My source is yahoo sports and Tom Pelissero. That's where I saw max value of 5m. If it is 1.5m then great. My overall point remains the same though that Ceh and Jet cannot be trusted and Jones needs to be on this roster.

And he may well make the roster. You know, I did say that Gore and McKinnon could go to the PS as well. It wasn't like I said that it should be Jones. I said that I thought that he was 1 of 3 that I thought could make it to the PS. Maybe the Chiefs see it that way too. I have no problem with RoJo being the one that they keep on the roster. You missed my point that we could keep 3 RB on the active roster. You didn't argue that McKinnon wouldn't make it to the PS, so my point still stands.

Proven veteran players like Jet and Jones aren't going on anyone's practice squad as both of them have said they had other options. So all they'll do is go and explore those options once again. Go through other teams rosters and tell me RB vets of Jet and Jones's quality who are on practice squads?
