Chiefs started their new formula with Tyreek and now it’s happening with Sneed where they are never going to have to overpay home grown talent because they can let these guys go see what their value is, report back to the team what offers they’re getting, then determine if they’re worth that price or not.
George to me right now is on the same trajectory as Sneed. You will tag him and possibly trade if his market value is too high. McDuffie will get paid before that happens at his current trajectory. They have that fifth year option as leverage over both. It’s very Patriot esque. But being part of this organization is an honor and privilege these days and there’s a price to pay for that. |

That’s the only way we’ll be drafting really high. It’d be nice to trade Karlaftis (when the time is right) for the other team’s first in the following draft. If that team craters, we might see a top 5 pick. |

Nick Bosa signed for $34 mil/yr last year. Parsons will break that.. and someone else will probably break that.
Obviously those are top 5 guys. But George is on a ridiculous pace at 22 years old. He has a crazy work ethic, and should only improve. I don’t think projecting him to get a 4 year deal for 140 3 years after Bosa’s is that crazy of a prediction. And honestly it will probably be higher considering how fast the cap is rising |

Also from that story: 6 teams have talked to Veach about acquiring Sneed
He’s 100% getting traded Quote:

I think Arizona is a sneaky landing spot for LJ.
They have the most draft picks and plenty of cap space to pay him what he’s going to want on top of it. |

If we lose Jones, it will be interesting to see if his numbers stay consistent next year...

Arizona was starting Antonio ****ing Hamilton late last season at CB.
I wonder if you could get 35 + 105 or 66 + 71 from them. They have the money to break him off and they need culture setters. |

If we retain Jones, he won't be 'worth' what we're paying him. That's just the reality of 3rd contract guys. The money gets larger and the player gets worse. It's just a question of how long they can stay viable and whether or not that money could've done more for us if used in some other fashion. It's not a slam-dunk either way. A Chris Jones contract could fairly easily go bad for us. But if that's the direction we go, it's hard to say it's a 'bad' idea. |

All depends on the structure and when we can get out. If it’s a 3 year deal with a way out in year 3, do it.
This ain’t the 6 year ball and chain deals from the Dorsey years |

But I'd be surprised if Veach wasn't trying that very thing last season and getting stonewalled. It's just hard to look at these negotiations without considering how they went last time. And the fact that the Katz brothers are mouth-breathing window-lickers. At this point the Chiefs just don't have the leverage to really lean into some of the things I'd think they should've been able to accomplish last season. Best shot they have is Mahomes/Kelce convincing Jones to take command of the discussions and get the deal over the line. |
