i'd say it's about even. Both great players with different strengths and weaknesses. They complement each other well too. I think signing Jones to a huge deal isn't worth it for Chiefs since we have Reid/Mahomes and are already paying a ton to Frank Clark. But he deserves to get paid a lot by another team who needs a good pass rushing DT to help get their defense and team to the next level. He's a good player but if I'm Veach I'd let him go.

I'm not sure that's necessarily true, Jones being more valuable than Clark. At least not at a time where Jones still struggles to play within the designed structure of the defense and freelances himself out of plays multiple times a game. Which is not to diminish how special a player he is in terms of pure ability, just that he can giveth and he can taketh away, so to speak, often from one play to the next.

I would imagine Jones is more valuable to most teams just because finding interior guys who can get pressure like that aren't very common, and most GMs and coaches want that more than anything these days.

Why do you care?
The main reason I bailed on this site was most of this board insisting he was a liability and the main problem with our defense. That position didn't get less stupid. Y'all should be happy to trade this "terrible" player while people think hes good. |

Anyone else feel like this helps the case for CJ to sign?
I do. |

The threats of a hold-out have me a bit concerned though. If this was the angle, why wouldn’t they tell Jones they were headed that way? There has been nothing but silence from the Chiefs to Jones’ camp. That would be a lot of ground to cover in 9 days. |

Spotrac has mahomes salary going up by 2 mil for this year, overthecap doesnt but if it does that leaves us with just 1.5 mil and all our picks still to sign so something else still has to happen to get them all signed. I say a jones deal.

Honestly we overpaid for Clark. Jones is more consistent.
