Good lord, that’s a lot of goddamn money for a center.

I’ll obviously trust them, but wow.

If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope we extend Creed
I hope he snaps pigskins

Only thing I'd look sideways at is if they extended Trey Smith as well.

If there’s anything that gives Patrick happy feet and causes him to preemptively drift backwards and abandon clean pockets, it’s pressure up the middle.

That compensation suggests the Chiefs see the impact Creed has had for Patrick as a pocket passer.

Awesome news! Keep the band together baby! :thumb:

Guessing that’s more like 3/$50 million with a big ol’ base salary at the end that he’s unlikely to see.

I mean they DEMOLISHED the market, don’t get me wrong. But there will be some finagling in there.

If they do then hopefully it’s not market settling as well. We have one of the most expensive QB, top paid TE, top paid DT, and now top paid C. Still curious what they do with Bolton and when the time comes, McDuffie.

Either way I am glad Creed is still a Chief and trust that Veach knows what he is doing.

Creed isn't just the best C in the league. Dude is always available.

Hope there’s a “dirting the snap” clause. Jk. Love Creed! Protect Patrick at all costs!

$18 million APY?! Holy shit

Need to see the structure of the deal but wow

Called he would get the highest salary for a center. 12.5 a year guaranteed isn't bad. Gotta see how likely it is he gets the other 20mil and how that breaks down

Worth it.

I like that he plays for my favorite team the KC City Chiefs

Zero chance they use the tag on Bolton. There is no separate designation for OLB and MLB on the tag so they’d be putting a price tag on him for WAY more than they should by tagging him.

Unless he takes a team friendly deal, they’ll likely let him test the market and let him see his value. He's not worth close to what the highest paid OLB’s are getting. Nor would the Chiefs consider paying him as such.

They could tag Smith for a year if they wanted
