Fantastic. Could be posturing though

How many players have we managed to piss off over the years? Maybe it's just because you don't hear as much about a team you're not a fan of but it seems like a number of players have felt offended by the Chiefs' offer to them or their overall treatment by the club.
Chance that we end up losing both Houston and Hudson within a year from now? I'm putting the over/under at 75%. |

I'm not going to piss on KC right now because Houston did hold out when he was drafted in round 3. He's like Revis. First chance he can hold out he will.

No way to tell if this is simply posturing or if either side is being unreasonable.

The player is supposed to ask for more than he is worth. The team is supposed to ask for what is less or what is reasonable, and then they negotiate. Or they'll always be fielding sucky teams or having trouble with cap space. "Reasonable" can also have to do with trying to sign enough players to have a competitive team within the salary cap restraints. If a player can't figure that out, let him go and start his own team. Hmmm. |

There isn't a single team in the NFL that will give up two first round picks and $15 million plus per year for Justin Houston. He has the dumbest agent in all of sports. |

Still has the fallback of just signing the franchise tender though. Lot of dumb teams out there but they tend to be the ones drafting higher that wouldn't give up the picks.

Despite what the internet wants people to believe, Houston is at a disadvantage in this situation. |

If he signs his tender, he's not going to be holding out. What we're talking about here is a guy who refuses to sign the tender until week 10. |

I'm not so sure someone won't play chicken with the Chiefs to either get Houston for just a smidge over our contract or force the Chiefs to pay up. If I was a team and the top draft pick was Eric Fisher, I'd give that shit up so fast it would make your head spin.
