In order to prevent us wasting precious years of Patrick Mahomes' career, Veach needs to work some magic this offseason. What's your advice for him? [Reply]

I’m going to say this all offseason. **** Sammy Watkins. I appreciate the championship but the dude has no spot on this team.
I’m not happy with him at all either but if we’re talking strictly Watkins v. Robinson at the same price... at least I can trust Watkins to be capable of beating the man across from him IF he is ready to play in big games. I can trust him not to make boneheaded mistake after boneheaded mistake.
Among two meh options, I’ll take Watkins for his upside every time. [Reply]
Reek has 2 years left on his current deal so there may be no better time to tack on a couple more. I’d rather extend him now at 27 y/o than at 28/29. Can open up some cap space that way. [Reply]
Kansas City general manager Brett Veach said the team would "try" to re-sign unrestricted free agent Sammy Watkins.
Watkins could be a casualty of the league's decreased salary cap after he made $15.8 million in 2020, struggling through a range of injuries that cost him five games and parts of others. "Sammy is a big part of this offense and when he's healthy, we're better," Veach said. "If there's a way we can make it work again, we'll certainly try to do that." ESPN's Adam Teicher said the Chiefs re-signing Watkins this offseason would be a clear indication that the team does not see Mecole Hardman as an every-down wideout. Even if the Chiefs let Watkins walk, Hardman -- who ran costly incorrect routes at least twice in the team's Super Bowl loss -- wouldn't be guaranteed an every-down spot in the KC offense. [Reply]

Not interested. Unreliable and played 19 snaps after taking a month off in the sb [Reply]
The Chiefs have paid Sammy over $42M over the past three years. He should play for them for the next three years at league minimum or he can leave. [Reply]

To the best of my recollection he's been trying to stay healthy every since he was drafted. Me no want. [Reply]
