Was he not arrested and charged with murder exonerated in court due to inept Judge and piss-poor Prosecutor.
Later convicted of manslaughter and spent time in prison. Or did I dream all of that?

Nah...Chiefs dont have to pay him much. They hold the power to delay him to free agency until hes 32 should he not sign an extension. If Chris Jones wants to sit out two years and forfeit 50M he can do that but thats more than he would lose if he didnt sign a cheaper extension from the Chiefs.

n 2007, Simpson was arrested in Las Vegas, Nevada, and charged with armed robbery and kidnapping. In 2008, he was convicted and sentenced to 33 years' imprisonment, with a minimum of nine years without parole. He served his sentence at the Lovelock Correctional Center near Lovelock, Nevada. He got caught and didn't hire a good attorney. ![]()

RGR said on their YouTube tonight that he was told the Chiefs made an offer to Jones towards the end of OTA’s and that was the last offer.

I hope he sits out until week 8. He will never make that $ back. Dumbest agent on earth.

The last part it's impossible to argue with. I don't doubt there are good agents but if you manage to get your client less money and possibly less success whilst pi$$ing off a fan base, you really have no business in this business.

He doesn’t need to wait that long; I’m tired of checking this frustrating thread 20 times a day. Just hop on your annoying little twitter account and announce what you’re going to do already, Chris.

Everyone is saying this is the agents fault. I'm not totally sure of that. His best interest is getting himself as much money as he can for himself, just like Jones. I think this a Jones thing and not an agent thing. I certainly can be wrong however.

I really think they expected that Williams, Simmons, Lawrence and Payne would end up pushing the DT market up nearer $27 million in AAV and then he'd argue that they should split the difference between that and Donald and settle in at $29/$30 million. But when the market simply didn't do that and slotted nearer $23/24 million for similarly effective DTs this off-season, Jones and his agent simply ignored it. They're operating in a world where the DT market was re-set by the young DTs that signed this offseason and ultimately that just didn't happen. And they're refusing to acknowledge it. So maybe they weren't truly 'dishonest' - maybe they were flat-ass wrong. And that's gonna happen when you're a noob agent who doesn't have the contacts in this league to know how the market is going to settle in. Now I think the agent is guilty of failing to manage client expectations and has put himself firmly up shit's creek.

It's kinda your job to figure that shit out before we get to this point. Then when push comes to shove....why would you dig in? I just don't understand here with what the Chiefs likely want to pay to keep Jones around and with all the equity he has with the team, why he wouldn't want to take what he can and stay. |
