Sounds like Chiefs & Honey Badger are far apart

They'll figure it out soon enough, no worries

When will CP ever learn. Veach said HB will get an extension this offseason. If you seriously are questioning Veach you should be banned forever

Who are you complaining about?

I literally shared that they are far apart, which they are.

I’m sure it’ll be fine, just like Chris Jones last year.

$21.7 million in cap space projected next year with Orlando Brown Jr and Tyrann Matheiu as our only major assets unsigned.

I think it would be best to get him another 3 year deal with a way out after year 2.

I’d imagine that Veach wants to extend Thornhill which means he’ll have 3 more years of cheap cap hits counting this year.

He’s got a few more years but then we will need to pay Sneed and Thornhill

They will make up with each other be patient.

I assume he's going to want to be the highest paid safety at a minimum. And he deserves it.

Tyreek will need to be extended as well next offseason

Cutting Hitchens and Clark plus restructuring Mahomes bonus again will give us plenty of room.

No. We don't need to do that.

I actually don't think they're that far apart. They just wanna take their time and get it right. You know HB would love to retire as a Chief and play out his career here.

It's just gonna take a minute. They have to figure out what to do with Frank Clark and Reed as well. Those will be two gaping holes if KC lets both walk next year (Frank getting cut.) Lotta big contracts coming up.

If Honey Badger walks next year I have full confidence in Veach drafting another gem.

If HB was 25 then yes. His age is what makes this tricky.

It might not be best to sign him long term. When little guys lose their speed things go south fast. He has a lot of miles.

If he plays well this year, maybe franchise tag him.

Perfect scenario would be we have him for one more year then cut bait when he hits 30.

Not sure how he would handle a tag though. I'd prefer to avoid a long term deal.

I like the guy, but not sure I would break the bank for him, especially at his age.

If he leaves, then so be it. I’m not doubting Veach.
