But that's still $10 million a year, and that's leadership numbers. LJ is not a leader on this team, and it's hard to see where the Chiefs would like to draw the line.

4 years $40 million sounds about right. The man has to be paid now. Career ending injuries can happen at any time. Ask Terrell Davis and Priest.
The man's job description changed radically last season. He played and proved that he's a beast as a season-long starter. Now it's time for the Chiefs to pay him like one.
