That is a crazy amount for someone his age but makes ATL look good and does lock in a dominant player until he is not good most likely.

 

He probably got an escalator for "not behaving like AB"

 

Edit: and I'm good with that

I could actually see contracts adding that clause in worded that exact same way in the future

Good signing for both. Puts to bed the Julio going anywhere for awhile. He is a ‘Blank’ guy. I think he will be productive for the entire amount of that contract. Also allows him and Ryan to play together for their entire career most likely.

Crazy deal IMO for a guy with injury issues. A FULLY guaranteed extension and basically paying him the whole check up front??? I mean...am I reading this right?

It is crazy.  Especially for a team who's window loudly slammed shut 3 years ago.

Good for both parties.  Probably Julio's last big payday and the Falcons and Matt Ryan need him.  Still some big production left in Julio.

That's a lot of guaranteed money for somebody in their 30's.  There's a risk that an injury could derail his career and then the Falcons are stuck in salary cap hell.  Jones is well worth the money but it's still a risky contract.
