He's clearly following this year's script, just imagine his surprise when he found out he wouldn't be starting the season.

Yep. At least that much. I have a weird feeling he's gonna turn down a truly great offer and end up taking a lesser deal in a year from another team just to spite KC. The mental gymnastics these guys have to go through. Sometimes these guys just WANT to feel slighted. Maybe it's what they need to keep their motivation high after accomplishing so much already. **** if I know.

I would say it's the other way around. CJ's effectively kicking the Chiefs to the curb if that indeed happens. (ending up with a rival)

At this point, zero shits given. He's basically turned into turncoat Neil Smith 2.0 at this point. Up until the latest turn of events, he was one of my favorites players. ![]()

Tag and trade if he has another good year. Even if it could take you out of the first wave of FA as a worst case scenario, the draft picks would make up for it

Let me add, I think he's a moron at this point. Everyday that this thing goes on beyond yesterday, he's looking like a bigger fool, IMO.

Because if he's really going to sit out, he's not gonna earn this money back. He'll end up upside down on the balance sheet when its all said and done. He's just weirdly pissed off for some reason. I don't get it.

The Brown Jr. contract was an example of KC offering him a good contract and him rejecting it because he wanted to reset the LT market. KC let him walk and he found out very quickly that what he thought he was worth vs what the league thought was significantly different. With Jones, KC has made him a good offer from all reports. He rejected that because he's looking at $30 million a year as a 29 year old DT. That's too much and this team can't afford to take on $30 million a year contracts for any non QB position. KC hasn't lost any of these disputes. They just refuse to hamstring the team by paying players what they think they are worth. I would bet right now that there is no contender out there that will pay Jones $30 million a year right now. This reminds me of the Deshaun Watson/Lamar Jackson situation. One team and GM makes a poor decision on a contract and suddenly players expect that to become the norm. Other GMs disagree and continue to make those horrid contracts the outliers, not the standard. Once a player realizes it and budges on their demands then there is progress. Lamar realized he wasn't getting what he wanted and ended up with a very good contract. Jones will end up the same way once he's willing to budge. |

Next year our cap situation is pretty nice (I think). Somewhere in the $50 mil range assuming a MVS cut and a CJ95 $20 mil franchise tag. We would easily be able to sign someone in the 1st wave of FA while holding CJ to his tag while we look for a trade
