Below market? If he plays RT he's the highest paid RT in the game. If he plays LT he's 4th. That aint below market, and was there anyone pegging him as one of the highest paid tackles in the NFL prior to the deal? We need him to perform at a high level, period.

It's kind of odd just how happy/excited coach Taylor looked at the presser. I mean, he's had ample opportunity to study the tape, so he has to know pretty well exactly what OBJ is. And he really wanted him anyway. Guess we'll see if he has a plan for protecting OBj or if he really didn't see OBJ's weaknesses.

Tunsil’s extension with Texans has reset the market. Chiefs & Bungles may both have gotten a pretty good deal based on today’s and tomorrow’s market.

I mostly dodged the question (though I've answered it 'round here somewhere) and went with "it doesn't matter - the Chiefs DIDN'T know the numbers beforehand and that's exactly what OBJ and his 'agent' were counting on..." They signed Taylor because they COULD. Because he ****ing said yes. They've worked on a deal with Brown for 2 years now and all he ever did was play coy and operate in bad faith. That or just sit ass and procrastinate. The only thing that could've really ****ed this off-season up for KC was trying to wait on Brown and he knew it. Had the market dried up around him BEFORE the Chiefs got a deal done, he was going to absolutely hold us over a barrel. Veach fired a pre-emptive strike because he had to. It was no different than Mathieu and his 'top 5 safety' crap. The Chiefs couldn't afford to wait on him to get reasonable so they paid Reid. Meanwhile had Mathieu been willing to sign the deal Reid got from the jump, he almost certainly comes back. Had Brown and his people made that offer to Veach BEFORE they signed Taylor, I'm betting Brown comes back. But he didn't because he simply wasn't operating in good faith at any point throughout this process. He wanted to leverage the market against KC and Veach jumped the market to avoid it. Did it require a bit of an overpay to Taylor? Yeah - probably. Was it still the right move? Absolutely, because Brown wasn't giving Veach a choice.
