re: Herb Jones signed, 3 year deal

He's a 2nd round pick, he may not even be making $1 million per year. And the length doesn't matter, what matters are the team options/guarantees.

the length matters also in that it means he's being signed using the MLE b/c you can't give out a 3 year minimum deal, you have to use the MLE to give out that third year if the salary is the minimum, which is what we did with Naji too.
