Falcons taking calls on Julio Jones

Quote:
A hamstring injury limited Jones to just nine games last season, though he still put up strong numbers when he was on the field. He caught 51 passes for 771 yards and three scores as the Falcons finished the year 4-12. From 2014-19, Jones missed only four games and averaged 104 catches and 1,564 yards per season. SI Link.







From Peter King:
Quote:
Surprises? Keep an eye on Atlanta. I can’t predict any bombshells. But a few things would not surprise me. Most notably, the Falcons putting the framework of a trade together for star wideout Julio Jones, and making the trade effective June 2. That way, Atlanta could split Jones’ cap charge between 2021 and 2022 instead of getting bashed with it all this year. So if such a trade happens, I expect it could involve a future pick or picks, nothing this year. (A future second-round pick as compensation seems fair to me.) Because such a trade wouldn’t be official till June, no picks in this draft could be involved. As for the interested team or teams, I would guess Las Vegas; Jon Gruden couldn’t resist Antonio Brown, and I doubt he could resist Julio Jones. New England too, and a couple of teams with clear receiver needs—Tennessee and Baltimore.

Now, the Falcons don’t really want to trade Julio Jones. He’s a franchise legend. But he’s 32, entering his 11th season, coming off a banged-up year with seven games missed due to injury, and the Falcons are in cap jail. If they could off-load his money and cushion it by splitting it between this year ($7.75 million) and next ($15.5 million), Atlanta’s cap charge on Jones this year goes down by a tad more than $15 million.

One final note here, to be very clear: I am not reporting the Falcons will trade Jones, or will probably trade Jones. I am saying it would not surprise me if it happened.

Which makes it better odds to get another SB win?

Mahomes to Julio would be like Montana to Rice.

On paper, it'd be the best offense ever. Mahomes, Jones, Hill, Kelce all likely future HOFers behind a top 5 offensive line in the league with freaking Andy Reid dialing up plays. Hardmans 4.3 speed as a weapon an afterthought.

What would it cost us in trade value?

If Julio would agree to offset most of his cap hit to 2022 it would absolutely work.

Salary cap set to explode in 2022 and they have an out in Frank Clarks contract after 2021. Likewise with Hitchens. Veach could make it work if he wanted to.

Since they're sticking with Ryan though, I'm not sure Atlanta goes through with it.
Make the Falcons eat some of it.

Still don't want him on that salary. If he were to take a massive paycut then maybe.

We're in a great spot to do it. What are our glaring weaknesses? Defensively we could use an edge rusher, but its a pretty good defense.

The offensive line is solidified, RB depth is great and Julio is still really ****ing good.

Just do it.

After a career of having his talent wasted, maybe he'd be willing to do that for a ring......
