Brett Veach prioritizing re-signing Chris Jones, L'Jarius Sneed

What some of us have been wondering...

Quote:
HENDERSON, Nev. -- Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said he is aware of the challenge the organization faces in re-signing both defensive tackle Chris Jones and cornerback L'Jarius Sneed but said it would be an offseason priority to get both players under new contracts.

"Sometimes I look at our situation and I'm like, 'I don't know how we're going to do this,' but we usually work through things systematically and have a list of the priorities,'' Veach said as the Chiefs continued preparations for Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers. "Certainly, Chris and LJ are at the top of the list.

"It's extremely hard because you have two keystone players there.''

Jones, 29, has been one of the NFL's top pass-rushers for years. He had 10.5 sacks this season to tie for the team lead after missing training camp and the first regular-season game while holding out for a new contract.

He didn't get the extension he was looking for, but the Chiefs sweetened the final season of his existing contract.

"It was important for us to mend the fences with Chris because we love him and he's an iconic player here, not just here, but I mean of all time,'' Veach said. "That was important for us, and we'll continue to work hard and see if we can get something done, but it will be a priority for us.''

The Chiefs used Sneed, 27, this season to defend against the opponent's top receiver much of the time, and none had big games against him.

Jones and Sneed are key players for an improved Chiefs defense that allowed fewer points than all but one other team during the regular season and held the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens to 41 total points in the playoffs.

The Chiefs had defenses that were at times competitive since Patrick Mahomes became their starting quarterback in 2018, but rarely were they consistently so. Veach and the Chiefs found the task of building a top defense difficult because the past few seasons they were carrying Mahomes' massive contract.

"I still remember in '17 and '18 just saying if we can just get them to punt just once we've got a shot,'' Veach said. "Now all of a sudden it's like all we've got to do is just score once and we're good.

"Going from where we were in '17 and '18 to having one of the best defenses, knowing the constraints we had of just paying [Mahomes] and probably drafting later [in rounds], I don't think I ever envisioned having a top one or two defense.''

Exactly.

Either Jones signs and we can't keep LJ and we deal him, or we lose Jones and LJ plays on the tag.

ZERO percent chance we lose both.

The biggest lesson I've learned in Veach's time here is that I don't have any ****ing idea what he's going to do. And in the end, it'll be great.

Sucks but this is probably doing to happen. Jones walks and Sneed gets traded.
Nor should he take a discount. He played on a 4th Rounder contract without complaining. Now's his chance at a big payday. Does not mean he demanding market resetting money, but more about getting paid significantly more than he is right now.

He’s going to test FA and will make visits to other teams.

He will return to KC for less than we think. Teams know he wants to return to KC.

Assuming a Sneed trade does end up happening, I hope we can retain Chris and then use an extra draft pick to invest at defensive tackle. Let Chris groom the next guy there.

They’re tampering as we speak, Jones’ goofball agents should know his market very soon if not already and then make a decision off of it around March 11

150? 7 years?

I'd imagine his agent will start to begin the process after this upcoming season if he has another strong year.

And he will absolutely be a 100 million dollar guy, so get ready for that.

Right, agree on that.

I'm just not sure he gets to a point where that's a GOOD investment for the Chiefs. It's possible. I really like him. But he's got to get beyond consistent/high motor/strong pass rusher territory and into "quick win" territory more consistently.

Chiefs fans just need to prepare for that. If he has another 10 sack season, he absolutely would be justified asking for that.

FAU’s development will also feed into that decision as well.

I think they'll pay him like a foundational piece if they think he can be a foundational piece. If not, they'll let someone else pay him like that.

Based on what he's done thus far, I don't see how you could make an argument he's not or atleast that he wouldn't ask for that.
