…. And just like that, McDuffie being trade bait becomes all the more possible

Record deal: Texans All-Pro CB Derek Stingley Jr has agreed to a three-year, $90 million extension including $89 million guaranteed. At $30M base value per year, Stingley is now the highest paid defensive back in NFL history. The CB market has been completely reset.

Deal negotiated by David Mulugheta of Athletes First.

Also, a fully guaranteed deal?

Now now, if he tears his achilles they can recoup a million american dollars so

With all of these ballooning contracts, the reality is that we will likely have to pay one out to our blue chip talents.

And we shouldn’t feel bad about that, especially if we end up signing Trey Smith to a deal worth anywhere near $23m APY :barf:

Give me Trent at $30m over Trey at $23 any day of the week.

While I totally agree with that, there’s not much of a choice there anymore now is there?

We’re backed into somewhat of a corner with Trey.

Trent is one of my favorite Chiefs of the past decade, but gosh damn. $30m gets pretty dangerous I feel, especially for a position where you’re just kinda hoping he stays this good through year eight at most.

I say Trade him and keep the team young. That’s not what I WANT because of exactly what you said about Trent. But we’ve been in this situation before where we traded an amazing player away and if paid off in the long run.

We need the OL more than a corner.

Expected after Horn got 25 million AAV from the Panthers. Shitty teams and completely resetting the market go hand in hand.

Bro, this was an assterclass by Houston.

You had the player on cost control for at least two more years. And you gave in to his every desire?

1) made him highest APY by FAR
2) gave him it fully guaranteed
3) gave him the length he wanted to he could hit the market at 28

You’d think this was prime Darrelle Revis we are talking about. But no, just Derrick Stingley Jr.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

The Chiefs only hope for getting Trent still in the $25m range is the fact they also have two more years of cheap cost control.

He never made Pro Bowl, so his 5th year option is substantially lower than Stingley’s was going to be.

Just hate how this reminds me of when we almost had Tyreek done and then Vegas blew the cover off by paying Adams.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Ultimately the Chiefs just gave $6.4m total to Jack Cochrane and Nazeeh Johnson combined. So if we have to give that money to Trent now to keep him, hey, he’s elite. I’d do it.

Just frustrating that we seem to put ourselves in this position by not getting serious on extensions until late summer.

Does this hurt chances of retaining McDuffie?

Or does it just hurt chances of retaining McDuffie AND Karlaftis?

I love George, but he’s always felt replaceable to me. He’s more likely to get paid more than he’s worth, and pass rushers can command decent trade comp.

It’s probably more likely that it plays out that way, you’re right.

My guess is they definitely wait for the draft to unfold now and then see where the depth stands. If we come out of the draft with a DL haul, or a CB early, that may lead their hand similar to what happened with Reid and Jaden Hicks.

Waited too long, now the Texans became the Browns and screwed over everyone else.

Well this is crap
