What’s your preference for Tyreeks future?

[BossChief]

28.2m AAV is what Adams just got and he got 5 years while on the franchise tag. Adams is a little over a year older than Tyreek and LV traded a first and second round pick for the right to pay him the largest contract in history for a WR. Tyreek is going into the last year of his contract and can be franchised next season, if needed …but then it gets dicey…

Tyreek turned 28 and an extension would start at 29. HOF WR. Loves the team and city. Perfect fit for offense and Pats arm. It’s hard to even think of him in another jersey, but at close to 30m per year? That’s tough.

I think the options are kinda limited for his future.

We pay him market value.
We trade him for similar compensation
We franchise tag him until we can’t.

Poll incoming

Trade him.

You’re returns will never be greater than they are now.

[displacedinMN]

keep him forever

[smithandrew051]

Depends on the dollars and the compensation.

If he brings Adams comp and would cost the same, then I’d trade him.

He’s the offensive take him away and it’s ugly

The devante adams deal is an aids bomb

I just don't understand the point of trying to break the bank on these deals just to end up getting cut because in a year or two the team has cap issues and can't honor the deal

same goes for any player taking a back loaded deal

he's a top 3 WR in the NFL, one of the fastest if not the fastest and is in remarkable shape. Maybe the best in-shape athlete alive. I hope he retires a Chief and goes to the HOF 5 years after he retires. Maybe when he's 35 you can let him go at that point.

There’s never been a WR like Tyreek. Seriously the guy runs a 40 in the low 4.2’s and has a 6.5 3 cone.

Even when he starts to slow down he’s still going to be damn good. You don’t even think of letting him go until he’s 31 IMO

[Archie Bunker]

I probably knock him too much on size but I do feel like once he looses a little bit of that gear, he could problems but I feel like he’s really underrated as far as developing his craft. He’s far from just a speed guy anymore.

Tough call really.

If we can get 1st and 2nd round picks off a team very likely to finish in the bottom 10-15 of the league every year like the Raiders then you have to try and stack some picks for Tyreek. Production for WR1’s starts to fall off around age 30 so it wouldn’t be a bad play to draft a top 10 WR and get some more cheap players to build around as well. It’s not like there is a shortage of talented young receivers coming up every year. Yeah, I love Tyreek, but if I could trade Tyreek and draft a stud WR like Chase or Justin Jefferson, and get solid starters on rookie contracts with the extra 1st and 2nd day picks….I’ll do that everytime. The gamble is not having that WR produce, but that’s football. I think I’d rather take a gamble on drafting a WR in the early 1st round than ****ing up and signing a WR to play into his 30’s taking up a huge chunk of your salary cap. The numbers usually side with the young draft picks if history shows us anything.

He's such a unicorn, I'd ride him until he breaks...to hell with the consequences.

[Bowser]

My preference for Tyreek is for him to beat Weatherman Kumke's ass at training camp in the near future

Here is history of salary cap.

I expect it will continue to increase as it has every year except for 2021.

All the elite positions are going to adjust upward.

$25 million AAV in the upcoming years is going to be what $17 million AAV was 3 seasons ago.

Pay Tyreek market value.

[TribalElder]

I hope Tyreek plays for KC until he retires

same goes for Kelce and Mahomes

They are all time greats and I hope they spend their entire careers here in KC

Darryl Green a HOF CB with the same physical specs as TH and the fastest man in the NFL for much of his career retired at the age of 42 and still could pull a 4.4 and in his prime for 2/3 of that 20 yr career could still run 4.2-4.3. Tyreek ain't losing any speed or quickness anytime soon. Longterm deal, PERIOD!!
