Let's see how he does when Greer, Porter, and Jenkins are lined up against him. I cant wait.


According to NFL Network's Mike Mayock -- who's live in Flowery Branch -- No. 6 overall pick Julio Jones "may already be the most impressive player" at Falcons training camp.
Mayock described Jones as "more explosive off the ball than they thought." There's no question that Jones is being counted on as the No. 2 passing game option in Atlanta, and it'd be especially beneficial to his fantasy value if the Falcons opened up their offense. Michael Turner is slowing down and coming off groin surgery, so it makes sense for the Falcons to throw more.

He better be. They gave up a 1st, a 2nd and 2 4ths. He needs to be pretty productive to be as good as 2 starters and 2 regular contributors.

This. And I'm not a Julio, Alabama, and definitely not a Falcons fan.

He probably won't be doing much if that happens... well other than holding his hands up as Roddy White scores a TD.

He's actually really humble and quiet.

You'll see when scores 3+ TD's on the Saints between the 2 games.

Technically 3 starters and 2 regular contributors.

They gave up way to much for him - he will be good but not an elite WR IMO.

I'm sorry but lots of guys look good in practice but not in games. That being said i think he be good but not great. But DL, OL, and QBs win games not a WR.

Look I was happy on draft day bc of this. In the NFL, loading up with young guys each year in the draft is very important.

That's great and all but dude had some stone hands in big moments at Alabama. I'll remain highly skeptical thank you very much.
