Tyreek probably doesn't want to be a Chief for life at his age. He wants to be eligible for another big payday in 3 years.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is accurate. <br><br>My understanding over the last 48 hours is the Chiefs remain in talks with Tyreek Hill&#39;s agent on an extension, but I was told there&#39;s no firm timetable.

But will he be happy being the 3rd option?

So it's going to be like Friday before we sign anybody now. That's the soonest they can monkey with Mahomes' contract.

I think they can restructure Thuney because it’s converting his base salary and not a bonus that they have to wait on.

They can agree to terms. Just sign them on Friday

You'd think if they were going to restructure Thuney, they would have done it already.

Don't know, starting to get a little discouraged that there's been like zero movement on DE or WR.

Don't they have to be under the cap by 4pm today? Or is that Friday too?

By today at 4 PM. That’s what the Clark restructure was for.

Correct

Raiders have been quiet. Thats not a bad signing

So unless they extend Hill or do something with someone else like Thuney, they won't be doing much of anything today. Right?

Also can restructure Kelce as needed to free up some space.

I suspect if they get in a spot where they need the space now or they're going to lose someone they need/want, they'll move quickly and aggressively.

They haven’t technically ‘done anything’ with Reid yet though, have they? We’re still just in the legal tampering period.

They reportedly want Smith and they've been linked to both Landry and Smith-Schuster (more than once).

You'd think those deals could have been done by now if we had the cap space.

Like I said, I'm getting a little impatient because the rest of our division seems to be gobbling guys up. We have so many holes still.

They've agree to terms with Reid. Unless they're keeping things VERY close to the vest (which seems impossible in this social media climate) they've done nothing since other than Frank ****ing Clark.

I’d be more worried if the WRs and DEs were flying off the market but they aren’t yet.

Right.

So I’m saying they could do the same thing with any other potential signings and ‘agree to terms’ then formalize at the start of the league year after Mahomes restructures.

They just…aren’t.

Yeah, you're right there. It is kind of weird.

Yep. That's my concern.

I think I read we're able to create $23m in cap space by restructuring Mahomes, how much for extending Tyreek any one know?

Depending on structure, up to 10-11M, I would guess.

They could just be in on Robinson right now and waiting to see what he’s going to do. I don’t think Juju or Landry are signing before Robinson at this point.

And the DE market could be stalled because of the draft class. Teams don’t want to pay as much as those DEs are holding out for.

Another flip flop...

Weird that you would pass up the Bills for the Commanders.

Ok, assuming the best how would you guys spend that $34m?

Prolly why no news on Allen Robinson. He's waiting for them to get this cleared up first.

A DE or two, a WR and Kyzir White.

Keep hope alive!

$34 million is enough cap space to fit:

Za’Darius Smith
Allen Robinson/Juju Smith-Schuster
Kyzir White
And a RT.

$34m

=

Clowney, Collins, & JuJu

You gotta get a pass rusher or two out of free agency.

I’m super confused why we didn’t just do Blake Bell QB sneaks on 3rd/4th and inches all year. I saw that shit happen like one time.

Sneaks are hard to stop even when the defense knows they’re coming. So why not take advantage of that?

I don’t get it

Tony Pauline briefly talked about the Chiefs off-season plans and said he sees us mostly doing two things: getting Hill extended and then picking up either Landry or JuJu because Mahomes wants a veteran receiver. He said he actually doesn't think we will be in the market for a premier edge like Chandler Jones or Von Miller - the money just won't work. Also said with the Frank Cark restructure makes it even more unlikely.

Pauline was also the guy that linked us to Thornhill during the draft years back and he's usually always spot the **** on.

My guess is they want Za'Darius Smith and Juju.

Really need a WR too so that the draft is wide open.

Is there any chance Melvin Ingram could be back next year? I've been way out of the loop recently.

I'd be fine with that. Just hope it actually gets done.

Not the sexiest of the bunch but if it happens I'd call this off-season a win tbh. Hopefully the money is right on Smith's deal though.

Ingram probably won't sign for a while. He didn't last year.

Derrick Gore back in KC

Yeah...that was earlier this morning.

I'd honestly rather have Arden Key over Smith but I have yet to hear any interest that they have in Key at this point. Smith is pretty much the only DE I've heard of them being interested in.

DE - Za'Darius Smith (backup options: Jadaveon Clowney, Lorenzo Carter, Rasheem Green)

WR - Allen Robinson (backup options: Juju Smith-Schuster, Jarvis Landry)

DT - Maliek Collins

Tony Pauline really doesn’t know shit.

he fits the most with Veaches patter of who he signs in FA. They are almost always Jujus age, not Robinsons of Landrys.

Me?

I’d flip a late rounder for Lael Collins
Sign Allen Robinson or Juju.
Bring back Pringle for 4m or less.
Flip another late rounder for Laviska Shenault
Sign Melvin Ingram
Sign Ndamakon Suh

I was told the cap is a myth and we can grab whoever we wanted

YES!

1. What late rounders? Are you talking 7th round picks? Because we don't have a 5th or 6th at this point.
2. That DE group is trash if it's Ingram and Clark. Yeah you can add a rookie but I highly doubt that rookie is starting day 1.
3. **** Suh.

The cap is malleable and if a team wants a guy bad enough, they'll find a way to get it done.

The problem with the cap RIGHT NOW is that you're not just sensitive to the amount, it's time-sensitive too. They have to make the dominos fall in a certain order to get it all done correctly.

If the Chiefs don’t sign an EDGE, then I fully expect either a trade for a veteran or a trade up in the draft.

No way they aren’t aggressive.

The cap is a myth for the most part. They can restructure a ton of guys and have a ton of cap space. But eventually it's going to bite you in the ass a year or two down the road.

I just have reservations for guys coming off of back injuries. I know it's not the end all be all, but recovering from a back injury is just complicated and takes time.

And if I'm putting together my offseason at this point.

1. Sign Juju Smith-Schuster to a 3 year deal.
2. Sign Arden Key to a 2-3 year deal.
3. Trade our 4th round pick to the Jags for Laviska Shenault and their 5th. (Trade down from 135 to 157)
4. Sign Kyzir White to a 3 year deal.
5. Wait for La'el Collins to be cut and then sign him.

He also said 49ers were in on Watson yesterday, about 3 minutes later several beat writers/journalists said he was wrong. Not so sure I trust this dude.

I’d rather get a 7th than outright cut Collins, if I’m Dallas.

I’d love to give Jacksonville a third for Shenault and a 5th…and I think they’d love it too.

I’m ok going into the draft with Ingram, Clark and Danna at DE. We draft 2 DEs in that world unless the value isn’t there snd we decide to make a bargain basement DE signing after the draft for a ring chaser.

I would send you nudes if this happened.

Collins will go for a lot more than 3/30 on the open market.

Well to be fair, the tweet I was responding too wasn't about a specific player or move. Just that it would be active today. I hope it's active today and I hope my favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs, are active today.

Id do a 4th or even 3rd comp pick for Lael Collins. We arent getting a top rated, proven NFL RT in the 3rd or 4th round. He could possibly be the Biggest upgrade we could do this offseason! Our Oline would be ELITE and set for years!

Id love Allen Robinson. Not crazy about JuJu but Im warming up to the idea.

Pringle, Id be ok with that.

Shenault, EH not so much.

Ingram, For sure.

Suh, no thanks. Old and expensive.

Same, my man…..same lol

Breaking: CB Jeff Gladney is signing with the #Cardinals, per sources. Gladney, 25, is a former first-round pick of the #Vikings. I’m told the Cards really like his ability to play both inside and out.

**** you Dante84

I like this but Id put more priority on La'el Collins. Like Bosschief said, he will get much more salary on the open market.

Also, I dont get the love for Shenault? What am I missing?

Way too much money on the OL at that point. If he gets cut and the Chiefs can structure a better deal, great. I wouldn't expect that though. If he gets cut teams will be clamoring to sign him. We'd get priced right out of that.

Chiefs got bigger fish to fry than a RT.

I mean if they'll take a 7th for Collins...then sure. I've got no problem with it. As long as his deal gets reworked.

Shenault is a weapon. He's a RB/WR hybrid player that I'm sure Reid would love to get into his playbook. He's buried in Jacksonville.

That sucks. I was hoping maybe?

He is very short so maybe they didnt like that.

That sucks about Glandey, but I suspect they want more size on the outside after losing Ward.

Great prospect coming out of college, will have much higher ceiling with Chiefs than what he showed in Jacksonville.

He's one of these new breed WR's with a thick lower body, strong after the catch. You could use him in coming out of the backfield, screens, intermediate routes, short routes etc.

Think poor man's Deebo Samuel, with enough youth and upside to get excited about.

I agree adding a RT isn’t a major priority, but he’s only owed 3/30 on the rest of his deal and that’s super cheap. He’s also a top 5 RT is is young. Nwosu just went for that much, for perspective. Dallas will release him if he isn’t traded for , so giving up a 7th for him to finish solidifying the OL would be nice. Especially with Niang underwhelming and better suited for swing tackle.

Chandler Jones to raiders.. jesus this division..

If you can add a guy like Juju and then Shenault to that WR group? ****.

Hill
Juju
Shenault
Hardman

That’s a lot of versatility.

Chandler Jones goes to the Raiders.

****.

3/30 is a great deal for a top RT, we are going to need more than average at RT.

We already have a gadget player (Hardman) dont see the need for Shenault.

Better get a RT now

Jones must love McDaniels.
