Sounds like Steeler's head coach Mike Tomlin was right.

Mike Tomlin is preparing for Nick Bosa to play; speaks highly of Christian McCaffrey

The Steelers head coach shared his thoughts about Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey, and how his team was in a similar contract situation a couple of years ago leading up to the regular season with T.J. Watt.

"Yes, we are preparing for Bosa," Tomlin said Tuesday. "It's prudent for us to assume that he is gonna be there and prepare in that vein, as opposed to be surprised. We were in a similar circumstance with a dynamic rusher a couple of years ago in T.J. We got a deal done at the 11th hour. He showed up in the stadium, and he was T.J. Watt that day. So that's what those guys do. They show up, and they are who they are."

Market

The only question is if my Vikes top that next year at this time with Jefferson's contract.

smart move by the niners to get him in before going to pittsburg.

Deal or no deal, you prepare like you're going up against the best of the best.

No doubt.

$34m AAV.

#2 is TJ Watt at $28m AAV

Nick Bosa is probably the only defensive player in the NFL id want this big of a contract for. In that regards, its probably a bit like the Chiefs locking up Mahomes. Its a lot of money but you have the top guy.

Im looking at Brock Purdy's contract. Does he even have enough money to live in San Francisco?

Means KC can forget about the $28 million they wanted Chris Jones to take

Think we all knew this was coming. No way the 9ers were going to let him walk or trade him.

Bosa is only 25 and arguably the best defensive player in the league. It'll be even more disgusting with Hargrave in there and Armstead being healthy... didn't even realize they grabbed Clelin Ferrell who was a top 5 pick (prob. should've only been a top 10, but still talented).

Their front 7 is going to be disgusting. I don't see any team in the NFC West standing a chance... Seattle MAYBE because they have so many weapons but it all depends how much their two OTs developed over the offseason.

Jones is great, but he's also approaching 30. Yes like Bosa he transforms the defense but there's an age thing to also be concerned about. Bosa is only 25 - he may not even have hit his ceiling yet. Jones likely has and with age brings higher risk of injury/lack of motivation, etc.... and sorry - we'd all take Aaron Donald, TJ Watt, or Bosa over Jones in a landslide.

Except I don't think Jones will see it that way lol. I think at 30, he knows this will be his last big bite at the apple. And I think he believes, and rightfully so IMO, no Chris Jones no Super Bowl for the Chiefs. I don't think he's taking $28 million per. But we'll see

Oh agreed, entirely with everything you wrote. My point was I don't think (and wtf do I know lol) he's worth the money Nick Bosa got. Same ballpark, but not the same (like I think the Chiefs offer is very fair - but agree with you I don't think Jones will see it that way lol).

Chiefs do have the leverage but at the end of the day I dont really think its the end of the world if the Chiefs have to overpay Chris Jones for a year or two. As you say, this is his last payday outside of 1 year deals.

Just means we have to eat Arby's and outscore teams with Mahomes and the power of friendship.

The Donald extension was 3 years $95M so that $31.66 AAV was the price to beat previously. And you had Hill at $30M AAV too above Watt.

 

[PolarVortex]

And we, the fans, will ultimately pay for it. Thanks, Nick.

Ummm....LOL

Yes.
He has more than enough to live here in SF, whether buying, leasing or renting.
That said...he can also live anywhere in the east bay, the south bay/silicon valley (which is closer to Santa Clara)...or somewhere on the peninsula as well...or heck even up in Marin or Sonoma county too for that matter.
