I love CJ and wish he would be a Chief for life, but I don't see a possibility of keeping him unless he drops his salary demands significantly. Sneed should be resigned, but if there was ever a player KC could tag/trade it is him. I guess we will see what he wants vs what Veach offers in the offseason. |

Most of them haven't been very good. We lost Ward but who else? You gonna go all the way back to Brandon Carr? Andy was Philly's coach when that all went down.
Sean Smith? We signed him as a FA -- we DO have a history of not giving guys a 3rd contract but that goes beyond DBs. We traded Peters. Nobody thought Steven Nelson was worth the deal he got from Pitt (including, ultimately, Pitt). I don't think there's a trend for what the Chiefs will do with guy like Sneed. Ultimately I think the best thing to know is that the staff seems to love him. I think they'll do everything they can to keep him.

18/20/22/24 -- so 3/$60 for all intents and purposes (signing bonus, whatever it is, gets removed from those figures). I think I would. I mean look at it this way - Christian Kirk got that deal at WR (plus an adjustment for cap increases). And by and large he's played to his contract; he's been solid for them. If you spend $20 million/yr at WR and get Christian Kirk, that's going to be seen as a win in free agency. Would I rather have Christian Kirk next year or Sneed? I mean man, that's not even a question is it? You're not getting a premier WR anymore for $20 million - you're getting a complementary guy. But if I could retain Sneed for that same money, he's just so damn critical to what we do. If the medicals check out (and my understanding is that the knees may not; there are some lingering issues there), I think I'm fine giving him that.

If you wanna keep him, that's just gonna be the # I'd imagine right? I would do it and move on.
You've got your secondary together for a few years, build up the front a bit and go from there. The WR thing.....I've kinda conceded that at this point you aren't gonna get a high end guy for less than 25. If I'm gonna spend 22 on Calvin Ridley.....I just want no part of that. |

I think the 2022 WR market was just so damn insane that it's gonna take more than one offseason for it to level off. And if Calvin Ridley is costing $22 million, then it has more cooling yet to do. I'm just fine signing Sneed and then addressing WR in the 2nd wave of FA after the stupid contracts have sorted themselves out.

For the love of God -
We do not need to break the bank on another #1. Rice IS a #1. He's a #1 RIGHT NOW. We need another guy that's a solid 2. That's it. Kelce will be here 2 more years. We resign CJ and Sneed. Also I guess no one actually looked at the difference in the run defense when Bolton went out. Good Lord. |

We've never had one anywhere near as good as Sneed, though. Not even close.
It will be very interesting. If they can get a haul tagging and trading him, I guess I could see it, but I just don't think you'd get the kind of value out of him that we did out of Hill. |

But even then.....give me a mid tier vet along the lines of Richie James or a notch better. Can I get Parris Campbell for the vet min kinda deal? Quez Watkins? Give me another early round draft pick and a mid tier vet and move along I guess. |

Probably.
But for a million bucks, is there a 500 yard season in there? Those are just the waters we're gonna have to swim in while we draft away. |

The run defense was VASTLY different with him out in several games. He legit could be a multi time pro bowler at mike and knows the defense. You can't just replace those guys that easy. Sneed CJ Bolton We really need to lock those guys down, get a #2. That's it really. |

I would keep Bolton. Dude is a really good player, but LB's that struggle in space against the pass in today's NFL aren't exactly hard to find. |
