Julio Jones (June 6 Update - Traded to the Titans)

[Ochmed Jones]

We could have every all pro receiver in the nfl in our lineup, but the fact remains, newton is beyond terrible and an embarrassment as a thrower.

jones is a rookie headed for a red shirt year and stidham could not beat out a horrible newton last year.

the best receivers in the nfl could not make newton look good.

I don’t agree with that logic. Because Newton was so bad should we not upgrade the team around him? Was it a mistake getting the tight ends? Should we just say ahh oh well let’s not put a top offensive line in front of him to protect cause he sucked?

look I’m not his biggest fan either but I still want the best possible team out there on Sunday’s.

I never said anything about the team, just the receivers.

do you understand how the forward pass works? Jerry rice could not catch passes thrown into the ground! Newton could not deliver the ball to a receiver if there were no defenders covering the receiver. His arm/shoulder are toast!

Yes I understand the concept of a forward pass. So you prefer the crap that’s been out there the last few seasons? Cause I sure as heck don’t. Again I’m not his biggest fan either I’m not making him out to be great or even good. But I’d still prefer to have as much talent catching balls than the garbage that’s been there last couple years, regardless of who’s playing qb.

Julio Jones, Jerry Jones, Jonathan Jones and Mac Jones. This boards is looking Jonesey this morning.

Don't you think Super Bowl hangover will have an impact? Ariens isn't exactly a disciplinarian. There is a reason all previous winners brought in some new blood.

The reason teams lose players after winning is because some players want to cash in on the success while they can. The Bucs seem to be on the opposite side of that. All the players want to stay to see if they can repeat. I think Brady might have some influence also.

It will be interesting to see if repeating is as strong of a motivator as winning for the first time.

They don't seem to be complacent, but everyone reacts differently, well, except for Brady. He's obsessed with winning.

The Falcons, miffed by the blow to their trade leverage that came from Julio Jones' "I'm out of there" comments on FS1, are using their own website to build back some of it.

it's gotta be an NFC team imo. NFC this year doesn't look that hard. Buccs Packers maybe 49ers. NO got worse, Rams idk.
The AFC is harder to win. I would guess it's Green Bay who should use the Rodgers years and a weaker NFC imo. Ravens could try it tough.

I know this is not really Adam Schefter but that would be a wretched trade for the Patriots if it was anything like this.
