I haven't started a thread in many years, but I was thinking this morning (after searching to find one of these type of threads on here) about the Chris Jones scenario. And it would seem to me based on what we know about Veach and Reid, that we shouldn't be concerned.
The ability this team now has to find and develop talent is OTHERWORLDLY.
Chris Jones is an AMAZING talent, but what's the difference between $25m and $30m at the end of the day? Not THAT much. He's set. Jones is just pissed off that the Chiefs didn't sign Frank Clark, so he's being a bitch about it.
But Brett Veach ALWAYS finds a great talent to replace whoever is in there.
He found Patrick Mahomes II and begged the Chiefs to draft him.
The way he assembles teams is something we've never seen in KC and maybe never before seen even in the NFL. And he was born in 1977, IIRC.
So, In Veach I Trust. He will be a pro football Hall of Famer, IMO.
What are some of your favorite things that Veach has done that you'd like to thank him about?

When he didn’t make a trade at the deadline, I was concerned.
He made me very happy today. He’s a nice man and he’s got a killer part in his hair, I guarantee he uses American Crew brand pomade for that sharp hold and shine!

If anyone ever says "Lord please just let me get X and I will never complain again", I will call them a liar—and I will use the fact that Chiefs fans still complain about Burnt Vonch after winning wandering in the desert for 50 years then winning 3 out of the last 5 Super Bowls as an example.

With Brut aftershave to finish off that clean cut look. In fact, the cologne, spelled backwards, was named after him.
