even if he had taken the pay cut to 4 million dollars, he would have counted 16.3. did we really cut him to save less then a million bucks in cap space?

we saved 4.7 million, thats it. dillion will count 1.3, and somehow nixon is 6+ million a year

should have just kept him, and rewarded a guy who wanted to be here and actually took a pay cut last year
If the fact he went straight to purple for the same amount doesn’t tell you how it went down then you are not only a hick but a stupid one at that. He wanted more, Pack said he wasn’t worth it, he took what Pack said he was worth anyways with a divisional rival. You can look through my post for years and see I was never a huge Jones guy. That’s because of consistency and like it or not it has hurt this team when trying to go on deep runs. He was great but always had worries he would blow a gasket while almost to the top of the mountain. If Jacobs can provide that we can see this young talented squad get to the top.

Look at the company you are keeping voting Jones:
Bretsky, homer
call_me_ishmael, clown show
Fritz, stalker
NewsBruin, must have been drunk
