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.

I wouldn't want Julio on this team even if he played for free. Why waste a roster spot on someone that knocks himself out of multiple games by running fast

All of the WR's on the Chiefs roster currently are ages 28 and under.

If anything the Chiefs need to add a veteran/experienced WR because after Tyreek that "experienced" designation falls on the likes of Mecole Hardman, Demarcus Robinson and Byron Pringle.

Hard pass.

Rather find a WR in the draft since it's more cheap cost controlled.

Also - Julio, OBJ & Landry? And Njoku and Chubb and Hunt?

They might be a little top-heavy.

You realize their QB can't throw a forward pass, right?

Hope they do.

Julio is on the decline. Let them spend those picks they got from us.

Please tell us that Tom Brady won't die from a gaping flesh wound that he refused to get looked at by an actual doctor because he used his stupid TB12 Method magnetic healing power crystals instead

Looks like the extension could create $10M in cap space for 2021, + the current cap space of $9,894,349, - Rookie pool requirement of $5,705,097 = $14,189,252

So no, just HB's extension alone would not get it done. There would have to be other adjustments made elsewhere prior to it becoming official on 6/2/2021. Kelce and Jones restructures would be candidates.
The rookie pool is down to 4.9 mil now because of the downgrade from 1st to 2nd and the trade of two others.

Mahomes to Jones would be a sight to see. If he has any tread left, KC will be in on him.
