Probably because it's more than most of us make. [Reply]
man... I thought he'd get a really nice bump to like 7-8m AAV not 18 AAV. Holy shit. Good for him. Dude balled the fuck out this year and deserves a nice deal. [Reply]

These guys always seem to get overpaid.
I was guessing 2/$20 or 3/$36. I thought that was probably on the high side.
Wow...I knew he was gonna get paid, but didn't realize he was gonna get PAID, paid.

Good for him though. You like to see guys come out of nowhere and set themselves up for life like he just did. [Reply]
I really wish Veach could trade some of these guys in the final year of their contract and get extra draft picks. Watching them walk with no return is not so fun. [Reply]

Yep. You'd never see a great team that played in 5 of the last 6 SBs and won 3 of them making crazy moves like we just did with Moore. Guess this is why we always suck. [Reply]

they weren't going to trade him last season, we wouldn't have had anyone else. [Reply]

Well you can do that but then you look like Seattle right now where people wonder what you're doing. [Reply]

My comment wasn't limited to Wharton. In general, I think we would be well-served to trade some of the guys we know we will lose to FA.
I am glad to see we will likely get a 4th round comp pick.
Also, this is a great draft for Defensive Tackles so I'm not sure what the Panthers are thinking but the timing (losing a good DT) works well for the Chiefs. [Reply]
I absolutely love Turk. He’s smart and seems like a good person. Plays hard and overachieves. Wish we could have kept him. That being said, if we would have paid him that, I would have lost my ****. That is absolutely crazypants! Good for him, though. [Reply]
