty good paycheck either way.
