  1. Well, a competent secondary would be amazing. This would also let us focus on best available LT in round 1 and best WR/RT in round 2.

  2. If he’s asking for a ridiculous amount don’t do it but it’s also a huge position of need for us

  3. I’m not paying the bill or crunching the numbers, but we have plenty of cap space and a ton of dead cap coming off the books next year. Who cares if we have to pay a few more million than he’s worth, we did the same with Ridley

  4. Guessing he’s wanting 20m+ per year then. If the Colts and the Titans are the main players though it’s smart on his part to try and pit them against each other.

  5. Remember, the only thing worse than missing out on a player is overpaying, especially when picks are involved.

    Personally I’d rather have Simmons and keep all our picks but we’ll see what happens.

  6. Now this I believe… he’s probably asking for 25+ million a year, something in that range, I’d imagine, which is not only more than the most highest paid CB per year (by 4+ million) it would be tied for 4th most for a WR per year (AJB’s contract with the Eagles… or more).

    Issue is Sneed is great but I’m not sure he’s THAT good… and while we COULD pay that price I’m not sure its the correct move.

    We aren’t in win now mode. It feels like if we are paying that much for a single CB we need to be all in on going to the playoffs this year, next year, and the year after and that’s really risky when we don’t know how the draft will pan out… don’t know if our coaching will come together… don’t know if Will Levis is 100% our franchise QB for the next 4 years… don’t know how far he can take us even if he is… its just… risky for that kind of money…

    This is especially true when we are trying to shift cap/picks back over to offense as it is because we have 96 million already tied up in the defense compared to 75 on offense (Just take a look at the teams who went the furthest in the playoffs last year and you’ll see they are more heavily invested in offense than defense and some have spent less than 96 million in their defense but used more total cap space than us).

  7. Don’t sign him! He doesn’t make this team Super Bowl contenders next year. Save some money and see where we are at in 2025.

  8. I see this as a win-win. If we get him, we add a potentially top 5 CB for a 2025 Day 2 pick. If we don’t get him, we drove up the price a lot for the Colts and forced them to spend more capital to get him.

  9. At this point I don’t want him. I’d rather see what Ran can do in the draft. Hopefully we keep driving the price up on the Colts in the process and he stays in KC or they highly overpay and lose picks

  10. I’ve never understood why it makes sense to pay another team for the chance to pay a player an enormous extension. Like, double bad free agency… does anyone else get it? 

  11. I don’t even know what to think about the Sneed reports anymore, feels like nobody knows what’s actually happening

  12. Are we not going to select a CB in the 2nd round anyways? I mean, we would have them on a rookie contract, but there’s no guarantee they’re as good as Sneed is. We have the cap to pay him, why not bring him on on like a 2 year deal?

  13. A pick and a massive deal to a guy with degenerative knee problems? Let’s let the colts have this one.

    Honestly it sounds like he’s fine playing on the tag for the threepeat unless someone just offers stupid money.
