Jarvis Landry probably has better stats through his time than Julio did as well. Jarvis > Julio
We have to think, Julio Jones played second-fiddle to a few players when he arrived in Atlanta... Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez were both there and already conformed with the offense. Roddy White had just come off his 4th consecutive 1,000 yard season, and we all know how good Tony Gonzalez was.

When O'dell Beckham Jr arrived in New York, his only competition was Reuben Randle's lazy arse. Victor Cruz was hurt and unable to play. So, basically, it was OBJ and nobody else.

It's no surprise Julio Jones' stats aren't up to par with OBJ's during their first 31 games considering the above.

Hell, look At Demaryius Thomas' stats from the first few years before Peyton Manning arrived...

Right.

And hell, Julio got banged up and probably wasn't a consistent enough player at first like OBJ was when he entered the league.

Julio has really improved.
