After Jimmy Sexton, the agent for Julio Jones, came into town last week, many Falcons fans expected a deal would be announced soon, but that hasn't happened so far.
Certainly Julio is in a position of leverage as the team desperately needs him on the field when the season starts and if he does decide to play hardball the Falcons will have to react accordingly.
"Does he up the ante, does he force their hand a little bit? How you force their hand is don't play. How serious are you?" asks Hugh. "If he doesn't play it changes the dynamic and you wonder what it means moving forward. If it's not moving along sometimes you have to take drastic measures."
