Colts need a 3 technique that can pass rush, maybe their first pick in the second, #34.

I think a relevant comparison is the tag/trade deal we made with Seattle for Frank Clark. He cost us about 240 points in draft capital, using the Rich Hill chart.
If Jones and Clark get a similar valuation, then I think you can somewhat narrow down likely trading partners. Based on need, division, draft capital, and salary cap, these teams make sense to me: Seattle: pick 27 + 2021 third Detroit: pick 32 + 67 Miami: pick 26 + 2021 third or fourth Indy: pick 34 + 75 Of course, there are so many possible scenarios it's almost pointless to speculate but I wouldn't be surprised to see any of these. Seattle makes the most sense to me, because they're the closest to contending. |

For Watkins, I just don't see a team giving up draft capital for the right to overpay Sammy for one year. The team trading for him will absorb a $14 million cap hit, which is expensive, but not insane. The question for a Sammy trade is whether or not there's a team out there that would prefer to get him on an expensive one-year deal VS getting him on a cheaper long-term deal. He's an elite WR2 with an injury history that is getting cut unless rescued by a trade. That's going to push his value down.
We're not getting anything substantial in a Sammy Watkins trade. |

1. You send Jones to the NFC, to a team not named the Seahawks, because I don't want to face him in the Super Bowl either. 2. At #35 you can get his replacement or fill in another major need. 3.AT #67 you can get another nice player whether its a WR or offensive linemen. Sign me up |

I don’t see the Lions wanting to pay money to both Jones and Trey Flowers.
Plus they’re dealing with their own contract issues with Slay. |

Interesting question.
Would you trade Chris Jones for Darius Slay? You’d have to pay Slay, who said he wants to be the highest paid CB, to a new deal. But the highest paid CB is only getting $75 million right now. No I don’t think this has a .00001% chance of happening....but it’s the offseason. |

I haven't seen anyone mention where Jones would actually sign a long term deal. He is from Mississippi. I would assume he would want another chance at a SB.

Am I the only one that thinks Jones stays here and plays on a franchise tag deal for a year? They can structure Mahomes' new contract in a cap friendly manner the first year or two and ensure that Jones at least plays on a tag number. I only say that because I don't think anyone is willing to deal us what Jones is worth, and I don't think Veach is going to allow himself to take it in the shorts with some bullshit 2 and a 5 type of offer....

If so, that’s crazy. He has a chance to set his family up for generations. He signs as soon as it makes sense, Chiefs or elsewhere. That said, he’s made it known he wants to be a Chief for life. |
