I like the flexibility but have a hard time believing the Chiefs wrote a bonus that big. More likely it is reasonably sized now with another restructure point next year or the year after. If you bonus our $30M at signing, and then another $12M in 2025, and then another $9M in 2026, you bonus out $51M and defer $24M in bonus proration to the last two years. Six/one half dozen/another.

I am thrilled that we locked up Chris. I had stayed quiet in this whole deal as I thought we just couldn't sign him for what he would get offered next week. I had given up that we would lose a player that are as rare as diamonds at his position. He would have been tough to replace. I love Sneed but we can replace him we have a lot of young promise just waiting in the wings. I learned my lesson with Chevarious that Veatch can find good CB's. So happy to have Chris here for the long haul. I can't wait for his speech in Canton Ohio when he hangs it up!

Probably a tiny bit more than I wanted to pay but I'm happy that Jones is back. Trade Sneed and get this offseason rolling.

Does this contract take us out of the running for a decent free agent WR?

If they are going to run a "workout" with Mahomes at some college campus again, I think Mahomes showed with Rice that he has some scouting ability for the team. Mahomes working out with some of these guys increases our ability to draft a WR rather than have to sign a free agent. That might put us in line to sign a free agent OT instead.

Obviously there are large risks with this deal, but these are some aspects I keep thinking about...
1. I would hate to see Chris Jones on another team, terrorizing Mahomes in a Playoff game like what he did to Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, and Brock Purdy the last couple years during super important moments of the biggest games. 2. At least you are not paying top dollar for a dude from another team, like they did with Frank Clark or Sammy Watkins or Jawaan Taylor. Chris Jones has already done unbelievable stuff to help this team win 3 championships. 3. You were already paying Chris Jones $20M per year. So he was already an expensive player. It's not like we are jumping from a 7th round rookie contract to suddenly paying the dude $32M per year. That's what the Niners are gonna be doing with Brock Purdy when he goes from less than $1M per year to $60M per year, lol |

That's all I have been saying but what's done is done. Good he's still for 24 at least.
