Look at it this way:
If you trade Jones you can solve a lot of problems.
If you sign him you create a huge problem that limits this team in the future.
Once traded Jones gives Veach the draft capital he needs to prepare this team for the long haul. With an extra first rounder the Chiefs could then afford to trade out of the first round with one of their picks. The extra pick gained in a trade would also allow Veach the flexibility to move up in the late first round if Veach feels its necessary.
Trading Jones just makes too much sense if you are sitting in the GMs chair as far as I see it.
And Veach is smart to say he wants to keep Jones. Never devalue your asset.

And if we keep Jones it gives us one of the top 2 or 3 D-linemen on planet earth.
You kinda skipped right past that part...
