To me “are going to” is not the same as “has franchise tagged”.

Either sign him or tag him. Letting him walk is not an option. Not really news since they have not announced a signing.

This just means that they plan to work out a deal for Jones but probably not before free agency starts. This gives them time till the beginning of the season to get a deal done. I bet he doesn’t play under the tag this year

It's a stupid fucking idea given they likely won't get a huge enough return. Don't win the SB if he doesn't come back for the playoffs. You realize that right? PLENTY of ways to free up money to keep.

I don't think that's necessarily true.

He played well, no doubt.

a 1st and a 3rd and all that cap room would go a long way to re-stocking.

I'm not sold either way, and ideally you could keep all the guys you want to, but this ain't Madden Football.

Another reason why they tagged him is because they don’t know about the new CBA and this tag makes sure he doesn’t go anywhere while the CBA is being figured out.

It’s also the first step in signing him long term. Nobody is signing long term deals until the CBA is done.

This means nothing and was going to happen either way. You realize that, right?

your reasoning seems to be based on emotional ties to Chris Jones.

It's very John Dorsey to overpay a defensive player and not manage the cap.

And I wildly disagree that Chris Jones' production is unreplaceable.

Can’t trade Hitchens. Okafor has a $4 million dead cap if traded. I doubt anybody wants to trade for 1 year of Sorenson.

Cam Erving might fetch them a 6th. He’s the only other player I can think of

It's not unreplaceable, however you'd prefer to not let guys that are in their primes walk. Ideally they could find some type of agreement that would keep Jones here until he's nearing 30, then you've gotten his best years.

Zero issue on walking on players but yea this one is much harder he's a premier player in his prime, if you move him you damn sure better hit on those picks or you lost.

How the fuck is it emotional to want to keep the second best interior pass rusher in the league when he’s still a young acceding player?

You’re acting like we’re Pats fans wanting to keep Brady.

If they decide they don't want LDT, Okafor or Sorenson they're cuts, teams don't trade for guys unless they are studs or they're giving up jack shit.

Random story.

I went to Egypt back in 2001, and on a hot summer night we were walking to the Luxor temples. We'd been harassed by street vendors for days, so we were wary of anyone approaching.

Some dude approached in a nice buggy - don't remember if it was a donkey or a horse. He tried to get us to buy a ride the few blocks to the temple for XX Egyptian dollars, whatever they were called. We ignored him per standard practice. He kept the buggy beside us and kept lowering the price. Finally, we made a mistake. He got so low that we thought, 'okay, that's a screaming deal', and we climbed aboard.

It turned out that the beast of burden knew the route, so it kept walking. The guy turned around in his seat to face us and harassed and harassed and harassed us to give him more money. We were trying to have a conversation and he was yelling over us and getting in our faces until we eventually jumped off and wished him an eternity in hell. To this day, I hope that guy died in a bombing or something. Even among third world street vendors, he was a pox on the world.

He mentioned something about doing everything the right way but still not being enough. He is right about that though, he went about his business, stayed out of trouble, didn't hold out etc. Kind of shitty deal, he even mentioned the possibility of being traded.

No matter how much you do it the right way, when you want Aaron Donald money with a team that has to pay it's star QB, this is what happens.

Also if this deal does get done, I hope Veach and Reid can be wizards because we are going to be taking a stars and jags approach and having to find late draft picks, USFA's or street free agents that can produce that other teams thought were done will become a standard.

It's simplistic thinking, because people like PGM think that the ONLY option is keep jones. DO IT VEACH.

It's incredibly myopic.

You keep acting like I'm saying you HAVE to trade Jones. You don't have to trade him. You can sign him to a massive contract. It's going to fuck you in other ways. People act like signing Jones doesn't create huge problems. It does. But all they want to do is point out that trading him removes his talent from the team. Yes... I get that. It also injects talent at multiple other positions.

Keeping Jones is totally on the table. It can be done, but it WILL mean cutting other places. Most likely Watkins, LDT, and then letting Breeland and Fuller both walk. There are so many holes on this team to fill, and being maxed out cap-wise with another Jones contract will make it all the harder to fill.

I absolutely love the reverse logic that Veach can't POSSIBLY replace Jones with multiple high picks and cap space, but he ABSOLUTELY can replace Breeland, Fuller, Watkins, and LDT with no cap room and day three picks. It makes no sense.

Also, I'm not angry at you for wanting to keep Jones. You keep getting angry at me for pointing out the problems that creates and positing an alternative trade scenario.

So, yes... you're being emotional. I am not.

Well, yeah, it's easier to replace a journey man CB, a CB that was converted to safety for 4 games, a guard that's always hurt or a WR that shows up for 5 games per year than a top 2 or 3 DT in his prime.

But this is differnt than Eric Berry, Derrick Johnson, and Tamba Hali. Jones is young and just hitting his prime. I'm still on the fence on this one. I agree that you let players walk and replace them with the draft. This one is a bit different, though. Usually, you do this with players who are starting the downside of their careers.

Anybody can get hurt dude. Whoever you pay with the money you save or use your draft picks on can get hurt too. They could also bust. This is so fucking retarded it’s unbelievable.

I think LDT and Sorensen are gone and I don't expect Sammy to take a pay cut. Maybe I'm wrong but.. but could see them getting rid of Wilson (i believe its Wilson) as well. Time's Ours podcast had a list of 5 players they could cut to have plenty of money to keep Chris Jones and not cut off their nose to spite their face.

Give me 3 stars on offense and 3 on defense and we are good IMO.

Pat, Reek, Kelce
Jones, Clark, Mathieu

I think Veach will do what's best for the team... Period. He has given me no reason not to trust his decisions. I would love to keep Jones, I would also love to have good talent on D and also protecting Mahomes. Players will want to play for the Chiefs at a reasonable discount knowing they have a chance at a ring each year, hopefully Jones will be willing to take a discount that allows him to stay. We can't afford him at the price some team will pay to have him and we should get value if this end up being the case. Sucks, but it's smart business.

In no way was I saying that Jones’ value was close to Pat’s. Nor would he be paid like it.

I’m not going full retard, you just missed the point entirely.

Jones is a great player and is young/ascending. He’s the second best interior pass rusher in the league and those guys are just as valuable as anything outside of a QB. That’s objective reasoning just like it is for Pat.

I get so much shit for calling you guys idiots, but your reading comprehension continually suggests I’m right. I often find myself having to explain things over and over on here when I’ve said it clearly before. It’s pathetic.

I feel the exact same way, but in the other direction. If you wanna tag and re-sign Jones, fine. I get it, I wouldn't necessarily do it but they have more info on it than we do.

But let's not white wash away how restricting that will be toward having a complete team.

If the goal is having a complete team, you probably shouldn't sign Mahomes to a monster deal either.

a 1st and a 3rd and all that cap room would go a long way to re-stocking.

I'm not sold either way, and ideally you could keep all the guys you want to, but this ain't Madden Football.This is our new reality until Mahomes retires. Its not about smoke and mirrors to get some cap room for this year. You can only fanangle so much. Mahomes $40 million a year ain't going away. Hard unpopular choices need to be made.

It's simplistic thinking, because people like PGM think that the ONLY option is keep jones. DO IT VEACH.

It's incredibly myopic.

You keep acting like I'm saying you HAVE to trade Jones. You don't have to trade him. You can sign him to a massive contract. It's going to fuck you in other ways. People act like signing Jones doesn't create huge problems. It does. But all they want to do is point out that trading him removes his talent from the team. Yes... I get that. It also injects talent at multiple other positions.

Keeping Jones is totally on the table. It can be done, but it WILL mean cutting other places. Most likely Watkins, LDT, and then letting Breeland and Fuller both walk. There are so many holes on this team to fill, and being maxed out cap-wise with another Jones contract will make it all the harder to fill.

I absolutely love the reverse logic that Veach can't POSSIBLY replace Jones with multiple high picks and cap space, but he ABSOLUTELY can replace Breeland, Fuller, Watkins, and LDT with no cap room and day three picks. It makes no sense.

Also, I'm not angry at you for wanting to keep Jones. You keep getting angry at me for pointing out the problems that creates and positing an alternative trade scenario.

So, yes... you're being emotional. I am not.

You sound upset. How about you try not to let your emotions run away with you?

I’m not talking about the transition tag.

When you franchise tag a player there are 2 versions.

1) Exclusive- the player gets more $ and can only negotiate with his own team.

2) non exclusive- player get less $ but can negotiate with other teams on contract and team can trade for the player if contract is agreed upon (sometimes not with a new deal but the 2 sides know parameters)


The type of franchise tag used is a big chess piece.

The transition tag is similar to the non exclusive franchise tag but the player can negotiate with other teams and once he finds a deal he would sign, the current team has a window of a few days to match that offer or lose the player with no compensation.

If they felt CJ would “turn the switch off after getting paid”, Veach wouldn’t be trying to re-sign Chris. He would be trading him like Peters, Ford and others. Chris is a very hard worker and is matched with a really good position coach.

Has nothing to do with your gross overestimation of 85-90 million cap jumps. But sure, I'll bite on the rest since your fixation with Jones amuses me.

Hes not signjng before the Mahomes deal, clearly. Jones has been franchised. Hes a chief this year unless he refuses to play.

After the new CBA, who knows.

But as of RIGHT NOW, your man crush isnt top priority. Sorry.

One would question how high with the organization he ranked when Veach paid Clark before him, and hes on record saying theyve handled their signings with a lot of foresight. Giving Clark Jonesies money tells me they think differently than you on where Jones falls in priority.

Jones is clearly butthurt about the tag, so he may leave of his own volition when free to do so, IF he is not already in talks with other teams as part of the tag n trade we all know is on the table.

Nobody wants to play under a tag due to injury risk jeopardizing their future. I wouldn't hold it against him to get his security now, after he already got the ring.

The chiefs did the right thing with tagging Jones. While it is very unpopular with players and the guy has earned the right to a multi year deal, dude needs to understand that its the best player on the planet being taken care of before him.

Its not a slight, by any means, but in his Cowherd interview he acts like its this mixed emotions thing, talking about do i need 30 sacks and shit.

Sorry dude, you give any team the choice to lock down either PMII or Chris Jones, Jones eats the tag 100% in every fathomable scenario.

Take your 15-16 mil this year, it still good money, get your back to back championships, and when the space is there, the Chiefs can extend properly.

Uncle Merris used to tell us kids, "Always remember kids ... a joke is the truth wrapped in a smile. But a framing hammer to your enemy's forehead is the truth wrapped in a guffaw."

That's why I think Uncle Merris would tend to agree with this opinion.

Veach needed to wrap up Jones while awaiting the CBA. They are also a few weeks behind on draft and FA assessments this year, so it helps to table the Jones issue for the time being.

Now they need to renegotiate Sammy's deal.

That’s almost exactly what I posted a couple months back. I was told the cap would skyrocket to 300m in 4-5 years.

The 2020 cap will be 204 (adding to that will be 2 1.5m exemptions)

2021 will be 230-235m

2022 will be 265-270

2023 will be damn close to 300m

By 2024 it will be over 300m.

I’m skeptical about this supposed 85m jump, but Jason has shared valid info before so he deserves the benefit of the doubt.

I wonder if you could save money by fully guaranteeing the contract, since that's the number that matters, anyway. Would Jones sign for $13M a year, if it were 100% fully guaranteed? Like 6 years, $78M?

No way. Even offering him that would be a huge sign of disrespect that would lead to a holdout and getting minimal compensation in a trade.

When you talk about trading Jones and filling needs at LB and CB without acknowledging that interior pass rush jumps into our top 3 needs the second that trade is made, it certainly seems that way.

If you trade Jones for a 1st and a pick next year, it doesn’t make it any easier to fill needs through the draft this year because even though you added a pick you likely are taking a guy like Blacklock or Gallimore with one of your 1st rounders.

Queen might not be a 4-3 MLB , but he’s a ILB in a 3-4 which is why I listed him. It’s a good class whether you want to believe it or not. I mean just compare it to the last few and you could see that.

Also, Baun and Uche are guys that can play ILB.

Even if those numbers were offered without knowing the structure that goes along with that number there is no way of telling how good of an offer it might have been.

Jones and Clark helped a secondary group filled with castoffs and no names to being a very good units. The defense was hot dog shit without him on the field.

Haha. WOW.

What an unfathomably stupid take.

Listen, id like Jones to be here as much as the next guy, but this is some next level stupidity with this statement here.

Yes let’s trust Petro over Rapoport and Mike Garafolo

It really isn't about trust.

Ignoring what someone says because you don't like it is so fake news reactionary. It's not like Rappaport and Garafolo are reporting what the original contract offer was and contradicting what Soren has heard.

You’re choosing to believe what fits your agenda. The only difference is the guys we’re choosing to believe are reliable while the guy you’re choosing isn’t.

Daniel Jeremiah mocked us Ross Blacklock in his new mock. He’s connected to our front office and we did meet with this kid.

Would be a total Andy/Spags pick too. Imagine a big, super athletic rusher on the inside next to Jones.

Can't believe anything being leaked by an NFL franchise during the draft season.

i’d rather keep him over frank clark. but unfortunately we’re stuck with clark and jones has to go.

watkins and jones basically have to go. go crunch the numbers all you want.

Yea it sucks being stuck with the guy that had the most QB pressures and sacks in the NFL the last half of the season and playoffs.

The only reason they’ll trade Jones is if they literally can’t get a deal worked out.

And FFS look at Veachs history with contracts...do you think he’s out there low balling a Jones when he paid Clark and Landlord their worth?

Petro is looking for clicks. Paylor has info and real relationships.

DEVILS ADVOCATE POST

Brett Veach can’t get a deal done with Jones and trades him for a first and fourth this year and a third next year (that can go to a second if he hits certain triggers) to a team like NO or Seattle. We still have Saunders and Nnadi and a great DL coach. Clark, Kpass, Speaks and Harris at DE.

Veach takes the cap space and gets deals done with CHJ, Breeland, Pennell, Williams and Wisnewski.

Uses the first to trade down to early second round adding a mid third in the trade. Yielding a second, 2-thirds (one next year) and a 4th.

In this draft, that’s a lot of firepower.

...

My preference would be to keep a great player and fill those other spots with different players, but as long as we get a good return, I won’t hate Veach.

If Veach gives Jones away for a 2....I’m not gonna lie I’d be pissed.

Would i be sad a stud like CJ is gone? Yes. Would i also JIMP over that much capitol in this draft? Yes. The only lose situation here is drafting a 2018 draft class with that capitol, or signing him to retarded money.

Ngakoue is the most likely of those to be traded, he wants nothing to do with staying in Jacksonville.

But I agree, it seems like they may have made strides toward a new deal.
