What the hell? I thought the market was drying up for Kirk? Something about unrealistic salary demands?

I don't think the article really is much more than agent talk for KC. Arizona isn't landing him if he really wants a 3/90 type deal. The other 3 have been known quantities.

I still think, unless Minnesota gets in a bidding match with the Jets that his contract will end up around Garrapolo money. When push comes to shove the Jets and Denver both will go with the cheap top draft pick. In fact Arizona even being in the picture might even show that the agent isnt seeing the numbers he wants.

Also a throw away line in the article says KC isn't overly concerned with the way the money is structured because he's made so much the last two years would seem to be a reducing of expectations since original rumors were that the Jets were going to throw a ton up front.
