[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 884782"] It shouldn't matter but it is not $60 mil to a team acquiring Jones in trade. Atlanta would have to eat the prorated signing bonus. If the trade was executed at the deadline, the team acquiring Jones would be on the hook for 9/16 of his 2020 salary, $6.3 mil. They would also be on the hook for his guaranteed $15.3 mil salary for 2021. In total, it's $21.6 mil through 2021. After that there would be no guarantees, no dead cap, at which point you could renegotiate the remaining years or release him or keep him at the $11.5 mil 2022 salary at age 33 which at this jucture would be doubtful. From the Falcon's standpoint, they would be carrying over $23.25 mil in dead cap to 2021 less the $6.3 mil in 2020 salary savings = net $17 mil dead cap going into 2021, less than his cap cost for that year if retained. Large signing bonus hangovers make these kinds of trades prohibitive. That 2021 guarantee, besides giving up a high value pick, would be a non-starter. You've already got high value players hitting free agency with a potential $175 mil cap next season. And this is the age where WRs start to accumulate injuries, lose speed, where great ones start to slip into the good category and then down from there. [/QUOTE]
