The problem is with the Jags' cap space. They're at $114,000 if they sign all their draft picks. Basically zero

To break even on cap space, they'd have to get to $8.5 million for Dalton. That would be 60% of the money ($14,281,976) they have to spend on draft picks. 

Round 1, Pick #9 - - - - - - - - $3,822,949

They might, if they were stupid, do that for Patrick Mahomes, but not for Andy Dalton.
