Julio Jones The Best Receiver In The NFL?
4 years agoAtlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones remains the best receiver in the league, according to NFL.com's Bucky Brooks. The 10-year veteran is an explosive track athlete with A-plus size and strength. Jones has reached 12,000 receiving yards faster than any pass-catcher in league history (125 games). He also has the highest career average in receiving yards per game (96.2) in NFL history. The 31-year-old has 1,300-plus yards in each of the last six seasons as the gold standard for the position. Jones is a dynamic route-runner with strong hands as well. He's on the wrong side of 30 and has dealt with nagging injuries in recent seasons, so he might not have the elite upside he once had, but Jones is one of the safest top-five fantasy wideouts around.
