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.

By all means, if we could get his salary down BEFORE signing, that would be much more palatable. But that doesn't work this time around.
Crazy as it sounds, it looks like Atlanta will need to restructure part of his deal prior to a trade for anyone to offer anything significant for him, so the immediate 2021 salary may not be as big of a hurdle as we think it may be.

For sure if that happens, we should be all over it. Plus you have to think that the draft pick compensation will come down too the longer it takes. They need cap relief bad.

Tyreek's on board.

“If I could play alongside Julio Jones, that would be amazing,” Hill told reporters in Wichita at Hill’s youth football camp. “I was in high school when he was doing his thing at Alabama, and I’ve been a fan ever since. How big he is, how fast he is and how dominant he is, we all know Julio is arguably the best in the game. If I’m able to play alongside Julio, I would love it.”

Would he still love it if he had to take an under-market value extension to pay for Julios bloated contract?

If we don’t trade for Julio, then I feel great about what Powell, Hardman, Robinson, and Gray will do this year. If Veach feels there is an issue with our receiving options, he’ll find a way to make a splash.

If Veach chooses not to make a move, then we should feel good about what we have.

It seems the Falcons spread a bunch of rumors that a team or multiple teams were lining up to give them a 1st rounder and take on Julio's salary.

So far...crickets.

If they restructure Julio- eat a big helping of his salary and settle for a 3rd- they can move him this week-lol

I think they’re still around 11 mil, which is still short, but closer than we are.
