8.6 and 10 million.

The Chiefs have NEVER given that much to a RB in a 2-year span in their entire franchise history.

That's where the risk is, dipshit.

Fournette, meanwhile, is entering the final year of his rookie contract and is due to make $4.17 million in 2020. If he stays in Jacksonville, he would count $8.64 million against Jacksonville’s salary cap.

The bridge between hope and reality is a long one.

Yep.

The Chiefs definitely need to add a true feature back in the 2020 draft but they do not need to waste vital resources and money on Fournette.

I know this guy is just a dumb troll, and as a troll myself I can spot 'em a mile off, but Dane I think the upside is definitely there with Fornette. I don't think we'd be able to get him cheap enough but just hypothetically if all we give up is a 5th for him then the backfield would be seriously explosive. Everything I'm reading is next year he's only about 4 to 5 mil not too bad. And it'll free up our 1st round pick for something OTHER than RB which I don't want them to do.

Sifting through the Jaguars trash is like eating out of the dumpster behind a homeless shelter

There are a whole lotta "If" involving Fournette and that doesn't really seem like a move the current Chiefs staff would take, especially given that they'd need to clear at least another $4+ million on top of the $5 million they'll need to clear in order to sign their draft picks.

I think the right play here is to let Jacksonville cut him, then if the Chiefs are interested, inquire about a Vet Minimum deal in order to "restore" his once shiny reputation.

Otherwise, there's just too much risk involved, particularly for a team that has their sights on a second consecutive Super Bowl victory.

He is a malcontent anyways.

And WHY do you keep hanging around my threads like some dumbass fangirl? If you don't like it then guess what you can do? PISS OFF!! :thumb:

Hold on...some stupid prick told me that figure was "wrong"..so are you sure that is the case Rick?

I don't see much risk at all. If we got him for a 4th or 5th round pick then he'd be coming into a championship team where he would be facing empty boxes all season and wouldn't have to have as much carries as he would In Jacksonville, thus he'd be fresher during the season. Last season he was good and the tape and stats prove it.

That's because you have the brain power of a fruit fly

You might be giving him too much credit . . .

Are you just a silly prick naturally or did you have to work at it? If it's the latter then you've done a good job buddy :)

Simply put what provides more value for the Chiefs, a former #4 pick they have to trade a pick for and pay millions to, or a draft pick with at least four years of control who fits the offense better at a fraction of the price.
