I have full confidence that Veach will do whatever is best for the organization.

He’s gonna be a HOF player regardless of whether he plays here or for another team.

Cut every player left over from SB 54.

Oh....wait. Not that one guy.

I think he’s borderline at the moment.

Rings will play a huge role when examining his case. He’s not getting any more of those if he leaves here.

It’s going to be close for him. He’s not a slam dunk yet like Tyreek.

Yeah totally, 3 rings might not cut it

The hourglass means Veach has to meet his demands, so the Chiefs have likely offered their max to him and he still wants more, so he’s willing to leave the chiefs for likely $3 to $5 million per year more.which is likely tops $15 to $20 million total depending on 3 or 4 years, which isn’t nothing but it shows it’s not about the fans, the city, the franchise or the threepeat, it’s about him and his money.

So he's like every other human being in the world?

And we have a QB getting half a billion dollars and as of now accounting for 60mil in cap space. He too is about the money.

Stop acting like players are so different from every other human being.

Nah. People make decisions like that every day. I had a chance to go to a competitor several years ago for about 20% more. Decided not to go because I liked my company and we were considered one of the best. I had another friend go there and while he was making more he was not enjoying his job nearly as much. He said the extra money was worth it to him, it would not have been to me. These decisions are made daily. Many more jump at the dough, but a fair number don't. Even a smaller number in the NFL. I would rather retire like Jason Kelce if I was Jones, and when you are talking $150 mil in earning compared to $160 mil (est)before taxes.

Jason Kelce was the highest paid center in the league last year so....that's a weird player to bring up.

Sorry that the QB position is the highest paid in the NFL. You can try to say, “BUT WHA ABOUT PATRICK MONEY!?!” But that’s just a stupid comparison. Can every player say that as to why they need max contracts or are you going to be Drue Tranquill and sign the deal and let’s get to work. Not blow smoke up the fan bases ass for two years straight just to be a greedy **** when actions are required.

How much do you think Drue Tranquil gave up? Do you think he was in the conversation for best LB in the league and teams were just banging down his door to make him a high paid LB or something?

And Patrick being the top QB in the league is able to demand what he's paid. Why isn't that same luxury afforded to Jones as the top DT in the league?

When Mahomes signed his initial 10 year deal he stated that he knew that his contract would be eclipsed by other QBs on an annual basis. Sure enough a bunch of QBs started to pass him. What did he do last year? He renegotiated and adjusted his salary to make him among the highest paid in the league. He could have continued to take less for the team but he didn’t, nor should he. Neither should Jones. He’s earned this final huge contract from whoever is willing to pay it.

Why is Tyreek a slam dunk and Jones isn’t?

5x first team all pros for Tyreek as opposed to 2 for CJ95.

Tyreek also plays a much sexier position and has the mystique of his speed going for him.

I think CJ is a HOFer. He may just have to wait longer if he leaves KC.

If he stays he will be a no doubt first ballot lock.

A person can make a pretty strong argument that we might only have one ring if Chris Jones wasn't on the field. His pass breakups against the 49ers the first time and his big third down play in the latest 49ers Super Bowl may have fundamentally changed the course of the game.

Not to mention winning one on one off the edge in the AFCCG vs Cincy at the end of the game last year.
