Hmm...

Chiefs' Jaylon Moore Signing Risks NFL Punishment


One would certainly hope the Chiefs were within the boundaries on this one. Not worth losing a draft pick over.

I mean, yeah, they were obviously communicating before the legal tampering period.

He has a bunch of cuts on his page... not all of them in one video.

Based upon the contract the Chiefs themselves aren’t 100% confident, but he’s a lottery ticket.

We took for granted what stability looked like with Orlando bc the times he was bad, he was pretty damn bad, but he was a functional LT that held his own enough to help the offense be very successful and that was enough.

If we can get that from this kid it will be a massive win. I truly hope we do.

Veach:

That is pure speculation by a blogger, no outside sources. Just a "Gee, I wonder if" deal for clicks.

The more that comes out about the contract the more it seems like a one year deal. Opening us up to dabble in next years much better free agency class.

This is so ****ing dumb. The Chiefs aren't the only team that "signed" somebody immediately after the tampering window opened up.

Indeed. You could post that exact same story on a dozen fan sites and just change the names.

Honestly if Veach somehow gets screwed/busted over this bullshit it's worth it, within reason. We could not afford the opening flurry of signings to happen and KC not walk away with a solid LT.

Who do you think actually makes it through to FA?

Ekwonu and Cross will likely have their 5th year options exercised.

That leaves potentially:
Kolton Miller, LV
Rashawn Slater, LAC
Bernhard Raimann, IND
Braxton Jones, CHI
Rasheed Walker, GB
Vederian Lowe, NE
Terron Armstead, MIA (flirting with retiring this year so might as well leave him off)

I can see a world where Miller, Slater, and Raimann all get tagged if they don't work out deals.

I don't mind Braxton Jones. Rasheed Walker and Vederian Lowe are borderline guys that you'd love to upgrade but can work with if you have to.

I don't disagree. Agents talk to GMs and players far too much this time of year. They'd really have to play some connect the dots with timing of phone calls and make assumptions. I'm not sure it'd be crystal clear.

You think LA plans to keep both alt and skater long term? I was also thinking Miller was a 16 pick not an 18 and would possibly see the market due to age. I was wrong there.

I think LA will try very hard to keep them both but even if they can't, Slater won't ever see unencumbered FA.

He'll get tagged and traded quick as a hiccup. And the market for him will be enormous.

If Slater hit FA I'd back up the Brinks truck and pay him top of market.

He's too good for them to let walk. Alt or not, they'd get a king's ransom on a tag and trade at minimum.
