There's a structure you can pay 38, 95, 23 and still get a vet WR. They are all going to have low base salaries and cap hits in 2024. Cap keeps going up in future years so you can structure their deals accordingly.
Chiefs have cap flexibility with cutting, restructures and converting bonuses. Sneed is a must keep and I'm starting to think Jones is too. You can't just replace those guys and keep this engine humming.

He's been outstanding. I just think he'll be relatively affordable. Give him a multi year deal around 3 years for 11-12 million. He genuinely looks like he loves being a Chief.

It all really depends on what the final salary cap settles at.
There are rumors that it could be close to 250m, but we are using current cap numbers with a 240m cap. If the cap is 250m, we have 34m in cap space. Cutting MVS clears 12m in cap space. I’m expecting to lose CJ95, but it’s a possibility we don’t. And everyone will bitch about it. And we will win 3-4 rings in a row. If the cap rests at 240, CJ95 is probably long gone. |

I bet Jones has asked TH if he regrets leaving and he reluctantly said yes.
Those agents are going to **** up negotiations with other teams and kill CJs market. I hope. Last edited by BossChief; 02-08-2024 at 11:37 PM.. |

I can't see the Chiefs dealing much further with Jones' idiot agents. They will probably offer him a fair deal and move on.

I appreciate BV’s optimism. I suspect that CJ will be tagged & traded. Hopefully they’ll be able to let CJ have input on where he lands, as they did with Reek’s trade to the phins. Great way to maintain goodwill with all of the players in a difficult situation. (Basically treat the player opposite of what Carl Petersen would’ve done back in the day. *DT excluded* Dammit Carl! ) Sneed is younger and currently harder to replace despite BV’s continued success in drafting players for the secondary.

They aren’t going to tag CJ.
Sneed is getting the tag, but I think he could sign an extension before the tag is even needed. |

That’s not what would work against him. He wants Aaron Donald money - $30M a year. He could have stayed with KC by taking about $27M. To establish his worth in the NFL, though, he’s demanding top money. He’ll likely get it, too. Just not from KC.

I suspect Sneed sets the tone on that defense more than we know. If we extend Sneed, we'd have him and McDuffie locked up for the next three years, pretty much guaranteeing a lock down secondary (barring injury). Good teams don't let stars like that go in their prime w/o getting a haul in return. Pay Sneed!

That sounds very much like the Orlando Brown Jr. situation except Chris has a much stronger case for his salary demands. I agree with you, KC will make a final offer and then it's in CJ95's hands. What you won't have is another embarrassing holdout situation. That in itself is a relief.
