As SB Nation continues with its week of “What Ifs?,” we continue on here at The Falcoholic with a difficult scenario to consider.
It’s a seismic question to begin to think about, one with a million and one ramifications that span across nearly a decade of Falcons football. After all, Jones has been a cornerstone to the franchise from Day 1 since the Falcons moved up to pick No. 6 of the 2011 NFL Draft to get him.
The ramifications of that trade and if it was worth it will be up for debate until the cows come home, but we’ll play a little make believe and try to imagine how this all would’ve sorted out had the Falcons not moved up for Jones on that fateful draft day more than eight years ago.
