The point doesn't stand at all. Next year is still an open superbowl window with Mahomes on low cap space. 2021 starts the years where Mahomes salary really affects the team.

Why the hell would you ignore that difference?

The dog has a name, put some respek on it.

I think the point he was trying to make was that we will probably extend him after this season, even with 2 more years of control, in an effort to both keep him happy by paying him his actual value, while also setting his salary in stone before lesser QBs drive up the market...

I could be wrong though

Yeah I would think that 2020 can be Mahomes’ 4th year salary + his signing bonus proration. Should be pretty low relatively speaking.

Then 2021 could be his 5th year + signing bonus proration.

Let’s go get Ramsey!!

Seems Ramsey may have changed his mind, I wouldnt hold my breath on this

My post is in response to those who think we can keep Jones, get Ramsey and pay Pat. Of course there won’t be an issue in the short term.

The point is that it will be very difficult to have that work out once all these guys start making big money at the same time.

I’ve had a lot of people lie to me in my life: my parents (about loving me), my friends (about liking me), my wife (about our son being mine), etc.

But I have never had a Twitter dog lie to me. I feel so betrayed.

Signing bonus proration doesn’t kick in till the following year. Not year 1.

Mahomes cap hit for next year won’t change, unless he demands it to be a new deal and not an extension.

Which I highly doubt the kid does.
[Reply]

Not unless he demands his current deal be ripped up and a whole new deal signed instead of just an extension. I’m expecting it to be an extension to his current deal with a big huge signing bonus that will spread, but keep his 2020 cap hit the same.
Short term extensions and the new CBA will solve all of those concerns.

And by the time it does start to get tough potentially, guys like Mathieu and Clark could be gone. That’s a lot of money that could come open.

Ramsey is 24 & is rated by many as the best CB in the NFL. A 4 year deal would be perfect. 4/60 would be ideal.

The prime positions on a football team are:

QB - Chiefs have the best.
LT - Pro Bowl-level
DL - Jones & Clark are Pro Bowl- level
CB - A huge Chiefs need...Ramsey would put the Chiefs among the best.

Is he worth a 1st & a 3rd? My vote is yes.

Would you do:

2020 1st round pick
2021 2nd round pick
Reggie Ragland

I wouldn’t even have to think about it. Do that trade all day.

No way he agrees to 4 years at $60 million. He will want more.
