Yeah, I think Jones is one of the bigger leaders in the locker room. It would be tough to lose.

Good thing we're not losing him.
It's August 4th ladies. Un-bunch your panties and enjoy life. He'll be back soon. |

He is looking to get a 50% raise on a $20MM salary. There is getting what you are worth in your mind and there is getting greedy. Take your $27MM annually and be happy playing on a perennial SB contender the rest of your career.
What's the old saying? Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered. If you really want that $30MM and end up on the Saints or some shit team to do it, well......... |

KC could have signed Jones prior to investing big bucks on Taylor. You have two FA on the oline getting top dollar. Thuney and Taylor. Its impossible to pay top dollar at more than just a few positions. Reid is another example. Big money for an above average but not great safety.
At this point KC needs to let Jones walk next year. He already screwed up this season by not signing thus KC could not ad another quality FA without the cap space needed from A jones deal. Let him walk and keep the younger guys on D. Keep Snead. |

I'm good with whatever they decide to do tbh. Brett Veach and his staff have proven time and time again that they know how to find talent. Last years Tyreek saga was the cherry on top of a phenomenal 2021 class that gave us Bolton, Creed and Trey; all top 10 at their positions.
I absolutely love Chris Jones but I can see the value of doing a Tyreek like trade to get more draft assets and free up a ton of money.

I hate letting said talent go over money when we've shown we can fill around it with the draft. But in the end, they know what they're doing. |

Nobody is doing a Tyreek trade for CJ. Few teams have the cap space to do it this year, and by next year tag and trade won't be much leverage. We might get the same compensation by letting him walk, although a year later.

The Chiefs will find it tough to tag and trade him next year, because of the tag number.
Chris has got some leverage here. |

3 years is a more likely contract with year 4 probably not happening. Thats only $4.5 million more after taxes. That $4.5 could easily be earned and more over a lifetime if he wins another ring, is a Chiefs legend forever and is in the HOF. Neil Smith will never be a Chief again...
