For the record I have stated I think the Falcons end up getting more than anticipated and speculated currently. We will find out soon. |

Instead of taking the 1 year $15M cap hit, your plan is to trade away 2nd and 3rd round picks for a 32-year old WR with an injury history and actually make him MORE expensive down the road, so that cutting him gets harder over time instead of easier. And for the record, it's always been about BOTH the money AND the draft picks. They're both part of the deal and part of what it would take to get him. You want to split it up to make it sound like people are being unreasonable but the reality is that it's too much to give up, in terms of money AND draft picks, for a 1-year rental of a guy that might actually not be able to play a full season. |

There's absolutely no reason for him to restructure. He's guaranteed to get all $15M this season, no matter what. |

It's weird how the $15 mil this year was such a sticking point to you and now, finding a way to reduce if is also a sticking point. So you just don't want to pay him at all huh? |

And yes I'd be willing to add more guaranteed years to get a future hall of famer who has had 1 non all pro season in his last 7. Or figure out how to extend Mathieu and take the whole 15 mil this year. Either way works. |

What if we gave him 131 posts, guaranteed on signing netting him a minimum of 1,000?
The structure could look like: 869 posts (paid by Atlanta) 2021: 100 posts (guaranteed) 2022: 30 posts (again, guaranteed) 2023: 1 post (also guaranteed) |

For the trade to be completed, we would need the cap space to cover his base salary. 15.2m. Now, Atlanta could restructure the deal to facilitate a trade, but that would be the owner writing Julio a check for millions of dollars to leave...and that money would go straight to dead money fir them...not improving their situation. |
