Well, I don't necessarily doubt Kelce is a useful player per se at that age given his athleticism, but I am not sure he'll be worth the contract though a new TV deal might change the physics a bit. Has a very good chance to be one of the most accomplished TE's to ever play the game as of today.

Hefty price for a great player.

Will he last the 4 years? No one knows.

Going to be interesting to see what happens to the Chiefs next year with rumors about the cap dropping substantially.

If college FB does completely cancel, I do think the NFL broadcasts games on Saturday, maybe even Friday, and that revenue will more than what they lose at the gates.

Hell, I'd bet the cap jumps off of the chart for 2021 if the play on Saturday, then the 2022 cap could get very interesting.

Big 12 is playing and SEC probably will too. I’m sure they’re other conferences as well

Good point. I was just going by what the pundints have been saying.

I don't like the contract extension. Kittle only has 2.5 years of usage. Kelce has 6 years of usage and 8 by the time the extension kicks in. You don't pay them close to the same at that position.

History might say I'm wrong, though. Elite TEs do last that long in the modern NFL. Tony G, Witten, and Antonio Gates were all guys who played to an older age.

Veach has proven to be a good drafter. I feel like he has given out too many big contracts.

I'm not a lawyer, but since the law protects TV time for College and High School football, as long as there are no college games on why would they need permission. They wouldn't be violating any college air time, if there are no college games. Most likely the NFL is waiting on final words from the ACC, Big 12 and SEC.

If even one conference decides to play an all conference schedule the Saturday idea for the NFL is off the table.

The NFL salary cap is fast becoming a myth...

I'll be curious to see the starting point when Ertz is due for his.

good extension. carries him until he's 36 and typically TE's can remain productive in their mid 30's.
