Update May 22

The Julio Jones rumors are swirling for sure. The Chargers and the Patriots are making some noise as teams that are high on Jones. Especially the Patriots as reports are surfacing that they are considering making a move for the veteran.

However, the odds have yet to change and other teams to include the Ravens, 49ers and Lions are still considered the favorites to get Jones in a trade.

Julio Jones Contract

If the Falcons are going to successfully trade Jones they are going to get someone who is willing to accept his massive contract. According to spotrac, Jones is currently playing on a 3-year $66M deal with $64M of that guaranteed. Jones is going to get his money, regardless of where he plays in the future.

Julio Jones Trade Odds

Everyone is speculating that Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots will be the front runners to land Jones, but the odds disagree. Atlanta is still the favorite to keep him (-400), but other teams like the San Francisco 49ers (+250), Las Vegas Raiders (+333), and the Detroit Lions (+450) all have better odds than the Patriots (+550). The odds will fluctuate with the latest news and you can follow them here.

Heading to Nashville?

Like in the NBA, other players are trying to recruit Jones. Derrick Henry, the superstar running back of the Tennessee Titans has made it clear that his team needs to make a move.

If the Titans listen to King Henry, they are a solid bet right now at +1100 to deal for Jones. Jones is an asset for any team and that is certainly true for a Tennessee team that is off a successful season.

What’s It Going to Take?

Jones is off a sub-par year with just 51 catches, over 700 yards, and 3 scores. However, he did deal with a reoccurring hamstring issue that sidelined him most of the season. He is also 32-years-old and that could sway some teams away from trading for Jones. At a minimum, the Falcons will receive minimum draft picks, like in this trade scenario.


However, teams will have to wrestle with the salary cap (like the Chiefs) if they want to make a move. The Falcons will most likely request a No. 1 pick, but I wouldn’t count on that happening.

Who gets Julio?

The 49ers and the Falcons are interesting options, but it’s clear the Falcons will ship him for value. The 49ers already dumped draft picks in this year’s draft so it’s unlikely they do it for an older wideout. The Patriots, Chargers, and the Titans are also teams that will be in the mix. Belichick won’t dump major draft capital and the Titans will likely pass. That leaves two teams that will vie for Julio’s services, the Raiders, and the Colts. The Raiders are always looking for a big name to bring to Las Vegas and they have been linked to Jones before.

Gruden loves veteran wide receivers and a proven pass catcher would be an asset to the team. He will also help in the growth and development of young players like Henry Ruggs.  It won’t be easy but the one team that will trade for Julio Jones is the Las Vegas Raiders.
