Wrong, you don't even have to do math. Your link provides the info. If he retires after June 1 it is a 500k savings.

only way 2.3 is saved is via a trade.

Both styles have worked to a legendary degree.
The only way to beat Mahomes is to have both defensive ends win at the same time.

One guy by himself isn't enough.

So true. Thuney is so good you really don't even have to think about him.

About the only time he's even discussed is when people talk about moving him to LT.

Freaking love dudes like that.

Great job by both of them, - Joe Thuney and Brett Veach.

So why are we even talking about him retiring again?

We're not. I merely asked if anybody had heard anything. Everybody so far has said "no" so there's really not any discussion of it, as evidenced by the last dozen posts or so talking about his contributions to the team, not about retirement.

He was phenomenal in Super Bowl LIII and LVII. Impressive shit.

I was worried about this deal given the history of New England FAs, but he's earned his keep.

Ranked as the 2nd best IOL in football on ESPN's rankings from league personnel. The guy is Mitchell Schwartz, except he plays G. He's worth every penny. He's an iron man who is the same guy every game. An outstanding technical savant.

He probably makes the all time Chiefs roster.

I’d have the OL as:

Roaf Thuney Humphrey Shields Schwartz

That would be a badass OL. Probably recency bias, but these are the best years in Chiefs history so it’s not too ridiculous. Obviously you can’t argue Roaf and Shields either.

I was just thinking that, nobody talks much about Thuney. We sure talked a lot about previous LG's that we had lol. You definitely notice a Cam Irving ****ing up more than you notice a Joe Thuney doing his damn job very well

Where does Thuney rank on the list of Chiefs free agent signings?

Yep, choosing between Waters and Thuney is tough.

My armchair read is that Waters was a mauler and superior run blocker, but that I'm taking Thuney in pass pro.

That was my thought too.

Since Mahomes is obviously the QB, I’m valuing pass pro over everything.

Not really a wrong answer between Waters and Thuney though.

I was wondering that too

Len Dawson
Priest Holmes
Mitchell Schwartz
Tyranny Matthieu

Who else is on the list? I'm bad at remembering how we got guys.
