Feel like I heard this same thing 20 times last offseason. We are oh SO close!

Same shit, another day...keep hearing the same things over and over again with no results.

I hope it gets done, just preparing myself for the other outcome.

Rap is almost always first on our news I've noticed, FWIW

I think Veach is his plug

[SHOWTIME]

why are people getting upset that we haven’t signed Jones yet, just after winning the SB a few weeks ago? put the pitchforks down.

It's almost like we've seen this movie before.

I don't know how many are upset per se, I think we all just see the reality that if he gets to FA, he's probably going to get an offer that the Chiefs won't match.

For the record, I'm totally ok with that...I'd love to have CJ back but I also trust Veach and co. 100% to have a plan and make it work.

i’m sure a good GM like veach has a backup plan. tyreek left and we did just fine. if jones leaves i will be greatly disappointed, but i’m not throwing in the towel with 15 and Reid still on the team.

I do as well. The only thing that I'm not ok with is the fact that if he walks, KC gets nothing. (Except cap space). But that's only because I don't know plan B at this time.

But again, letting him walk and getting nothing but cap space is a better scenario than paying him only to see him get hurt and/or shut it down having now gotten his 3rd big $$$$ deal.

It's just not common to see players continue to excel on their 3rd contract. It's just a question of motivation.

This isn't like the NBA where you have Bird rights that actually encourage you to 'overpay' for your own guys and allow you to go over the cap to get those deals done. Chris Jones is, for all intents and purposes, a free agent. Oh not formally, but it's how his agents are playing it. And if Jones were a free agent, we wouldn't be saying "Oh no, if we can't get him signed, we won't get any compensation..."

No - we'd just go onto the next possible option(s). And that's just not the end of the world. Veach has shot his shot here. He appears to have been extremely aggressive in terms of AAV and guaranteed dollars. If that's not good enough, then you just have to move on.

Oh, I agree. When I say that it bothers me that we didn't get anything for him , I was referring to the fact that I was wanting to trade him last year, before the draft. But, he proved to be very instrumental in winning another Super Bowl, so I can live with the fact that we if we lose him, we're not getting anything for him, but in reality we already did, which was another Super Bowl title.

It's not exactly "nothing;" if Jones walks it's a future 3rd.

Eh - in all likelihood we'd sign other guys that end up offsetting that comp pick. We may still get something, but we're in win-now mode; we're spending up to the cap and likely doing so as aggressively as possible.
