If Donald was your benchmark, there was no reason at all to act like you wanted to get a deal done but wanted the market to set first. Donald's deal wasn't getting passed up. This is some bad faith shit from Jones and his agents at this point, IMO. Play nice through the draft/FA period then when you have as much leverage as possible, hold out. This is awfully poor form, IMO.

He basically sees this as his last chance to get paid, no other team is going to give him a Donald deal so hey "the chiefs need me to go back to back lets try to bend them over" |

Anything else actually hurts Jones value going forward, oh and he has to be every bit as good as he was last year or there will be questions that cost him money. |

Along with Jones channeling some serious Eric Berry hobo spirit.

Yeah it's a shame. The only dude we go bananas for should be Mahomes.
I do think it's telling that Veach hasn't pulled the offer the way he did with Tyreek, but that was the week before the draft and this is... the week or two before the season. Very curious to see how this shakes out. I got a little nervous when he didn't show up for the ring ceremony. I mean, he could show up in week 8 and "pull a hamstring" and get paid while not risking injury like Earl Thomas did.

If he misses real games, or reports late and is out of shape and has a bad year he's not going to get a top 5 DT deal... I get the holdout to try to avoid the tag after the year or see if the Chiefs will pay you but missing real games is where Jones hurts himself. |

Seems like no one is budging. The longer this goes on, the more likely it is that the Chiefs cut bait. Seems like CJ went full Eric Berry/Justin Houston. Ugh.
Hope they find a way to make it work. If not, looks like there could be some decent d-lineman becoming available as cuts are made. I’m sure that’s in BV’s contingency plan. Next couple of weeks could be very lively.

It's "trade tyreek and win a SB" brain rot to think they don't need Jones here this season. |
