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.

Wonder if teams could pull off an nba style trade where they draft a player the other team wants and then make the trade after.

Bring him 2 kc!!!

Honestly, I'd be willing 2 pay quite a bit.

2nd + Hardman for sure, what else?

Orlando Brown + Julio Jones is the best potential offseason I can imagine lol

Wait until they cut him.

Then if you want to bring him in do it.

I'm sure as hell not trading them Hardman. I know he has not lived up to the CP expectations, but I'm not ready to give up on the kid, and he has two more years on that rookie contract.

Hardman vs Jones, Jordan vs Lebron, Ali vs Frazier, debates that will live on for the ages.

Hardman?! Oh hell they can have Hardman! I'd much rather that than a second round pick. (Would be okay with either, though.)

He's 32 and is always injured.

We just got rid of a WR just like that. No thanks.

Actually, he made one of the best catches I've ever seen in that SB, too. Shame it didn't end up mattering in the end.

For clarification, he means:

Mecole Hardman vs Julio Jones

Michael B Jordan vs LeBron James

Tatyana Ali vs Joe Frazier

The extension and toe tap on that catch was a thing of beauty. Only a handful of players in league history make that play.

That catch should have been the end of it.

So happy Shanny Jr. learned absolutely nothing from that game.

Obviously, this probably isn't happening . . . . . . . but for shits and giggles, could you imagine the amount of people that would completely lose their shit if the Chiefs actually managed to trade for Julio??

It would be a mind**** and glorious to watch the fallout from.

I actually agree with him.

I'd rather have a guy that can suit up than one that can't, regardless of talent level.

Hell no i wouldn't trade them Hardman either.

And why in the world would anyone give up on him? What is there to even give up on? A good player that's lightning fast, an absolute weapon as your 4th-5th option?

Hardman can be aloof at times and hasn't quite gotten the chemistry with Pat down yet, but the skills are all there.
