We still have what amounts to 4 years of cost control with George. Two on his rookie deal, the 5th year option, and the first year of his new contract. That will put Jones in the final year of his deal by the time the money starts to hit. As long as we're good with other contracts, it should be fine. Who knows if Jones will even play that last year, he might retire by then.

If he has another year that progresses as the last 2 have, he’s not seeing that 5th year option

Did it feel like he plateaued around week 12?

He absolutely looked significantly better in the first several weeks than he had as a rookie and looked to be getting better week over week. But I felt like he maybe hit a ceiling in the latter 1/3 or so of the year.

Maybe.

I'm just saying if he has another double digit sack season, I don't know how he doesn't ask for something like Brian Burns or Josh Allen got.

Rather pay Hollywood than Bolton.

Sorry, I am not a fan of paying big money to off-ball linebackers unless they are absolutely special.

Since you're the one saying this, my knee jerk reaction is that we need to kill Hollywood and pay Bolton like a QB

If you want to make the case to overpay an off-ball LB that isn't great in coverage or all 3 downs, be my guest.

Let's hear it.

There is no way he's getting that and nor should he unless he takes another very big step forward. He is not at that level
