More details on Joe Thuney's 5-year, $80M deal with the Chiefs: Signing bonus: $17M Base salaries: $990K, $13.9M, $15M, $15.5M, $15.5M Workout bonuses totaling $2.11M
That structure keeps Thuney's 2021 cap number at just $4.5M.

Thuney is the second best lineman in FA, no? Right there with anyone behind Williams.
Thuney gives them some flex. Probably easier to get along with a rookie at LT if you have a veteran stud next to him. They also can still pursue a veteran upgrade at LT.
Shit, depending on how it's structured, they might even be able to still pursue Williams, too. [Reply]

2010 maybe?
Trade for Dillard would be great. I am curious to see what Prince Wago can do too however I get it if they don't wanna risk Pat's blind side to a 6th round pick who they grabbed off the scrap heap. [Reply]
On the lone TD drive of the game, the #Patriots had LG Joe Thuney block Aaron Donald 1v1 twice in key situations, and Thuney won both times. Thuney has tackle-like skills. Always balanced, great core strength, quick feet, knows how to use his arms/hands. Underrated player. pic.twitter.com/MQQaWpdZLj
