Looks like the extension could create $10M in cap space for 2021, + the current cap space of $9,894,349, - Rookie pool requirement of $5,705,097 = $14,189,252

So no, just HB's extension alone would not get it done. There would have to be other adjustments made elsewhere prior to it becoming official on 6/2/2021. Kelce and Jones restructures would be candidates.
Julio Jones would have to agree to restructure and take SIGNIFICANTLY less money to make it happen.

How badly does he want a ring?

Is he looking for one last big payday? Or does he want to cement that HOF career with a SB to make the case of him being one of best all time at his position?
