I’m wondering if this is based on economics.
The NFL is negotiating new TV deals in what looks to be a fairly protracted and/or deep recession, and there may be no/little in stadium revenue for 2020. I think you extend Jones banking on a big 2021 salary cap increase at your peril. |

Regardless of what happens to the economy, sports broadcasts are recession-proof. People aren't going to turn off their TV's on Saturdays and Sundays because the economy isn't doing well and in fact, it's the polar opposite. There's absolutely no rush at this point to sign Chris Jones. The Chiefs are Cap Compliant and most likely have enough to sign their rookies before TC begins. If Jones isn't signed by July 14th, then yeah, it might get a little dicey but the Chiefs will still be Cap Compliant, even if they're carrying $16 million for Jones this season. |

Jones deal just seems unlikely.

If they find a way to televise Football games this season, it will likely be the most watched season in history.

If they can't get him signed by the deadline then they ****ed up. I guess the new CBA makes holdouts less likely, but he won't be happy and we'll just go through this all over again next year at which point he'll be more expensive and eventually it could be cost prohibitive to even franchise him again.

That doesn’t mean that him or Pat would be “the highest paid” players any time soon. It would only be in overall money, not in a year-by-year basis. It would be at least 3 years away for both which means players will come off the books freeing up money and the cap will rise.
You look at this the wrong way, but that’s no surprise

Can you trade for future draft picks. Not knowing if there will even be a college football season

Yeah, that Hitchens contract was incredible.

It doesn't matter.
He'll either play for the Chiefs this season or he'll be traded for draft picks. And considering that there are a number of guys that need medical re-checks but aren't allowed to have team physicals, it would be better to hang on to Jones for the 2020 season under the Tag instead of trading him for unknowns. |
