It's the way contracts work for the elite players. The next guy gets paid a little more than the one that was paid before him. If the Chiefs don't want to pay him that much then Jones will go to a team that will and if he hits FA I can guarantee almost the entire league will be trying to sign him. Hes not gonna take some low ball offer after we told him to **** off and gave Frank Clark the contract he was asking for.
God damn im smart

That's why I was so ambivalent this whole time.

Look - the market was set. Buckner set it. The Chiefs were gonna have to give him a bit more than Buckner got to get a deal done.

Either they would or they wouldn't but there wasn't gonna be a lot of confusion involved here. Everyone knew what it would cost and it was just a question of priority. If the Chiefs moved on, I'd have been confident that they had a plan that would've worked out fine as well.

Sign him, don't sign him - the Chiefs were gonna be okay. But when it gets down to it, sports are entertainment and I like rooting for dudes I like. And I like Chris Jones.

So I'm hopeful he stays healthy, plays up to his deal and I can CONTINUE to like Chris Jones. It's fun to root for a player rather than bemoan his cap figure when he underperforms.

He’s officially the best Chiefs insider.
