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.

Actually, it does.

Do you honestly believe he makes that jump if his situation doesn’t drastically improve? He had a bad OL, no weapons, and no running game in Miami. You seem to have no clue just how much better his situation got in Tennessee. He’s not improving his numbers anywhere close to that in the same situation he had in Miami.

Also, by “pretty much every QB”, do you mean the guys that have great regular season stats that aren’t indicative of how good they actually are? Playoff football separates the legit QB’s from the pumpkins. It always has. You could make this same defense for Lamar and you’d sound just as ****ing stupid.

For some perspective, Tannehill has 534 passing yards in 4 ****ing playoff games. He’s averaging 133.5 passing yards in the playoffs. He’s had over 200 in just one game, and it was only 209. He’s had less than 100 in half of them. That’s ****ing AWFUL.

Yes, Julio is obviously a tremendous upgrade from Corey Davis, but they didn’t just lose Davis, they also lost a top 8 TE in Jonnu Smith.

They’ve had great weapons the last 2 years. Losing those guys and adding Julio doesn’t all of a sudden make them unstoppable.

Until the centerpiece of their offense, Queen Henry inevitably gets injured.

A RB with a physical running style coming off consecutive 300+ carries seasons… what could go wrong.

Henry might make 2,000 yards again, but 50 a game? Nah. Tannehill is better than people give him credit for, but he's not that good.

Davis had 5 TDs last year.

Julio averages 6 per. He’s overrated.

No, but I also don’t believe he makes this jump without improving himself either.

You were wrong. Just admit it. He wasn’t “maxed out” in Miami under Gase’s tutelage. We’re seeing that now.

And I mean “pretty much every QB not named Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes”. The vast majority get worse in the postseason, including the all-time greats.

Oh I was absolutely wrong about that on the surface, because I didn’t seem him going to a situation that was a complete 180 while also getting a chance to start. You do realize a lot of shit had to line up for that to happen, right?

But at the end of the day, the Tannehill you get come playoff time isn’t all that much better from the guy we saw in Miami. He just has a better team around him, which is my point.

He didn’t just “get worse”. That’s an understatement. I love how you didn’t even acknowledge those god awful playoff numbers. That’s convenient considering your entire argument is based on stats.
