They should digitally edit out all the chief wahoos from Major league like the guns from ET or smoking from a bunch of scenes for tv cuts of movies. Or don't, but it'd be funny.

Gotta wait on the details but...well probably  Chris Jones as a Chief. Also what are we guessing for his yearly average before it gets reported?

This is obviously a big commitment for the Chiefs, but I kinda wonder why Mahomes would sign this. I'm guessing it looks like a bargain for the Chiefs by years 5 or 6. It takes away a lot of his leverage.

It would be a stupid move on Mahomes’ agent part if that deal isn’t worth 450-500 million

There is no way it's for 10 guaranteed years.

I thought every league except baseball limited contracts to less than that IIRC, football has zero limits on contracts after the rookie deal. 10-year contracts have occurred before, I think Brett Favre’s last one in Green Bay was such, they’re just stupid rare.

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:Bad timing for that provision rn Maybe, but given how much of the nuclear option that clause has been in these negotiations, maybe those near-term storm clouds were what allowed him to get the provision on the table. The team thinks, hey, we could get a bargain for 1-2 years, while Mahomes is thinking about the long term cap trend. pmchem posted:you uh, sure about that? He'll still have leverage of course, but refusing to play with 4 years remaining on a deal is a rather different interaction than planning for free agency in a year. It's a worse look for other interested teams, that's for sure.

I'll be surprised if it's not a mostly frontloaded contract with an opt out for Mahomes after like 6 years.

Yeah it makes no sense for Mahomes to commit for that long.

Wow https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1280216939877580800?s=19 12 years ago I was studying for the LSAT and refreshing Obama/McCain polls every day. I didn't even know the name Lehman Brothers yet.

The actual contract will likely only matter for 4-5 years where it'll be renegotiated. The initial number will be fun and big and ultimately meaningless.
