You're not getting me at all.

I never said it won't get done. It will absolutely get done eventually.

But to trade for Jones, it has to be done SOON. It isn't happening soon. So it's not an option when it comes to freeing up space for Jones.

Negotiations are ongoing. Reportedly the two sides are "far apart" on terms.

So again, how are you going to get Julio Jones when you don't have the cap space?

I think he's saying negotiations are over for this year.

Wylie

PFT is reporting that the Falcons were offered a 2nd prior to the draft but held out for a 1st. Now they can't find a team willing to give them a 2nd.

Exactly.

Nothing is imminent. To trade for Jones, you need to do something now. Matthieu's extension isn't happening now, so it's not an option when it comes to freeing up space.

Saves you a tad over $2M.

About $7M more to go.

So you'd replace our $15 mil. and now injury prone #1 with another $15 mil. injury prone (and aging) #1.

Seems like a good plan. What could go wrong.

I know, but at least we're free from Wylie.

LOL

I get it.

But it's going to take considerably more than discarding our unwanted trash to get Jones. You gotta pay to play.

ATL is in cap hell from what I have read. So most teams are going to wait to see if they just cut him.

But we already know Veach doesn't think that way.

DeSean Jackson
Jeremy Maclin
Brian Westbrook
LeSean McCoy
Travis Kelce
Kareem Hunt
Tyreek Hill
Mecole Hardman
Clyde Edwards-Helaire

As long as Andy is here I will not worry about weapons.

Then again JakeF thinks Andy is a failure who couldn’t coach a team if his son’s life depended on it.

It’s best to put that dumbass on ignore

And the Chris Jones contract looked like it wouldn't get done even the day before it actually got done. If the Veach really wants Julio and they have a trade structure agreed to, he'll figure out how to make the Mathieu extension work. He'll give in a little to some of Mathieus demands and play less hardball to get it done.

I'm not convinced the Chiefs want to extend him.
