OBJ getting a 5 year mega deal (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=317031)

You're gonna pay a premium for elite players. It is what it is.

Does he get a FG net stipend?

donald is probably going to be next.

115 million 85 guaranteed i'm betting on that one

Last I read he was wanting 80 mil guaranteed. Damn though, that's crazy.

Is it well-deserved, though? Is it really?

For Odell? I mean, he's put up pretty huge numbers.

That's a lot of money for obj.

FAX THE NORMALLY MORE PRUDENT

#Sarcasm bruh.

People love to shit on guys that get paid for excelling when their team doesn't do much around them. I just hope he doesn't pull a Justin Houston, Eric Berry, Dwayne Bowe, (insert any other Chiefs player who's gotten paid and underperformed here).

can we still trade for Odell, I heard right here on CP he was on the trade block and the Giants didnt want him

The quarterback makes the receiver, not the other way around. Look what Pat did for Albert Wilson, got him a fat contract from one game. Franchise tag Hill for a year or 2 and give Pat the big contract. He will make average receivers into stars.

ALEX SMITH.

He's the only guy on this offense KC needs to keep no matter what. Anyone who can do that with Smith is going to break the NFL with a guy like Mahomes tossing the ball over the top of 2 deep man coverage.

FFS, Watkins is a good deep threat and he looks absolutely mediocre in that regard compared to how Hill runs right past everyone.

God, it's so like Chiefsplanet to spend over a decade complaining that KC never has a legit #1 WR, and when they get a transcendent talent at the position they're like "Eh, just let him walk!"

Yeah, Tyreek is that rare guy where you can see on the field that he's different. He's operating on a different level than all of the other elite athletes. You keep a guy like that and pay him and figure out how to use him. He is not something that other teams can prepare for.

That said, I agree with the point that at some point his pure physical advantage will decline. But by then he'll be more savvy, so I'm not worried about it.

And this is why all the experts shouldn't have all went crazy about the 48 million Watkins got from the Chiefs. Cooks and now OBJ got significantly more. From day one I've liked the Watkins deal. Is there risk in it? Sure, but dame it opens up the field for three of our home grown play makers and gives our young franchise QB another dynamic target.

I'd pay Tyreek and use draft picks on other defenders to make that side of the ball cheaper.

The Cheetah is a generational talent like we've never seen with his speed. Unless you just think the wheels are going to fall off, he's a keeper.

Tyreek has already proven himself an elite receiver in this league. Yes, his speed will decline at some point, but if he continues to improve as a receiver then his ceiling is Antonio Brown.

You don't let Antonio Brown walk over a few million a year . . . .
