They can't afford to tag him for 2 years.

You sure about that? This year would have been $19M. Less than they are paying him. Sure it'll be more next two years, but compared to the extension they are offering would it be so different?

Because he can always be replaced by a Reiter or something.

What are you asking? Are you asking if Chris Jones doesn't step up on 3rd and 8 in a game he played do we make it? Who knows. If he doesn't sack him, it could've been an incompletion, could've been an interception, could have been anything. Could have gone to OT. We don't know, but this whole "If Jones doesn't sack Burrow on 3rd and 8 we don't win" is pure speculation and horseshit. Burrow had already thrown multiple picks and bad incompletions.

Next years tag would be 33.5 million for him.

Guaranteed amount is really what matters. His last one was 60 mil. Donald got 46 mil. Williams got 66 mil. If reports are right Jones want's at least that much in total guarantees.

That isn't going to look nearly as good when we don't have a top 5 WR group that can get open quickly.

In hindsight, probably so.

Maybe Jones wasn't honest about what contract he would be happy with?

Other teams might not want to pay a near 30 year old DT that price plus give up draft compensation.

Correct, we don't know what could have happened had he not sacked Burrow. But what we do know is Jones sacked him and that was a critical play that helped KC to get to a SB. So yes, without speculating and throwing "what if's" in there, KC most likely does not make the SB without Jones' sack.

Okay, so his cap hit next year would be about $5M more than it already is this year. With no long-term ill effects of any kind. We really can't work around that?

I guess if you think the window is now when you still have Kelce you play Jones one more year. But you don't give Jones the third contract. Let some other team take that chance.

Of course not. The thought that KC can just replace Creed easily is silly. They could get a stud or they could get a Reiter.

Well, that would eat up about 3/4 of the cap space we're gonna have available.

Well maybe so. But it seems like there is usually some team out there desperate enough to give up picks who also has cap space.
