If you could sign Marcus Peters tomorrow..
to a 5-year $90M contract, would you want the Chiefs to do it?
I bring this up because it is an incredibly tough choice the Chiefs are having to ponder now. The highest paid corner in the league, Josh Norman, makes $15M per year. I am only estimating, but I would bet that extending Peters will take roughly $18M per year. I think I would actually do it if I was Veach, and here is why. The sooner we can get it out of the way, the better. We're just buying back prime years. If they extend him now for 5 seasons, he will be 30 years old during the last season of the contract, his 9th NFL season. Despite the occasional on-field antics, this kid has forced 25 turnovers (19 INTs, 6 FFs) in his first three regular seasons (46 games). TWENTY-FIVE. Absolutely incredible. Good for a turnover more than every other game. He's also had 2 INTs in his 4 playoff games. I thought after the Jets game, when all hell had broke loose, that we should trade him. But, it seems like his teammates love him, so I don't think he is a 'cancer' by any means. Just very competitive. Thoughts? Last edited by pugsnotdrugs19; 01-20-2018 at 07:43 PM.. |

Yep. It will look like a steal by the end of free agency

I would, just imagine this year without him
Every slapdick QB in the league could've sliced us up like a frog in jr high science class... he was flirting with disaster at one point, but the benching really seemed to ground him He will always be a hotheaded mfer, and he'll almost surely have more little incidents down the road... but as long as he can stay dialed in for the most part, he is an easy top 5 corner He wants to be accepted, the more heat he takes over the protests or whatever, the worse it will get... I served in the Army with a guy exactly like him in sooo many ways Talk to him, work with him, try to understand him, cut some slack here and there... and he'll continue being great for us |

Yes, without a doubt. There are very few corners in the NFL that can cover good WR's without committing PI on every play.

If I'm the Chiefs I sign him to whatever contract we think we can that doesn't break us. I'm not concerned with his character issues.

His agent would not let him sign it

In a heartbeat.
After his fourth year in that contract, Mahomes deal would be up and at that point, the Chiefs could move on from Peters from a cap perspective if need be. |

We are already in cap hell. We cannot conceivably do something like this now. Maybe next season.

KC is set to have over $80M in cap space for 2019, so it's not an issue then either. They should try to hammer the deal out. |
