I can't believe people are even giving a second of consideration about paying big money to Julio Jones who is 32 and just put up a whopping 700 yards and 3 touchdowns

I'll hold out for Larry Fitz on the cheap instead.

Julio Jones is that type of talent. You are asking why fans are considering that type of talent to put next to Tyreek Hill and Travis freaking Kelce? Jerry Rice had two of his best years at age 32 and 33. Terrell Owens had two of his best years at age 33 and 34. Cris Carter was still tearing it up at 32, 33 and 34. The list goes on and on. |
Okay. I get it. Contract and his missed games last season are absolutely legitimate reasons to say “nah, I’m good.” But talking about him like he’s Gehrig Dieter is a little much.
Like, there’s a middle ground between not wanting to trade for him and thinking he is Jeffrey Epstein. |
Yeah, no.
Veach can open up the bank account for Orlando Brown Jr. Not brokedick Julio. The hidden stat is that he may have started a good number of games, but often didn’t finish a lot of them because he pulled up lame or was sore and took himself out. Hard pass. |

Just curious as to people’s definition of a wasted career. Do you have to win a ring for your career not to be a waste? Perspectives interest me. Kinda like Nickhead’s thread where he proclaims Kirk Cousins a bust. I don’t think Cousins is great but bust seems a bit strong. Guess it all depends on individual perspective |

And if you want to truly talk about "wasting" a career, look no further than Detroit, who couldn't win a playoff game with Barry Sanders or MegaTron. |

The Chiefs don't need Jones and I can't see any possibility of them giving up more draft picks and taking on $40 million guaranteed for a 32 year old WR who's on the downside of his career. They had the best team in the NFL last year before losing Fisher in the AFC Championship game with a broke dick Sammy Watkins, an ineffective Demarcus Robinson and a rookie running back that was unable to score at the goal line. There is absolutely no reason for them to make such an illogical move. |

Because Jones has injured his hamstring in at least 6 different seasons and has missed games in separate seasons due to toe and or foot issues 4 times. |

He's INJURED. You do know that right? |

We get a pro bowl LT that is 24-years old and has already started 42 games and they get a guy who missed on average 2 games a year and missed half of last season with a recurring hamstring injury that's plagued him his entire professional career. Just what was Veach thinking? |
Quote:
The Falcons, for all of their faults, provided Jones with a very good QB, good receivers opposite him and Tony Gonzalez for a few years. No player is guaranteed a ring. Jones has had a great career but there's no doubt that he's on the downside at age 32, which is completely and totally normal. |
Chiefs need to be a bit more scrupulous with their picks...trading a 2nd rounder for a 32 year old WR probably isnt the best strategy.
I've heard AB might be on KC's radar...and he wouldn't cost draft capital. Watkins didnt cost them picks... If he were released...go for it. |
