Why would Dallas be talking on releasing one of the best in the league Jones (due to two other big contracts in Dak & Coop), only to pick up another for a few million less? How's that saving them any money?!
They can't afford to keep him.
I mean they technically can but the cost might be too high. If the cap hit for Dak is around 30m next year (which if he signed a 36-37m AAV contract it could easily be), and its around 15m for Coop (similar logic), then you have enough to get Jones on a 13m cap hit, but that basically ends your free agency right there as I believe that leaves you with about 19m left in cap dollars and you need around 8m to sick draft picks.
