Hopefully it is the first flaw of many that finally brings down this organization. That is an entirely different defense without that guy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Clark is gone.. Yeah, he changes their defense. I'm curious to see how much the line moves when it's announced he's not playing. And this is likely his last contract. I can see him missing half the season and then becoming an UFA next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having helped that city win two Super Bowls in recent years I don't see him feeling bad about holding out, barring some change I'd expect him to follow through with what he said he'd do.

Dr.Sack Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Crazy but I actually think this could be the thread that unravels the Chiefs 23 season. More points given up, means defense spends more time on field, offense less. Chiefs O will need to score even more points with less clock, putting strain on aging TE Kelce. Mahomes can make magic happen, but he’s not a God, just a magician. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is he supposed to do that under his current contract. KC is heartless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) This article from Over The Cap sheds some light on why the Chiefs and Chris Jones are so far apart: https://overthecap.com/thoughts-on-the-chiefs-offer-to-chris-jones Essentially teams always value contracts based on new money given out above the player's current contract, not on the total value of the new contract. Under that system of valuation, what Chris Jones is asking for exceeds the value that Aaron Donald got in his most recent contract. The Chiefs don't want to pay him more than Aaron Donald so the two sides are not close right now. Either way he will have to report in week 8 to get credit for the final year of his contract so this won't completely tank their season, but if we're lucky they'll start off slower than anticipated.

I don't either. He'll get paid ~$10M by missing half the season and returning in time to accrue a season to get to UFA. The ~$10M he loses will be more than made up for many times over in his next contract with another team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCofNC Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 The Bills don’t have anyone of value under contract at DT next year, I’ll send the Chiefs our 1 and their choice of S for him, right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if he finally reports then he will be plenty fresh and rested for the playoff run and beyond. 8 weeks of bumps, bruises and exhaustion taken away and fresh as a daisy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benderbender Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 It's sad that Diggs wants out of Buffalo so bad that it's making Chris Jones hold out. When will his Diva-dom ever end?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for the weeks he is gone that does damage to the rest of the roster. See 22 Bills after Von went down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
