Plus, IMO, with the combination of Karlaftis coming along good, we could maybe extend Omenihu or sign one of the DTs hitting FA this year (Wilkins or Madubuike would be nice and would be around 7M to 10M less AAV than what CJ95 was asking for I think) I think you might be able to have enough money after cutting MVS and possibly Reid (or extending Reid, they seem to like him) to do all of that and keep Sneed and Bolton (structured correctly by Burt Vatch of course). That would be a Hell of a Defense regardless of CJ95. [Reply]
Because we don't need to sign a #1 WR that has changed this whole convo. We can now focus on resigning both CJ and Sneed. And that is very doable. [Reply]

Sneed also fits into our salary structure awfully nicely.
With McDuffie you have 2 more years plus the 5th year option (which will be a pretty little penny now with the multipliers from his AP season under the new 5th year rules, but still not prohibitive). You could sign Sneed to a 4 year deal that's essentially 3 and be in a position to move on from him when McDuffie is making real money.
This is a STUPID cheap secondary. Even with Sneed, we wouldn't have spent that much money on it. And if its decided that we can't afford Sneed if we have another large contract in the secondary, then you extend Sneed and move on from Reid.
It just seems like a complete no-brainer at this point. You gotta get Sneed's deal done. I just wonder if he's not going to be someone who tests FA before he returns (or insists on 're-setting the salary scale' to sign prior to FA).
It may get a little hairy if you don't tag him. And if you tag him, the tag/trade scenario for Jones is off the table. So there's gonna be some tense moments here in the spring but I think he'll be back. [Reply]

The Jones cake was baked last offseason. Similar to the OBJ thing, I don't think we really need to worry about anything there. It's done, it's been done, it'll continue to be done. [Reply]

I love Rice as much as the next guy but our #1 priority this off-season is still a WR. [Reply]

Not even close to close.
Sneed is clearly the heart and soul of this entire defense, and they feed off his intensity. The D was still almost as good with Bolton out and Tranquill in there. I'd keep Drue on a modest deal this offseason and if Bolton walks next year, you're covered.
Absolutely under no circumstance do you let Sneed go. None. [Reply]

Chiefs have a HISTORY of letting our DB's walk [Reply]
