KC Warpaint 3,234 Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 it would be in the teams best interests moving forward to pay him, if they try to go cheap then the message they are sending to all agents, Free agents etc is loud and clear. KC will never attract any decent free agents (The Royals are a fine example of this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,686 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 it would be in the teams best interests moving forward to pay him, if they try to go cheap then the message they are sending to all agents, Free agents etc is loud and clear. KC will never attract any decent free agents (The Royals are a fine example of this) there is a wide line behind BEING ABLE TO AFFORD and Affording. When Baseball gets a salary cap and level's the playing field your statement might have some viability. Regardless their p[performance last year shows that high $$ FA's aint everything but they certainly can be the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eraser 722 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Offer him a reasonable contract (somewhere between $85 and $100 M). JJ Watt's contract should be the ceiling. If Houston wants to be on this team, and I think he does, then he will come to an agreement. The Chiefs should ask current players to restructure in order to pay for his contract. If they don't, start cutting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhitter 1,424 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 The only way a deal doesn't get done is if Houston's agent prices him above what the Chiefs are willing to pay. I think KC offers him a truckload of money but the truck might not be big enough. Very few top end players leave unless they are looking at breaking the bank and the team just can't do it. That's why contract talks happen. Side A has a $ number and Side B has a $ number. Most of the time a deal is done somewhere between those two numbers. I expect that to be the case with Houston. I won't be worried about a deal not getting done until much later than today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
