The Falcons want to unload him, apparently.

Absolutely not.

He has been a great player in this league, and still may give you a good season or two, but he's 32 and is coming off a year with a bunch of injuries.  Neither is a good sign.

Give me the younger, cheaper guy who can give me (hopefully) 4 years of contributions.

For our second 2nd rounder? 

It would be one thing if we only had one second round or if we were talking the 25th or 33rd pick but for the 45th pick, I’d go for it.  If we got one or two seasons out of him that would be worth it in my mind.

We go Qb, Ot, and Te with first three picks then add Jones with 4th and our entire Offense will have completely revamped in two days.

I understand the health concerns but the chances of us hitting on all 4 of our first picks is remote at best. If Jones is healthy he is still top tier for at least another season or two.
