I don't think you can keep Thuney without extending him, pay Creed, Smith, and Taylor what they demand, and really feel like you did enough to have a different outcome.

For example, I think Veach would feel better with a line that had Jackson (FA), Thuney, Creed, Kingsley/Morris, and Taylor doing into next season, than Ginat ? at LT. They have to address the LT situation, there is no way around it.

So the Chiefs tied up 23 million dollars of cap space to try to get a 3rd round pick and probably lose the rest of their FA's?

Yea don't buy that.
