Holmes4six! 968 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 What are your thoughts on him not attending camp? is it more of security for possible injury as they work through the contract? I wish he was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burpo The Mad Clown 5,554 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 No big deal. I remember when Randy White and the Cowboys were negotiating. He skipped camp and went fishing. But he was there for the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gochiefsgo 380 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I heard that the last time he was up for a contract extension at 26 years old he was not signed until right before training camp began. Probably the same thing this time with him. Not worried about it at all. He’s a Chief. They’ll figure it out. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gochiefsgo 380 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 To put this in perspective, on the basis of last year’s AFC Championship Game alone, where he totally wrecked the Bengals offensive line, and ultimately had a career year in Sacks, he’s either one of two things, a Chief for life or a trade candidate worth at least a first round draft pick and a bit more which I don’t see happening. He’s still a game wrecker, he stays I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a contract would add four more years on to the last year of his rookie contract, making the extension a five-year deal in total. A $98 million contract, averaging $24.5 million per season, would make Williams the second highest paid defensive tackle in football, behind only Aaron Donald of the Los Angeles Rams and ” target=”_blank”>just ahead of Tennessee Titans’ Jeffery Simmons ($23.5 million).

dhitter 1,424 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Everything I've heard ...it's a priority for the organization to get a deal done. Wouldn't be surprised if it's right before training camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,209 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Agree with Mex and the guys on Locked On Chiefs. Jones could make millions more in guarantees if Williams signs for what is predicted. Since Clark has signed elsewhere, there's no pressure to get the deal done in time to use extra cap space this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more about a happy CJ playing like a happy CJ. Also one never knows who might become available or maybe a need after an injury/injuries. $$ in the bank is never a bad thing mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPPT1974 21 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Maybe his agent is wanting him to stay out possibly in order to say eh...'Pay Me or Trade Me!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he has monkeypox and the Chiefs are balking at paying him cause they really wanna hire your mom to play DT. Anything is possible right? I think at this point we can probably safely assume CJ meant it when he said he won't play elsewhere amd they trying to come to terms on a difficult contract.

arthur75 415 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Not sure Jones skipping the ring ceromony is a good look. That has more to do with your teammates than the team in general. Not a you put who on a beer can but its still a little shitty. oldtimer and Burpo The Mad Clown 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the urgency to get a deal in order to also bring back Clark, which seemed to be a Jones desire, is gone. Now there's no reason not to wait until after Williams signs and Jones can repeat his demand to be the second highest paid lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 He's one of the captains so skipping the ceremony is a big thing. The ceremony belongs to the whole organization so contract talks shouldn't matter at all. I don't know if there was something else though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
