Chiefs and Jones agree to new deal

[philfree]

I'm not worried about Mr. Chris not living up to this contract. I think him and the other stars on this team understand where this team is historically, and it matters to them. I fully expect Jones to ball out this season to achieve the 3-peat and extend the dynasty. Mahomes, Kelce and Jones will lead this team through the season and it's going to be great. Can't wait!

This is the way.

I love Chris Jones. For sure top 3 DT of my lifetime. I wanna get excited about this contract. I just can’t help but think the money could of been better spent somewhere else. It seems like everybody’s really happy and I hate to be that guy, idk..

Don't worry. They insult me more than any. You thoughts are not crazy. Only another another title make the contract worth it.

I think the reason you feel that way is we need to see the offense get better. It hasn’t yet but hopefully we see some really good drafting and maybe a FA

By signing Jones and Tranquil already, the defense is going to be good. Just need some depth along the DL and we’re ready to go.

If we get some form a veteran LT and a moderate WR, we’re in terrific shape for the draft.

The draft can realistically go 70-30 offense-defense without needing to reach for a glaring need.

How will this affect Bolton? Also do you mean go ahead and get a WR before the draft because that’s what I’d like to see happen. I know we can pick some really good players this year but a lot of times Andy won’t play rookies unless he has to (Rice)

Bolton is getting paid. Spags loves him and I wouldn't be shocked if the man's mentioned twice in Spag's will.

With how good Veach has been drafting in the middle and later rounds they can afford to pay a number of studs. You can have a god at each level of defense because you've drafted cheap studs at CB and LB. Mahomes has reached the level where he scored enough points to win vs. a top 5 D in the SB with the most scrub set of WR's I've ever watched in a SB. I don't think the NFL can produce a defense in this era that can prevent Mahomes from winning.

We will draft a WR, we have Jerry Rice already

I wouldn’t be surprised if he plays here through ‘27 and then retires with a hand covered in rings.

Wait, am I reading this right… wouldn’t that year one cap hit be like $6.5M plus whatever proration is left from the last deal?

This contract has a 7.3 mil cap hit year one (6 mil in SB and 1.25 salary).

The previous contract has a 3.4 dead cap hit.

So in total Jones will be counting for about 10.7 against the cap.

Lets hope not.

The history of Clark Hunt stepping in and forcing a deal to get done is not great.
