I mean don't get me wrong, he showed up sometimes and played ok but when you pay a guy like we do and he doesn't speak to the media, basically the fans, and never restructures anything and just has always put off the vibe that money was waaaaaay more important than football, which is a shame.

I think in the last couple of years they were both bad for the team morale and glad they are gone.

What the **** reason would Berry or Houston have a chip on their shoulder about money?

They both got paid handsomely. There is no reason either of them had a single gripe about $$.

Berry was pretty much snuffed in his first attempt for a contract in 2016. He also saw Dorsey guys like Eric Fisher get paid but not him. I think that rubbed him the wrong way.

I agree 100% with that poster’s point. Houston and Berry both missed OTA’s in 2017. The leaders of the team shouldn’t be missing OTA’s, especially when they are getting paid a ton of money.

You could tell Andy was pissed off about it.

Sweet Dee. :-)

Texas or Carolina?

Sweetened with cane sugar or Splenda.

When we first signed this guy I was confused. I thought it was an overpay, saw he is 5'9, saw that he doesn't have a lot of interceptions and I'll be honest, I have literally watched zero tape on the guy.

Since then I have been more impressed with each passing moment. It just keeps getting better.

Also it is pretty hilarious that someone rated this signing a C+ on ESPN. This is an A signing.

ESPN also called Mahomes a C+ pick... Lol

Looks similar to Watkins contract.

27 mil gtd. Guessing next year has a big cap #

Not really excited to see what Mahomes pulls when it’s his turn. Holy shit

10 mil cap hit this year then 20 something next?

Let's try this again. Tyrann Mathieu's cap hit by year, according to these numbers. #Chiefs

2019 - $5.9M
2020 - $16.2M
2021 - $19.6Mhttps://t.co/RxhIaaBr2d
