But let's not white wash away how restricting that will be toward having a complete team.

If the goal is having a complete team, you probably shouldn't sign Mahomes to a monster deal either.

Yeah. And why can’t we expect Veach to keep getting these good players on rookie contracts?

Buttkicker, Ward, Ragland, Erving, Ogbah, Rankin, Nnandi, Hardman, Thornhill, Saunders.

It’s like people don’t believe in Veach even though he’s proven it

I'm not knocking Veach at all, but you padded that list with some Meh like Ragland and Erving. And Rankin is mostly an unknown at this point.

But I still think Veach has done a good job, just sayin'

It's not that he can't. There were resources used to obtain that talent.

Charvarius Ward - cost = traded Parker Ehinger = 4th round pick
Reggie Ragland - cost = traded 4th Round pick
Emmanuel Ogbah - cost = traded Eric Murray = 4th round pick
Cameron Erving - cost = traded 5th round pick
Martinas Rankin - cost = Carlos Hyde (FA)
Derrick Nnadi - cost = 3rd round pick
Mecole Hardman - cost = 2nd round pick
Juan Thornhill - cost = 2nd round pick
Khalen Saunders - cost = 3rd round pick

And then you look at that, and what you said and you think what could Veach do with a 1st and 3rd and free cap space instead of Jones?

While good, none of those players are close to the talent and value as Chris Jones. It’s hard to find DL as athletic and big as him that performs the way he does. Those guys don’t come around often and when they do, they are top 15 picks.

Salary is going up big time after the new CBA. We can keep him. Let’s do it

No problem with keeping him. Who you cutting or not re-signing or both?

LDT
Sorenson
Reiter
Erving

I’d also put 2 more years on Kelce’s contract and push that scam down the road.

The chiefs did the right thing with tagging Jones. While it is very unpopular with players and the guy has earned the right to a multi year deal, dude needs to understand that its the best player on the planet being taken care of before him.

Its not a slight, by any means, but in his Cowherd interview he acts like its this mixed emotions thing, talking about do i need 30 sacks and shit.

Sorry dude, you give any team the choice to lock down either PMII or Chris Jones, Jones eats the tag 100% in every fathomable scenario.

Take your 15-16 mil this year, it still good money, get your back to back championships, and when the space is there, the Chiefs can extend properly.

Except Jones was a second round pick so your entire point is wrong

Spoke with Patrick Mahomes’ agent, Leigh Steinberg, this morning.

I joked about extension being easiest of his career. Steinberg made point of getting Mahomes what he deserves while ensuring Chiefs can maintain a good roster.

My sources are telling me that Pat's going to sign for $36M a year, but its mostly going to be guaranteed. Dak should have taken 33 when it was offered.
