Brett Veach prioritizing re-signing Chris Jones, L'Jarius Sneed

What some of us have been wondering...

Quote:
HENDERSON, Nev. -- Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said he is aware of the challenge the organization faces in re-signing both defensive tackle Chris Jones and cornerback L'Jarius Sneed but said it would be an offseason priority to get both players under new contracts.

"Sometimes I look at our situation and I'm like, 'I don't know how we're going to do this,' but we usually work through things systematically and have a list of the priorities,'' Veach said as the Chiefs continued preparations for Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers. "Certainly, Chris and LJ are at the top of the list.

"It's extremely hard because you have two keystone players there.''

Jones, 29, has been one of the NFL's top pass-rushers for years. He had 10.5 sacks this season to tie for the team lead after missing training camp and the first regular-season game while holding out for a new contract.

He didn't get the extension he was looking for, but the Chiefs sweetened the final season of his existing contract.

"It was important for us to mend the fences with Chris because we love him and he's an iconic player here, not just here, but I mean of all time,'' Veach said. "That was important for us, and we'll continue to work hard and see if we can get something done, but it will be a priority for us.''

The Chiefs used Sneed, 27, this season to defend against the opponent's top receiver much of the time, and none had big games against him.

Jones and Sneed are key players for an improved Chiefs defense that allowed fewer points than all but one other team during the regular season and held the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens to 41 total points in the playoffs.

The Chiefs had defenses that were at times competitive since Patrick Mahomes became their starting quarterback in 2018, but rarely were they consistently so. Veach and the Chiefs found the task of building a top defense difficult because the past few seasons they were carrying Mahomes' massive contract.

"I still remember in '17 and '18 just saying if we can just get them to punt just once we've got a shot,'' Veach said. "Now all of a sudden it's like all we've got to do is just score once and we're good.

"Going from where we were in '17 and '18 to having one of the best defenses, knowing the constraints we had of just paying [Mahomes] and probably drafting later [in rounds], I don't think I ever envisioned having a top one or two defense.''

It all ties together. The pass rush was what it was this year because we blitzed a ton. We did that because we were able to play man on the back end with Sneed and Mcduffie.

One going changes the whole thing.

I'd try and get that #29 pick from Detroit. They need a CB and they've got the cap space.

Not if one of the guys steps up into that role. Josh Williams is a potential breakout player at CB for us.

Williams and Nazeeh Johnson probably have the best chance. Williams was supposed to be the upside guy out of Watson and Williams and Johnson was playing ahead of both before the acl in July.

Williams ain't got the physical traits to match up with guys the way Sneed does.

I don't think you can get a first rounder for Sneed -- remember, the team trading for him has to also pay him a ton. Would you want to give up our first for the "right" to make a player one of the highest paid at his position?

I think at the end of the day you look at value.

-Chris Jones is a harder player to replace, even if he's not the 2022 best version. That's hard to find.
-we don't need a CB1 with Trent here
-Josh Williams was a solid CB this year. Think he's capable if starting and playing well
-Nazeeh Johnson was a camp favorite last year and can do the things Sneed and McDuffie do.
-the defense still played well without McDuffie for half of 2022 and also against the Bengals without Sneed.
-Yhe offense isn't going to rely on the defense to win every game next season.

Mahomes winning on the highest cap hits a QB has ever had in back-to-back years wasn't just him. The Tyreek trade was a huge part of that begin possible. I think it's concerning having major injuries for Omenihu, Allegretti and Thuney.

I think I would trade Sneed, even if you get a 2nd and 4th. Picks are so important, especially when you have a GM with a track record of making great picks.

Yeah, if I could get anything of value for him, I'd do it. But signing him to an extension isn't necessarily an issue.

He'll probably play to the contract going forward.

The issue they're gonna have is Thuney.

So we'll win the Superbowl then with key contributions like the Shark made in the postseason?

Chiefsplanet has some interesting takes...

The Chiefs have had good luck drafting defensive backs. Not as much history with drafting great defensive tackles. Do what it takes to resign Jones and Tag and Trade Sneed. This isn't rocket surgery.

This is a fact, we are looking at zero super bowls if it wasn’t for Jones coming up huge in clutch situations

Not a major issue if you have that extra 2nd. 3 picks in the top 64 could be used on WR, CB and DL or WR, G and DL or WR, LT and DT

Flexibility is key
