Also, has anybody else seen these QB deals going out lately?

Are we gonna have to retool Mahomes contract to keep pace? Or is he still cool? Even i think he deserves than that trash Deshaun Watson…

Id like to think Patty wants to keep it team friendly but he might see some bumps from the team later on.

A special teams guy

Elijah Lee announced on Twitter that he’ll be joining Kansas City for 2022. Per Herbie Teope of the Kansas City Star, Lee has agreed to a one-year contract.

 

Lee was a special teams ace for Cleveland in 2021, playing 79 percent of the team’s snaps on the unit — by far the most on the Browns’ roster. He was also on the field for 73 defensive snaps. Lee totaled 15 tacklers last season.

 

Lee entered the league as a Vikings seventh-round pick in 2017, but didn’t make the team’s 53-man roster. The 49ers signed him off of Minnesota’s practice squad in September 2017 and he appeared in 38 games with six starts for San Francisco through the 2019 season.

 

Lee signed with the Lions as a free agent in 2020 but was waived in October. Cleveland claimed him off waivers and re-signed him following the season.

Seems pretty far apart but maybe. 

im thinking Hill extension, but this deal gets us under the cap now

Yeah probably just wishful thinking. Although I figured the Hill extension would actually save us money this..? Idk I don't ever think I'll understand the cap and the reasoning 😅

I pretty much just wait for KC GUY to explain ask things cap related, then say oh, ok…then go on not really understanding but thinking maybe I’m closer.

I wonder why we opened up the cash... I wonder if (big IF) we get Honey Badger back?

I saw an article about this, would be an awesome three man rotation.  Think about that versus the Dirty Dan bring our 3 from last year.

Could be making space for IF a move comes up, a player they want to add becomes available etc.  Ty’s deal was spared to add Cap room but the receiver deals of this off season, maybe that’s not the way it works any more.

Depends.  The Thuney restructure was likely coming regardless.  Odd that the Hill extension seemed so close and than silence.   Thinking a couple of the WR deals might have thrown an almost done deal back to square one.

We needed cap and Thuney probably turned into the quickest way to get it.  Could be a signing coming, but also could just be that Hill’s extension turned out not to be so easy.

Bring on the fringe roster type guys! 

SIGNED: The #Chiefs are signing LB Elijah Lee to a one-year deal, per Herbie Teope.

I've been saying that the ST have been gutted. Is E Lee the new Do'D?  From the look of things he plays dime LB, Neimann's position.  

In other news, we signed another FA WR. This one is 2016 first round pick Corey Coleman. He has not played since 2018.

I remember this guy from college. He just missed playing with RG III. If I recall correctly, he might be our next return specialist. Back then he was very fast and still is rather small.
