Julio Jones Enters 2020 Healthy; Still Top-Tier Option
4 years agoAtlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones has spent the last decade as one of the preeminent wide receivers in the league. While he enters 2020 at 31 years old, he has not had any documented maladies impeding his offseason progress. The rapport developed between Jones and Matt Ryan has entrenched the seven-time Pro Bowler as a front two-round Draft choice, going off the board as high as the second WR taken. Even with the emergence of Calvin Ridley as a blockbuster fantasy stalwart in his own right, Jones has averaged 161.7 targets per season over his past six years, which if healthy, makes him an elite wideout. He opens the new year against Seattle in Week 1, a unit that allowed an average of 263.9 passing yards per game last season, in addition to being carved up by Jones for 152 yards in their lone meeting.
