Jones vs. 1st Rounder + $20m

Obviously this is going to be a key discussion this offseason. On The Athletic's podcast (Time's Ours), Nate Taylor said that he's heard that there are multiple teams out there who would give us a 1st round pick for Jones (assuming we tag and trade him), and possibly more than that.

So just to lay out a simplified version of the options:

Option 1:
Chris Jones (probably around $20m per year)

Option 2:
1st round draft pick (cheap for 4-5 years)
$20m worth of other players

For context on how much other players might cost based on recent free agents we've signed:
Clark - $21m
Mathieu - $14m
Hitchens - $9m
Schwartz - $8m
Okafor - $6m

So...which way do we go?

I would argue that Solomon Thomas is not a tough decision to make.

6 career sacks for the 3rd overall pick. That’s an easy decision to make. Buh bye.

It all depends on what they have at DT at that point and what he wants for a contract.

Looks like the Spirit of Eric Berry will likely be a top 10 cap hit for the Chiefs in 2020. Just a little reminder of how big money contracts can sometimes bite you in the ass and not let go for a few years.

If he checks out medically, I prefer Swift. He is more elusive and catches the ball cleaner. I’m not seeing RB as a priority pick at #32, but these guys arguably could be the BPA at that pick depending how the board falls.

Why does everyone keep saying next year? It is this year as we are in 2020.

No we don't. Not at all. We do not need to draft a RB until day 3 if we draft one at all.

I'm currently in "we won the Super Bowl!" mode, not "we're fighting to get to the Super Bowl" mode. Therefore, the 2020 year is still "next year."

Also, to get technical about it, the 2020 league year doesn't start until March 18th.

If berry comes back into the league next season does that help get rid of our cap failure

also RE: Next year

The official start of the 2020 NFL year is March 18 when free agency kicks off.

Unfortunately, no. The $8m is his prorated signing bonus, and we can't take that back, nor will another team signing him affect that.

That win lasted a few days. Not even a week before I was in the mode to see us try and do it again.
And the "technical" part makes me think of people that work over nights and say "It is not the next day until after I have been to sleep".

Upgrading the interior OL will be more beneficial to the running game than grabbing a RB early.

Williams, Thompson, and a rookie RB with a better interior OL is more than good enough when you have Mahomes and Reid.

Williams, Williams, Thompson, McGuire would definitely be more effective with an improved OL.
