I’d love to keep these corners together for a few years’

I wouldn't consider a $15-18 million contract to be big money. That's around 50-60% of what Chris Jones wants.

You've got Danna, Gay, Tranquill, Sneed and Jones walking off the defense next year.

I don't think you're gonna have a defense at the level next year as we do this year and I dn't know that I'd really go chasing trying to replace it with $. Keep drafting there for sure, but go spend on some offensive weapons.

Sneed will get 20 plus mil a year on the open market.

No chance you get him for 15-18. If he were gonna sign for that here, that deal woulda been done a while ago

What are Gay and Danna likely to get next year? I'd really like to try to keep those guys around, too.

The real strength of this defense is its unceasing depth. Yeah, we've got stud players for sure, but if we have to start making some tough decisions on which guys are gonna walk, I think quantity might outweigh quality by just a bit.

Logan Wilson got 4 years 36 mil. I'd guess about that for Gay?

And give me quality all the time. Easier to add quantity and depth than high end players.

When we see practically zero drop off when Sneed is out, though?

Ehhh…….

If Jones is gonna walk, I'd see if Chase Young gets away from San Fran and you could get him on like, Alex Highsmiths deal.

4 years70 mil, with about 35 GTD could really bring you some value if he hits his ceiling. Josh Allen is probably walking from Jacksonville this year, that's another buy lowish type guy maybe, but he's on pace to have 15 sacks this year so that ain't gonna happen.

Sneed is a great player, but he's in his last year here. Once guys hit the market, rarely do they sign with said team they're leaving.

He's either a tag and sign or he's walking.

Writing is on the wall there.

Sneed is not getting $20+ million LMAO

He's never been a pro bowler or all pro selection. Be real here man. He's probably gonna get around $18 million per. And that's what Veach is discussing now to get ahead of FA.

Keep in mind the contract will probably be inflated in that last year when he could be cut so the cap hits the first years would average like $16 million.

He's not signing during the season, this close to FA. If you think he's getting 18 here, once he hits the market and can get teams bidding, he'll get 20 plus. Basic economics.

It would be terrible by his agent if he let him sign a deal this close to FA without absolutely taking the Chiefs to the cleaners.

Plus, go look at the FA CB's about to hit the market. Sneed is by far the best one. Maybe Jaylen Johnson but I'd guess he gets tagged.

Sometimes players opt for this kind of secure deal, though. It's far from the norm, but it's not some once-every-ten-years kind of thing to see a great player sign a midseason extension that is probably worth less than what they could have got on the open market.

I am sure I read part of Jones deal for this year was no tag in 24. He's leaving. Keeping Snead is a win.
