Who give's a ****... He's $20 per dumbass, and will be less than $20 per year during the 2nd and 3rd year of a Jones extension... Again, It HaS nO BeArInG On WhEtHeR wE SiGn JoNeS...

What would you have done at tackle last year? And did Pat get injured this year?

Based on your justification of Pat not getting injured, we may as well have signed him for $40M per year. They are going to have to restructure a bunch of contracts like Taylor's and/or trade Sneed to sign Jones. And that all depends on if anyone is even willing to restructure.

What? If we were paying Taylor $40 you may have a point, but Taylor is worth $20 per... again, what was your plan for last year if we didn't sign Taylor? Sneed is 95% gone, Veech will pull the trigger for a 2 or even a high 3 if we need to sign Jones. They haven't even made some of their cuts yet. Again, Taylor's contract has nothing to do with signing Jones and those who think Taylor's contract is shitty are football stupid.

i would have taken my chances with someone in the draft. All I’m saying is the Taylor contract was not worth it if the Chiefs don’t do any more restructuring or trades. he was cheap last year, but the cap hit is pretty big for the next 3 years. the guy gave of pressures. mahomes’ scrambling ability made Taylor look better than he was.

You understand Taylor's contract structure is one of the reasons we were able to keep Chris last year? As far as Tackle, Wayna Morris was the 3rd Tackle taken after pick 32, and that include Mauch, from NDSU, that is playing Guard in the NFL. So you would have started Morris? Trade up with a 2nd into the first and get a Tackle but lose Rashee Rice?

Not trying to fight, but I hate folks who don't like Taylor but don't have a coherent answer on what we could have done differently that would have kept Pat upright.

there were better options in free agency at RT last year like kaleb mcggary. he was outstanding for atlanta last year. mike mcglinchey too would have been better. both cheaper than taylor.

So your plan would’ve been to ignore the OL during the core of free agency and go into the draft with no LT or RT and hope someone we liked fell to us?

Wow. That’s…wow.

Yea to me it's clear that Taylor was the best option left. KC overpaid but it is what it is. OBJr decided to go elsewhere for less money that what he was offered the year before.
