Problem is, I don't think ATL would trade with any of those three - especially not within division to TB. He'll probably end up with Pats. He wants to play with Cam, and it's an easy sell to the falcons (out of conference, belichick will probably give up a late first). GB would also be good. Help Rodgers get some of the sand out of his va jay jay maybe. Also hopefully not Seattle, our draft pick would suck.. oh wait, they have nothing to trade. My bad. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, of course. 10 minutes ago, The Crusher said: If he wants to win that’s exactly what he will do. But 98% of the time the really just want money. He very well may be the exception. As long as he isn’t in the AFC East I’m cool. As greenwich says, it's not totally in his control but to play devil's advocate -- I wonder how much some of the all time greats who made tons of dough but never won a ring would pay now to have won it all once. Dan Marino would probably pay many millions to have won one, if you asked him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember a time in my life that I wanted a non brady/belichick team to suck as much as I want the seahawks to suck this year. Rooting for ANYBODY to trade for DangeRuss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in a million years-he is going to go to the pats and u can book that I wish I had a nickel every time some fan predicted a FA would sign with the Pats. They're always going to the Pats and we should book it. Occasionally they do, most often they dont 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I think he's 32 or something now? Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but I can't see Julio Jones being a fit here unless the Jets were THAT GOOD, NOW, TODAY, so just plug & play. I like Jones as a player, don't get me wrong; but it's kind of like when people were entertaining Russell Wilson coming here. I wasn't entertained by that notion, either. I know you were just throwing it out there, but I agree: whatev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense Wins Championships Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Going after a 32 year old Julio Jones would be like the Knicks going after Melo. We'd have to trade away too much talent and/or draft capital. Do it the 2020-2021 KNICKS way. Denzel Mims. Corey Davis. Elijah Moore. Jamison Crowder. And come 2022's draft if we REALLY need a #1 WR? Draft one 1st round! Julio Jones is great but we're building something special right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get your point, at the same time let’s give Zach every chance to be comfortable, let’s give our young wrs a chance to learn from the best, and let’s have some goddamn fun for once. Trade Seattle’s first for Julio and let’s be stacked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're making a trade for a 32-year old WR, a 2nd rounder and maybe a 5th/6th should be all we're willing to part with to get it done. If they say no, oh well, let someone else give up a 1st.

Fair point but Russ cooks in my opinion, he’ll make the playoffs all day long. Pick in the 20s for Julio. I’m doing it even though I know it’s not the smartest long term play. But I’m a fan not the GM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think with a healthy defense, SF is dangerous, and perhaps Kyler Murray takes the next step. It will not be easy for Russ and the Seahawks to make the playoffs out of that division no matter how well he plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Lew Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 If I’m not mistaken Russ has missed the playoffs once in his career. I bet the odds. You’re on the side of unlikely. I’m not saying you’re wrong, just that I disagree. A mid 20s pick for Julio is something I go for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draft one 1st round! Julio Jones is great but we're building something special right now. Well now that you mention it... ATL doesn't really have a good candidate for slot. We have too many slot WRs. What about Crowder plus a 2nd round pick for Julio and we maybe pick up a little of Crowder's salary to help them with their cap more than the $5M they would already save. It's not crazy. And it would solve the (pardon me for saying this) crowd at slot WR we have. Maybe it costs us a net of something like $8-9M over our current cap, which we can very much handle. Julio / Davis / Mims / Moore / Cole. Now that is a WR room fit for a rookie QB! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen their roster less talented than it is now. If they're gonna get there, it will require their disgruntled QB carrying the entire load. Even moreso than he did last year. Possible? Yes. Probable? Not in my mind, no. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
