Instead of a pick for Jones what about Jacoby Brissett? He would have experience in whatever offense Chad O'Shea is bringing to Miami. I know Ballard said he wouldn't give him up for cheap but a guy on a cheap rookie deal versus signing a vet FA or wasting a draft pick on a QB seems like a no brainer.

He's a FA after next season and we'd rather have the draft pick than a lackluster starting QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be a good rotational guy if his body can stay working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like Jones and he’s been very productive for us, but given a chance to swap him for Brissett, heck yes......I would even sweeten the pot with a 5th round 2019 pick.

I'm going to release my offseason as I would do it, starting with coaching staff and player cuts. Since Flores is basically a given at this point, I'm going to roll with him: my first choice would have been Vic Fangio but I as far as I am concerned Flores has a blank slate and I hope for his success. GM Chris Grier (he's the new King of the Castle - he is responsible for of all of football operations - scouting, drafting, free agency and HC hiring) Assistant GM Marvin Allen KC's Director of College Scouting from 2013 to 2017 BUF Assistant GM in 2018 HC Brian Flores (read about him here) "Flores, 37, has been a member of the Patriots organization since 2004, when he joined the team as a scouting assistant. He switched over to coaching in 2008 as a special teams assistant, climbing the ranks on Bill Belichick’s staff until he took over play-calling duties for the defense this past season, after former defensive coordinator Matt Patricia left New England to become Detroit’s head coach. In 2010, Flores was an offensive assistant/special teams coach, and in 2011, he was a defensive assistant. From 2012-15, he was the team’s safety coach, before taking on linebackers coach duties in 2016." Assistant HC: Bret Bielema Spent 2018 as "special assistant" to Belichick, whatever the hell that means. Has been linked to Flores. HC Arkansas 2013-2017 HC Wisconsin 2006-2012 spent prior 9 years as LB coach / defensive coordinator Offensive Coordinator: Tom Melvin TE Coach in KC 2013-present TE Coach in PHI 2002-2012, so has spent the last decade and a half under Andy Reid 10 years of OC experience at UC-Santa Barbara & Occidental College former offensive line coach Defensive Coordinator: Patrick Graham Green Bay LB Coach and Run Game Coordinator 2018 NYG Defensive Line Coach 2016-2017 New England Defensive Assistant / LB Coach 2009-2015 where he worked with Flores Yale Graduate Special Teams Coordinator: Darren Rizzi While he is courting other teams, it has been reported that "no decision is imminent". There is no salary cap on coaches; Flores wants Rizzi to stay, he has survived multiple head coaches before him, and Ross I'm sure would be happy to make him the highest-paid ST coach in the NFL, in a state where his family is settled and he pays no state income tax. SALARY CAP SITUATION The 2019 salary cap will be $189 million. Miami can roll over $6.92 million in unused 2018 cap for a practical 2019 cap of $195.92 million. Miami currently has $168.04 million on the books in salary, and an additional $13.54 million in dead cap for a total of $181.58 million; therefore, before any cuts/restructures Miami enters the 2019 offseason with a mere $14.34 million in cap space. PLAYER CUTS QB Ryan Tannehill - Miami can save $18.75m in cap space ($7.86m dead cap) by designating Tannehill as a post-June cut. I don't think teams will bite on a trade - however, I do think Tannehill will make some money this offseason. DE Robert Quinn - This is a no-brainer, Miami can save $12.93m with absolutely no dead cap. With Miami moving more towards a 3-4 hybrid, Quinn has no place on this team. WR DeVante Parker - Miami saves $9.93m, this is another easy move. Any need for an explanation here? DvP played smaller than his size for years and never sniffed his potential. Bye bye. DE Andre Branch - Miami saves $7.0m, with $2.0m in dead cap. 11.5 sacks in three seasons gives us yet another example of why Miami should dabble in free agency only seldomly. LB Kiko Alonso - Miami can save $6.51m if they designate Kiko as a post-June 1st cut; they'll also take on $1.76m in dead cap. Kiko isn't a bad LB - he played virtually every snap for Miami this past year and had a penchant for turnovers like he did in 2016. However, he has obvious limitations and tends to be boom-or-bust; he isn't worth paying to be a progress stopper on a team that likely won't be competitive until 2020 at the earliest. WR Danny Amendola - Miami saves $6.0m. I'm sure he's a great professional blah blah blah - Miami also has Kenny Stills to fill that role and it's not worth keeping 33-year-old. DT Akeem Spence - Miami saves $2.5m. Another progress-stopper, let Vincent Taylor and Davon Godchaux grow into larger roles while adding more defensive linemen in the draft. OG Ted Larsen - Miami saves $1.87m, and incurs $420k in dead cap. Larsen wasn't quite John Jerry bad - but he was close. After the above cuts, Miami will enter the draft and free agency with $79.83 million in cap space FYI you can only have one post june 1st cut cant have multiple ones to clear cap.
