Your also gonna have to choose between Willie Gay and Nick Bolton. The Chiefs won’t pay both $10 mil. + each. I’m going with Bolton if I’m the Chiefs.

JuJu gonna want to get paid. You let him walk and sign another one year ‘prove it’ guy looking to make bank. Mahomes is Mahomes and can make another guy look great and get him a big contract as well the following year. Rinse, repeat.

Bolton isn't signing for $10 mil and could easily sign for a top 3-5 ILB contract which will be around $17 mil/yr.

If Gay keeps playing as well as he has been, then you extend him this off season. He'd be coming off his only season of great production and if you offer him an $8-$10 mil/yr contract, then you can probably get him to sign.

I keep both of those guys, because we've went so long with shit at LB.
