Chiefs Would you give Jones 3/100m or trade him?

**BossChief** · 01-07-2023, 09:56 PM

We might as well start the conversation.

Aaron Donald got a 3 year extension worth 95m and Jones won’t/shouldn’t accept a penny less.

We can probably get the equivalent of 2 firsts if we trade him.

Poll will be up in a minute…

Megatron96 · 01-07-2023, 09:57 PM

Seriously? We can't wait until after the SB?

**dannybcaitlyn** · 01-07-2023, 09:58 PM

I’m keeping the best DT in the game and build around him.

TwistedChief · 01-07-2023, 10:00 PM

He can’t get as much as Donald. It needs to be less. Donald was threatening to retire and is just better.

There’s a middle ground here in this poll.

He would have no motivation to take less than Donald with a year left on his deal.

I’ve said it many times, Chris Jones is a total unicorn and imo KC should extend his deal as well as draft a big timer at DE to play across from George long term.

If this defense gets to have a dominant DL, the sky is the limit.

No motivation? The dude is under contract for another season and everyone knows Donald got more than he should’ve for the dysfunctional Rams because the alternative was retirement.

ThyKingdomCome15 · 01-07-2023, 10:37 PM

I voted to tag him in a couple years but that's assuming he doesn't threaten a holdout like Tyreek allegedly did. His deal is fine as is.

Also, I think George and Dunlap are drawing more attention. Our DL is a lot better than last year for sure. Saunders has finally come on as well.

Better??? Certainly not this year

I would keep him for less than $95, but I voted to trade. Patriots made a dynasty out of trading players when they were at the peak of their prime...

I agree with this right here.

Donald and Ramsey are showing you cant simply cover up the inconsistent play of other positions on a team no matter if you're debated as the best at your position. How much money is tied up in those 2 on the defensive side of the ball, I'd love to know.

Trading Jones, you get a bulk of new players on small contracts. Obviously you know what you're trading, and you don't know what players you're getting but you really only need to tie in your $ to your QB, and some key pieces here and there. I feel like NE was the first team that started the whole, "don't pay RB's top dollar" anymore.

After the Tyreek trade, I’ll just trust whatever Veach does.

Veach won’t panic and overpay. He also won’t trade him for peanuts.

it’s the only way to play for a SB every year. You have to trade your best players in their last year. Hope the new players improve the team.

The Pat’s did it. Great Oline. WR JAG’S and a good defense. Veach may already be following that model.

that’s the bottom line……. In Veach we trust.

comochiefsfan · 01-07-2023, 10:11 PM

I'd be fine with either.

He's only 28, so odds are good he would remain elite through the life of that deal.

At the same time getting cheaper and younger will only benefit us going forward.

The extension would be for years 30, 31 and 32.

The alternative for a trade is opening up that cap space and getting a load of draft picks to further invest in the team.
