Mr Ev 332 Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 28 minutes ago, Fmbl2187 said: As i posted before, I was worried about his health when I saw him breathing so hard after coming off the field and sitting on the bench. The camera always showed him. HIs respirations were really labored even with his oxygen mask on. It may be nothing, but I really wondered about it. Now I wonder if it has anything to do with this drama. I hope not. He is a great player and should be for some other team. I'll be pulling for him. But of course, the best outcome would be that he still gets a new contract with the Chiefs and is physically ok. If he doesn't play and does not get a new deal with somebody, then there is something else going on here. Perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fmbl2187 2,279 Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 To play for Reid and the Kingdom is worth some $$'s. But we've always known that. The money is made up for in endorsements. KC Warpaint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their offer of 24.7 per is not 2nd highest AAV. Give him 26 to 27 per year with good guarantees and we are set for 3 more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either of those sounds like a win win. If the 3 year deal tears up this last year then the Chiefs should do that in a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s gone, he knows he going to be traded, and is lashing out. “KC I LOVE YOU”…if you pay me. I doubted Veach at the beginning but I’m glad he’s trading his ass. We don’t need a liability on this team playing with a selfish attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kccrow 529 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 24.7 puts him behind Donald, Watt, Bosa and Garrett. If Veach comes up to 27 per, at least that would put him only behind Donald and Watt. Based on the 84.5 number, he wants to be over Watt too. Honestly, I don't think he deserves to be over Watt. I really don't know that he deserves to be over Garrett. Veach seems to be at that agreement based on numbers. The only issue is I think he's as impactful as Bosa, and he's at 27. I dunno, I'd make a final offer of 82/3 but that's my opinion. It hurts a bit but Jones is a pretty important piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the DT position that pay would only he behind Donald. He won't get DE money etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't get DE money etc. Yes, but those are also the highest-paid defenders in the league and he wants a lot of money because he's a premier pass rusher regardless of position. He's head and shoulders above any DT not named Donald but when it comes to all pass rushers he just doesn't and won't get the numbers those guys get in tackles, total pressures, and, normally, sacks. So there has to be a little give and take there and Jones doesn't seem to be giving much. He shouldn't get Watt/Garrett money because he can't consistently produce like they can but he also deserves a chunk more over all the other DTs behind Donald. Where is that line? Veach is smack dab on the correct line, in my opinion, sitting right between Garrett and Quinnen Williams. Jones is pushing too high, but I'd probably give in to a certain extent because replacing what he does for this team is going to be difficult and Veach absolutely has not adequately planned for life without Jones. Veach has a very difficult decision to make that could very well severely impact this season and in the NFL you live in the now more than you do the future. This team, with Jones, can win another Super Bowl. Without him I think this defense, especially the pass rush, is going to be questionable for at least half the season, and how many games does that cost KC? I dunno... if I'm Veach and I'm at my limit then make the trade now, gain some resources, and start bringing in more bodies that can help you right now instead of dragging a futile effort out further. Or swap Miami Jones for Wilkins + picks :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
