Chiefs Justin Houston Contract Rumor... - Page 14

Yeah, yeah.. Bleacher report.

Says Justin Houston wants a JJ Watt type contract from the Chiefs. Watt signed a six year 100 million deal with Houston.

Those numbers actually seem fairly reasonable, assuming Houston keeps at his trade. Probably ends up being a little bit less guaranteed, but I could certainly live with that salary cap hit year-by-year.

Perhaps Weatherman has a really good source, and as Dane suggests, the numbers seems about right. Sure hope this pans out as per Weatherman's source.

My sources are always excellent. And as every NFL fan knows, Franchise Tag/Long Term Deals always take till right before the deadline to be announced. It always happens each year. They usually wait till then to announce the long term extension of big name players.

Like I said. With the Royals being the Main Headliners for Monday and Tuesday, expect the Chiefs to not formally announce the deal till right before the deadline on Wednesday. But the deal is set in stone. He wouldnt be talking about the Chiefs or recruiting his teammates to his camp if he didn't believe the deal would be done and he wouldn't be using the term "We" in the AP Article that was released eariler if he wasn't 100% going to be a Chief.

He's 100% going to be a Chief this year with or without a long term deal.

Can you tell us who your sources are so we can decide if you're lying.

Absolutely ridiculous. Houston's contract would be nearly up by the time a KC drafted QB was due for a new contract.

This is the dumbest statement I've read today. That's quite the honor on CP.

The signing could be announced any time thereafter.

They would need to file the paperwork with the league office, though. And that's where guys like Schefter and others will pick up the story.

I think I would be more likely to believe Weatherman's source if he just said the figures and that the Chiefs will wait a few days. This part about not wanting to outshine the Royals in the ASG is pure bullshit. If they don't want to overshadow the Royals in the ASG, they should announce the new contract by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.

You Realize that Today was Travel day for most of the KC Sports media and most local news media to Cincinatti for the Royals VS NL All stars. They aren't going to announce the contract till members of the media can come in for a press conference and that won't be till Wednesday afternoon.

Look at the Pats and how they handled Revis.... Smart

The patriots are built around tom brady. We don't have tom brady, and paying houston or not won't change that. Even if we drafted a qb at the top of the first round next year, houston's paycheck is immaterial. Your argument is bogus.

I hope you're right.

He's worth the money. Even if Dee Ford became a good player, we'd need a GREAT player at another position to equal what we lost from Houston.

People don't seem to understand that he nearly broke the sack record while dropping into coverage nearly 25% of the time.

**The Franchise** · 07-12-2015, 03:24 PM

I hope you're right.

Why would they need a press conference?

This makes no sense. If this were the case, Justin Houston's signing would be mentioned every time the Royals were talked about through ALL Star weekend.

Wait for the events to be done, announce the next day, profit.

They always do a press conference. Even for piddly signings. Those pc's may not focus specifically on that signing, but they give an excuse to have a pc.

The more hype and excitement they drum up, the more money they make.

Not many players would take Revis' contract because it's not guaranteed.

You are missing the point. The Pats made Revis a top ten paid player on a one year deal, won the Superbowl and then let him walk.

They didn't lock him up. He's a Jet.
