ESPN Article


quote:



This shouldn’t come as a total surprise from Jones, who caught 54 passes for 959 yards and eight touchdowns as a rookie, despite sitting out three full games and missing parts of others.






quote:



“In my mind, he missed five and a half games,’’ coach Mike Smith said. “If you extrapolate his numbers out, it’s a monster year. We know he’s going to impact the game.’’

Article makes no mention on Matt Ryan's vagina.

Having the worst deep ball passer in the NFL will hold him back.

True, but look at all the time he missed last season, and he still had almost 1000 yards and 8 TDs.

Jones is better than Green tbh.

It hurt him a lot last year. The jump ball isn't Julio's strongest area, and Ryan underthrows 90% of the deep passes he attempts.

Meh. We all have different opinions. Though if Jones hadn't missed all that time he could've easily had 1250ish yards and 11ish TDs.

Though if frogs had shock absorbers they wouldn't bump their arse when they hopped.

this is the concern with Julio, can he stay healthy. He's incredibly talented but he has struggled with injuries since his days at Bama.

I've got Julio in my top 10 fantasy WR this year, he'll outperform Roddy IMO....but he's not better than A.J.

If they both played 16 games against the same schedule, who would have better numbers?

But he didn't this isn't fantasy land. While he is a rising star, he hasn't put it all together just yet. I don't think he is a top 5 WR yet.

Hmm. Jones logged stats in all but one game. Somebody is wrong here.
