Julio Jones

Julio Jones seems to always put up monster numbers week and week since coming into the league.  It’s rare that he gets less than five catches per game, but this season he’s done it four times out of the eight games that the Falcons have played.  Either he is hurt, or the other team is double teaming him on every play.

It doesn’t hurt that Jones has Matt Ryan throwing him the ball and that Jones is an exceptional athlete.  The Buccaneers secondary isn’t that good so Jones should have a fantastic game against them.

I’d be shocked if Jones didn’t have 150 yards receiving and two touchdowns.  He is my stone cold lock as your first wide receiver for this week.
