Not sure that it matters. Leftover cap money this year will roll into next year, so if it is not spent, it will be there to spend in the future.

I trust in Veach. The team will be better next year than they were this year.

Ty ain't playing that X WR I doubt.

I'd check on Galladay I suppose, but his hip is a big meh

I'm surprised KC hasn't made a real push for Golladay. Expensive, yes, but would be an absolute game changer.

Hilton can play anywhere, question is how many games you get.

HAHAHAHA

Wasn't steve nelsons bitch ass talking all that shit about KC

****ing burnt toast

Maybe he’s out of their price range. Maybe they will now that Juju is gone.

Golladay is bordering on Watkins brokedick territory. Hard pass.

We know the Chiefs will pay a WR if they think he's worth it. It was obviously more than they felt he was worth.

ROFL

Dude turned down more money on a multi year deal from the Eagles. Jesus.

He’s definitely not worth $18 million.

What a shitty free agency.

That and the 18 million dollar price tag he supposedly is holding out for. Really shocked about juju. The **** is he thinking? Less money for a team that seems over him him anyway.

?

His only injury that im aware of was last season. I dont see the comparison.

Uh oh, here comes Staylor...

There isn’t one.

Right. Which is why they can’t panic and overpay for a bunch of guys just because, that’ll bite you in the future.

He's thinking that if he's gonna take a 1-yr prove it deal, it'll be easier to do on an offense he knows with a QB he knows. He's betting on consistency.

I think Veach is deliberately low balling people...


There is just a bunch of supply...No need to overpay.

Browns just grabbed Anthony Walker who is better than Hitchens for 3.5 million, 1 year!

It's a 1 year deal...who cares? It's not like it was a multi year deal that could hurt us in the future if we overspent. We have like $20-$30mil in cap space. We couldn't push an extra mil or 2 to seal the deal?

I don't get the logic from both sides. Turning down our deal on Juju's part and not offering more than $8mil guaranteed if it looked like he was leaning towards staying.

Hopefully we’re going after Josh Reynolds.

Managed to play a full season once in his career.

Not ideal so far but there’s still a lot of quality role players out there

Maybe. But in addition to all the other Big Rape problems that Pitt has and other WR target issues-they still have massive holes all along the oline.

Like who?

Alshon Jeffery? DeSean Jackson?

What about Schwartz? He's made clear that he and his family are going to continue to live in Kansas City. Is there a plan to bring him in midseason after his back has completely healed? I just can't see him going somewhere else when he so adamant about the roots he's put down in Kansas City.

Chiefs probably had a no tik-tok dancing clause on JuJu's punk ass

awesome....looks like we will have 3 game a year Sammy back

thought he was spotted at a buffalo ny best buy or something

Isn't he in BUF?

Guys, stay calm. It's only day 5 of free agency.

Veach has this.

Seriously. Can't blame Veach on Juju being a ****ing moron.

Veach watching all these FA's wanting to stay with their own teams

https://media1.tenor.com/images/d80f...temid=10358403

This

Apparently you can. We should have overpaid so that everyone could bitch about the overpay.

Keep up the good work. LMAO

He would be 3rd here as well behind Hill and Kelce.

Exactly.

You can’t win with these entitled miserable ****s.

Thank god I don't have to root for that dipshit.

Seems the Ravens were willing to go over and he was still like, nah.

Sometimes a player makes a stupid ass choice and that's what happened here.

If you are a receiver I can totally understand why you would avoid the Ravens like the plague

Antonio Brown is available... :)

At this point I think Lamar Jackson might be preferable over Ben's old corpse ass.

Do you think 1 year $10 would have been an overpay?

Nope. Now go look at what the Ravens offered him. He wouldn’t have taken $10 from us either.

Apparently the entire NFL does based on his market.

Do you know for a fact that it would have gotten it done?

So is Josh Gordon, he can even bring his current teammate Johnny Football over to be Mahomes backup :p

Why should the Chiefs overpay? No need to.

JuJu is more of a slot. We had a price, he didn't want it. Next.

9 mil from a team that throws the least amount of times in the league is different from 10 mil from one of the teams that throws the most.

So you’re pretending to know what JuJu was thinking....

It’s pretty obvious that it would’ve taken a significant difference to get JuJu to leave his comfort zone where he knows the offense and feels he has a better shot for next years market.

No maybe it wouldn't. But telling a player that they're 100% guaranteed to get $2mil more by coming here is a significantly better selling point than telling them they might get $3 more mil coming here.

Don't you think?

Of course more guaranteed money is better than incentives. Who is arguing against that?

You are saying the Chiefs should’ve offered more. They didn’t. Deal with it. You didn’t get your boy JuJu, so you’re playing armchair GM telling us “well I would’ve guaranteed it all” when we don’t even know if it would’ve made a difference. It’s futile and just your way of deflecting from the fact that the Chiefs offered more than Pitt and still didn’t get him, so you can try and put the blame on the Chiefs too. That’s on JuJu, not Veach.

JuJu would have been a disaster

**** that guy

I don't need some shithead dancing on logos for tiktok fame

****ing bundle of sticks

NEXT

JuJu was probably afraid snoop dogg wouldn't be a fan of his next team

We already have a guy like that. His name is Jackson Mahomes.

Frankly i'm a little surprised JuJu didn't come here simply for the business opportunities he and Jackson could've drummed up.

Gotta pivot. Didn’t get Williams or juju

Pivot on to another option. Swing a trade etc

At this point, we’re throwing shit at the wall hoping something will stick.

Dumb****s think the NFL off-season is Madden and you can sign anyone you want. We lost on 2 guys who obviously had no intention of leaving their current teams.

One guy was ridiculously overpaid and has a loyalty to Super Bowl Chokeartist, Kyle Shanahan and the other guy is loyal to soon-to-be-retired Rapelethisberger.

It's their respective losses, not the Chiefs.

Or can be used to frontload an extension to Badger.

I wonder if juju would just give me the 3M.

he 'proved it' this year by catching 100 balls, he was still not being offered the money he would have hoped for - why woud next year be any different?

Mitch Schwartz has really good takes. Doesn't he have a personality too?

He needs to be on ESPN.

Obviously getting a vet wr would be nice but I'd happily take Kyle Fuller, Clowney/Dunlap and Alexander for the defense right now with Okung as a vet LT. All is not lost yet yall.

Still some time though.

Because this year was terrible for FA WRs overall.

Free agency is for supplementing your roster and filling holes

Find the cornerstones in the draft. If something presents itself in free agency fine.

They need to fill some holes in defense and go heavy on offense in the draft

Im guessing we shift our attention to DE at this point.

ESPN isn't looking for people with good takes.

Not ideal but the reality is if Veach is going to keep this team as a contender he's going to have to draft well and fill in some of these spots. You can't stay afloat only through FA. It's too expensive and there's no guarantee you'll get the guys you want.

Maybe player and agent are supposing salary cap is lower this year and new TV deals may improve chances for multiyear next year.

This is becoming an every year thing.

If you aren’t getting an elite WR, why would you overpay anybody in free agency when the draft is constantly loaded with talent at the position?

How often has spending big money on external big names worked for us recently?

Frank Clark? No
Sammy Watkins? No
Anthony Hitchens? No

Tyrann Mathieu has been our only major external FA addition that has been worth the money.

That’s an important lesson here. Load up on the Austin Reiter’s, Damien Wilson’s and Dan Sorenson types who just do their job effectively, look for lottery tickets like we did with Ward and Ogbah and then attack the draft.

Schwartz was a great one.

But yeah, go looking for bargains. There’s plenty out there on the defensive side of the ball

We WON A SUPERBOWL with those guys. All of them were very important to winning that SUPERBOWL!

Man I cant believe some of the stuff written here lately.

When you’re desperately wanting some kind of action, this is what we get. Sad.
