It's literally the exact same thing that happened to the Patriots. They watched guys like Ty Law, Lawyer Milloy and Richard Seymour (just to name a few) price their way out of town and they just kept winning because they had Brady and Belichick. This is who we are now, and it's part of the reason so many people said maintaining a dynasty would be next to impossible. Everyone wants to be a star, everyone wants to get paid.
It was probably short sighted to think guys like Hill and Jones would just keep taking team friendly deals to stick around. Not everyone is in this league for the glory of greatness like Pat, Andy and Kelce. Jones won it all twice now and now he wants his money and stardom. We'll move on and keep winning and guys like him and Hill will rot away with shitbag franchises in their twilight years just like the guys I mentioned above. I'm already over him and look forward to getting some picks for him.

What KC was rumored to be offering him wasn't team friendly, nor was what they were going to offer Hill. They were both top of the market contracts. With Hill, the WR exploded before he signed and he priced himself out of KC. Jones wants money closer to Donald which is too much.
KC is willing to pay their stars good contracts, they just won't overpay for them.
