But what if Mahomes goes the full Dak.
Seriously — we’ve never seen anything like this. He won an MVP *and* a Super Bowl MVP. He’s had the best start to his career in NFL history.
What if Mahomes comes to you, Brett Veach, and opens at 55m/year? 60m/year?
And if he does come in at an astronomical price that you won’t accept, what do you do? You have him on the 5th year option in 2021, and two years of the franchise tag through 2023.
But this is a guy who our ABSOLUTE BEST SHOT at multiple Super Bowls. How high is too high for that?

Nothing is too high. Mahomes at $50 million is still a huge discount.
I don’t think you understand the value this man has.
