Let's talk about the Nate Taylor monologue

[Urc Burry]

If Veach had offered Sneed 13-14 mil a year for 4 years last year Sneed signs it in a heart beat. It’s Veach’s one major flaw.

Now Sneed did take a gigantic leap, and he’s going to be glad he was never offered

How do we know he didn't?

There are rumors that the Chiefs intended to work on an extension with Sneed but the Jones thing prevented it.

Sneed was on such a low 2023 salary that it was going to be difficult to reach an extension that didn't yield 3-4 times the cap hit for them in 2023. After having already partially tapped the Mahomes contract (and having passed the time to get more from it) as well as having restructured Thuney, there just weren't enough levers left to be pulled.

Which is again to say - **** you, Katz brothers.

Players like Sneed don't want to take early deals. And why would they? Their first 2 years are marked by them being a good CB. Why would you not bet on yourself?

Worst case happens and he tears his ACL or ruptured his Achilles. Bashaud Breeland went through a worst case scenario and still made $9 million in 7 years.

A decent corner in this league is getting at least $5 million APY. He'd still make that if it didn't work out. Why not shoot for the stars if you're almost assuredly getting $5 million a year as a baseline?
