I think JJ will be a TE he just doesn't know it yet.





Tell me you are joking. Julio is a piece of plywood with a uniform and helmet on.

Agree that AJ Green is probably better (has better hands), but Julio is very good. Yes he hasn't had a great statistical year, but they haven't had great QB play. Still I think he is a guy that you should game plan for. He is one of the best receivers in the SEC, and I think he'll be good in the NFL. I think PP can cover him, but a good throw with a good receiver can beat good coverage. If we get decent pressure on the Bama QB, then Julio probably won't be a factor.

I'm not worried about him, but if you ignore him he'll make you pay.

Bama is the media darling right now, and after the year they had last year and Nicki at the helm it makes for a good story which BTW is what ESPN & others are selling.

He's a dangerous WR at 6'4" we'd be saying that he'll kill if he was ours.

Speedy,


While I agree with you his numbers are far from impressive, he's finally healthy for the first time this year and he had 7 catches against Tennessee.

Couple that with an extra week to get healthy, he should be at 100% today. If we can shut down Bama's running game, they'll need Julio at full strength.

Dude is big and strong as an ox.
They haven't thrown to him much. When he does catch it, he's really tough to bring down.

I agree with the previous post that he will be a stud in the NFL. All he needs is a more pass-oriented offense and some NFL-caliber coaching.

Julio Jones would thrive with a pass happy offense such as Green Bay.
