So I would not be surprised if they draft that Killebrew kid with one of the early 4th's today as his replacement.

We don't know what Berry is asking for, so unless he doesn't get resigned, I'm expecting a deal very similar to Earl Thomas' deal.
hopefully, he isn't having his agent demand the sun, moon and stars and just wants to be the highest paid safety in the game (that he deserves) and not wanting one of these "transcendent" type deals...like 12m per.
KC paid him every penny last year when they didn't need to pay him at all while he was fighting cancer...they also showed all kinds of other support for the guy during his hard time.
Houston flew to see Berry EVERY MONDAY.
The guy isn't going anywhere, the two sides just need to work out the details so both sides get what they want.
