I totally agree with this take. As much as I like Chris Jones if he wants 30 he's going to have to go. We should get a big year out of him as well.

If he and his agent will clear getting to a 30M AAV on a deal that is really 4/104-112 from 2023-26, but has a balloon at the end that makes it 5/150, I think the Chiefs can and will do that. And it likely all works out. Even the Quinnen Williams deal does that (new year 4 is 30.4M cap hit, other 3 new years average about 23M), and that's pretty standard for contracts and accepted. Unless you're Orlando Brown, Jr. and his agent (then it's shocking and brand new information). $30M signing bonus: 23: 21M cap hit 24: 28M cap hit 25: 28M cap hit 26: 32M cap hit 27: 41M cap hit This gets you to roughly a deal that is, on paper 5/$146.5M. Which is close enough for argument's sake. Years 1-4 are 4/109, or 27.25M/year in money. You can play with the guarantees to make Year 4 a tough cut if he wants more protection, or add a little more onto the 23 cap hit (which currently is set to save them exactly what he wants saved). If he's willing to play ball on Year 5, you could maybe have the actual contract be more like 4/104M in real money. Maybe add a guaranteed salary to year 5 as well that makes the obvious cut point more painful in terms of dead cap (another $5M guaranteed would make that $10M but put the money in his pocket, shift some of the 23-26 money later, and also give him a better negotiation point to negotiate and stick around at that point if that's what he wants). There are a lot of options here.

That would totally erase his ability to get that big contract he wants. That makes no sense.

Not if he's playing for a new deal. If he's trying to incentivize a team to come get him and give him a huge bag, he has to play at that level.

Half of this thread who thinks Chris Jones leaving will essentially destroy this team/defense:
The other half who have every confidence in Veach to make it work if we move on from Jones and don't overpay: Regardless of what happens, Veach has a plan, and I'm confident this team will compete effectively with or without Chris Jones on our DLine. |

What shit effort? Dude signed a huge contract and totally transformed his diet and conditioning. I never really got people questioning his effort. Yeah a massive DT who constantly gets doubled is gonna get tired from time to time.

I have to agree with you here. I don't think Jones will give less effort. He's too passionate of a player.

Didn't think Badger would make business decisions but he did. Jones will probably as well if he doesn't get his crazy money and he isn't getting it from us. He has no locked up money for next year right now and that most definitely will affect his play.

If he doesn't agree to a deal in the next few weeks then why keep him? Would you give a long term deal to a 30 year old DL?
Donald himself saw signs of decline at 31 last year and $30 million APY would have to be a 5 or so year deal to spread out that money. Feels like if we don't get this done now, he'll be tagged and traded next year.

There's a rather large difference between being an undersized defensive back who has succeeded via max effort and intelligence and being a DT who is bigger and stronger than literally any single person who lines up across from him.

I don't think they'll tag him and expect him to play on the tag, though. If they tag him, it would be because they know they can move him to a team with cap space, looking to go over the top in 2024.
