These two will always be compared because of their college careers and draft class. AJ has been given the edge by most so far but I am thinking Julio has finally gotten it all together and solved his drop issues and possibly taken the lead this year. Just FYI I'm a UGA fan and NOT a falcons fan.

Yes. Julio is arguably the 2nd best wide receiver in the league

I think so, Julio is starting to look like a mini Megatron

Hard to tell because Andy Dalton sucks.

No. Falcons have better everything surrounding Julio. AJ has vomit.

Yes. Julio has been leading the league in REC yards this year. Idk if he will after tonight or not, but Julio has closed the small gap between him and Green.

I still think it is a toss up, but I am starting to think so.
Julio was the best investment ATL has made in years.

maybe, but AJ has Andy Dalton throwing to him as opposed to Matt Ryan. Dalton's an average at best QB

Definitely a toss up right now. Green did a lot last year with really no help.

No and barring injury he most likely never will.

AJ has been better every step of the way.

No. AJ is the #1 target on the Fengals with very little talent outside of him. Julio is the #3 option on his team.

Julio has always been better.

Better in College, better in the pros.

I say yes.

If AJ had similar talent around him this might be a different conversation. Julio has taken that next step this year. He is a monster and Top 3 in the league at his position. AJ can do much the same, but not so far this year.

I'd still prefer Green, but I wouldn't be upset with either on my team.

I do think a lot of people are sleeping on Green this season because of matchups and QB play. He's faced Ike Taylor, Joe Haden and Aqib Talib in three straight weeks, and he has shithead Andy Dalton attempting to throw the ball straight AND down the field. Certainly a tall order for Mrs. Dalton

haven't really had many chances to see AJ Green play since he plays for the Bengals.

Julio went up a notch in my book when he had a nice postseason against Seattle and San Fran.

once Tony G. retires, he should be the leading pass catcher for them and Roddy White is starting to get a little old.

I do think that Julio benefits from playing in a better offense though.

So I don't even bother comparing Green and Julio's stats head-to-head.

I mean how pointless is that?

Green gets doubled a whole helluva lot more than Julio because teams have to account for so much more when playing ATL.
