You extend Sneed and secure the best corner tandem in the NFL for the next 3 seasons. Jones was inconsistent last season. His play will only dip going forward. He would've gotten us a 1st at minimum. We would use that pick to get a guy like Newton.
Not a fan of giving big extensions to guys almost 30 who aren't QBs. It rarely ever pays off.

We would be lucky to get a 2 for Jones. Doubt if we get that and Jones would still be $33 mil cap hit that would all come in 2024 if we couldn't trade him. He's better off leaving and offsetting other FA signings and may lead to a comp pick if we can't sign him and spread out the cap hits. Sneed was the easy decision.
