FWIW Barnwell had drue tranquill in the tier of linebackers of "backups likely to earn guaranteed money" and projected salary in the 1.5-3 mil per season. Even if he was in the next tier up Barnwell had those "borderline starters/high end backups" in the 3-5 million per season range.

We'll never know. And that's fine by me. My only point is that I don't think it was as big of a team friendly deal as twisted seems to think it is.

He would have gotten paid more elsewhere. It most likely also let's us walk from Gay.

I think this is one of those weird ones where it's a good deal in terms of his contributions to the team relative to our other contracts but just a fair deal in terms of market value. He probably would have been able to get more elsewhere, but I don't think it would have been DRAMATICALLY more.

Again, i ask....what did he do last year that he didn't already demonstrate as a Charger in a full time role? Seriously. No, i don't believe for a second that his market shot up as a part time player for us and that he took some home town discount.

I think it’s a much smarter move to bring back Tranquil rather than Gay even if it were the same money. |

But I think Gay brings some really unique attributes to the table that we're going to miss even if Chenal steps up (Leo just doesn't have Gay's fluidity). If I could have either guy for the same money, I'd bring back Gay. But the Chiefs clearly trust Tranquill more and there's something to be said for that.
