When this team has decided to actually go get free agents, they've spent a ton of money and the cap generally hasn't been an issue.

Yea like how we could never sign big name guys yet Sammy Watkins was a top 5 dude on everyones list...it's about spending money nothing more.

You can always tag Fuller for an extra year if need be.

Sure seemed to me like he was talking facts, not his opinion. I believe he's still pretty in tune with the Chiefs organization.

Thomas is definitely better than guys like Fuller and Jones but they are good players who should be kept if possible.

Absolutely.

It's just funny because 1) we can sign Thomas AND keep them and 2) they aren't even due until next season but people are absolutely freaked about potentially not signing 2 guys that aren't even elite.

Pretty sure he, and everybody else, is speculating on compensation based on the Cowboy leaks from last spring.

1. Trade and sign Thomas to an extension.
2. Extend Hill at the end of this offseason.
3. Extend Jones and Fuller at the end of the 2019 season (if you want to).

Not. ****ing. Hard.

Say goodbye to our pass rush.

Seriously I don’t see a problem with signing Tyreek and Jones this Spring even if we get Earl Thomas.

Our pass rush left 2 years ago.

Isn't our cap in '19 45 mil or so?

Because we can't draft or sign anyone else?

Thomas is a 3 time all-pro....which means he is best of the best at what he does. He takes his craft serious. So yeah..I'd say Earl is better than those two...at least for now.

Thomas might be better than Berry....he probably is at this point in his career. EB is racking up devastating injuries.

Exactly - they should extend Hill ASAP and lock him up.
