Would you give Jones 3/100m or trade him?
 

We might as well start the conversation.

Aaron Donald got a 3 year extension worth 95m and Jones won’t/shouldn’t accept a penny less.

We can probably get the equivalent of 2 firsts if we trade him.

Poll will be up in a minute…

Seriously? We can't wait until after the SB?

I’m keeping the best DT in the game and build around him.

He can’t get as much as Donald. It needs to be less. Donald was threatening to retire and is just better.

There’s a middle ground here in this poll.

I would keep him for less than $95, but I voted to trade. Patriots made a dynasty out of trading players when they were at the peak of their prime...

After the Tyreek trade, I’ll just trust whatever Veach does.

Veach won’t panic and overpay. He also won’t trade him for peanuts.

He would have no motivation to take less than Donald with a year left on his deal.

I’ve said it many times, Chris Jones is a total unicorn and imo KC should extend his deal as well as draft a big timer at DE to play across from George long term.

If this defense gets to have a dominant DL, the sky is the limit.

No motivation? The dude is under contract for another season and everyone knows Donald got more than he should’ve for the dysfunctional Rams because the alternative was retirement.

I'd be fine with either.

He's only 28, so odds are good he would remain elite through the life of that deal.

At the same time getting cheaper and younger will only benefit us going forward.

Watt and Bosa got 27m per and 28m per…but the cap will be significantly higher than when those deals were signed.

The extension would be for years 30, 31 and 32.

The alternative for a trade is opening up that cap space and getting a load of draft picks to further invest in the team.

I honestly think we should go the Eagles route while we have a young cheap secondary. Load up on all the DL and CJ can be the ring leader.

Fwiw, I’d lean towards the trade.

With Mahomes at QB, we just need to avoid the really big mistakes. Paying big money to a DT at his age could go bad.

With the way Veach has drafted (especially this last draft), it’s hard to imagine trading for that comp and freeing that cap space really going wrong.

I just saw in the OP you think we get 2 firsts if we trade him? What????

You think a DT approaching 30 has meaningfully more value than Tyreek Hill?

I’d trade him for that without blinking. I think a mid first and a mid second would
be an amazing return and I’m desperate to keep him.

Extend him and keep the first year on the cheaper side.
