With the additional $10 mil in cap space this, signing Chris Jones to a long term deal will be easy. Signing him to a 5 yr/$110 mil deal is completely doable and wouldn't handcuff us financially. The yearly cap hit could look something like this
Yr 1 - $13 mil
Yr 2 - $17 mil
Yr 3 - $26 mil
Yr 4 - $27 mil
Yr 5 - $27 mil
Keep it low in the 1st 2 years and then in year 3,4,5 it will probably look like a very good deal because contracts are about to go crazy.
