That money can get you 2 good players. It sucks, he's a leader and a great player, but at that money, good luck and thanks for the memories eric.

It's sad to think about Eric being a falcon...but I think we all need to remove the emotion from the situation and think about the situation with realistic shades on.

Honestly, I fully believe the defense will be fine if it loses Poe AND Berry.

Berry has the Chiefs by the balls.

He's stated he'll sit out this season if he's franchised and he wants to be the highest paid safety in the league.

If the Chiefs don't sign him, the court if public opinion will be staunchly against them and most likely, savage. If they do sign him to a similar deal that Boss has suggested, he could really hurt their cap for a few years, especially if he has an injury in which he misses a significant amount of time.

My gut tells me Dorsey, Reid and Hunt choose to overpay for the posistion.

He's better than both combined soooo...

Nobody cares about the Broncos third place franchise, troll.

I've defended you but lately you are nothing but a troll.

I think he's gone.

Andy said flat out last offseason that they can't pay everyone top of the league money and then they went out and drafted Murray and immediately started grooming him to be Berrys replacement.

If the public knows that the Chiefs offered him the highest contract at the position and he turns it down, then it does nothing but make Eric look like a selfish money grabber

Save the money. Tag Poe . Trade one of Bailey and Howard. Trade up in the draft and have two first round picks. Feast.

We won't have to pay a QB after 2017 so I'm fine with it.

That contract actually expires nicely when it will be time to pay our next QB.

Let's set the mark at 13.5m per year average (I know it's going to be damn close to 14m per, but it might be slightly under) and make the bet 1 year avatar rights.

Deal?

Sure.

So happy you're not the GM of my team.

They all have similar skill sets, Berry is just a much better athlete.

Hammock Parties 02-03-2017 09:27 AM

I do worry about paying that much with Peters contract coming due pretty soon.

Can we afford to pay two members of our secondary top 5 contracts?

Yep.

The thing is, the Chiefs basically tagged him and told him to prove that he's worthy of the big contract. Is anyone really going to try and make the argument that he didn't prove it in the '16 season?

Seattle found a way, why not us?

They can make it work if they want I suppose. At this point, I wouldn't keep poe.
