HUGE gap with Houston

“Huge” gap exists between Chiefs, Justin Houston
Posted by Mike Florio on August 5, 2014, 4:28 PM EDT
Houston AP

Linebacker Justin Houston was sufficiently upset with the lack of a new contract to skip the offseason program. But he showed up for training camp, realizing that the best way to get paid is to complete the final year of his rookie deal.

The Chiefs rewarded Houston for honoring his current obligations by offering a new contract. Houston didn’t like it. Per a league source, a “huge” gap current exists between the team’s offer and Houston’s demands.

It’s unclear whether that gap will be closed before the season ends and the Chiefs have to decide whether to use the franchise tag. If they don’t work out new deals with Houston and Alex Smith, they’ll have to choose between them. Maybe the Chiefs will choose neither.

The team’s ultimate position on Houston will depend on the development of rookie Dee Ford. Currently, Ford is listed as the second-string right outside linebacker, behind Tamba Hali.

So can we finally all agree that the Chiefs' decision not to spend money this offseason was the right one? We're struggling to bring Smith and Berry in, let alone Houston. And nobody here expected Charles to demand a pay raise either.

It's better to wait one year with Houston. His salary goes up if he has an improved season, but so will the salary cap and the Chiefs are going to have a TON of salary cap relief in 2 seasons once a lot of their bad contracts go off the books. Which means you can structure next year's contract to be cap friendly in year 1 and hit the year after. But agree, he's top priority... though I might put Berry ahead of him in line.

He only reported because it benefits him to show up. If he didn't, he would have been a restricted FA next offseason and would have less ability to earn as much as he'd like.

It seems the Chiefs are the only team in the league that is hyper focused on OLB talent.
Sure, elite OLBs are not a dime a dozen, but why sacrifice every other position on the roster to boast a top OLB pairing to the point where you detriment every other position?

The pick of Dee Ford was egregious when considering the Chiefs overall lack of depth.

I didn't poop on the Ford pick since I was still basking in the glow of the Chargers "Attaochu" pick.

You guys need to fly a banner saying "Enough with the OLBs. We need a TE, FS, 2 WRs, RCB, LCB".

I'd add QB but, IMO, Alex Smith is as good a shitty QB as Stan Humphries was. (That's pretty good BTW.)

A team has too many pass rushers until they don't have enough pass rushers. Then it's much harder to field an aggressive defense.

Just ask Green Bay whenever Clay Matthews gets a crack in his glass vagina. Ask them why they seem so desperate to find a second quality pass rusher.

****, the Giants won two Super Bowls because they never stopped drafting pass rushers even when people said they didn't need any.

Dee Ford doesn't play the same position as Houston, doubt he ever will.

Ford is here to replace Hali


How do they know what the contract situation for Houston is again?

We have to have a shit-ton of pass rushers - our defensive scheme is complete ass without them.

Exactly, with our secondary, we will need every darn one of them attacking the passer or covering the back

Get Houston done now, let Alex play with a chip on his shoulder this year, it'll be a good thing.

I sure hope they dont plan on letting Hali go next year, I want to keep all 3 of those guys for as long as absolutely possible... gimme that awesome depth in a scheme where LB's are so important.
