conventional thought is JJ...who is 29 and Ryan is starting to suck . Adams is 25 has Arod chunking it to him and JN and RC will be gone by next year (most likely)...a case can be made for Adams...though, I will be in minority.

I think it all depends on whether you are going for more of a win-now approach or not. If you go Julio, imo, he is more of a win-now guy. You could always do a mixture of both which is what I “try” to do, me personally, I would take Julio.

I think my vote would be neither. It would be interesting to see who is still available. Adams is younger but the head injuries scare me LT. If you pick Julio, you'll be looking to trade him in a year or two for youth.

I prefer Adams both this season and long-term. Dude can play and they just upped his contract. Julio is a monster but they don’t consistently feed him and his injuries are frustrating as a fantasy owner.

Julio by a significant margin for me. Elite level talent. High floor, massive ceiling. Best I can say about Adams is he is a safe pick with a decent floor.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I like Adams, younger, better QB and I've never been the biggest Julio guy

Julio over Adams in a vacuum.

But, if this is for your first round pick, I would say neither. I wouldn't trust either to be the foundation of my team. Sad day to say that about Julio, but age is catching up to him and the Falcons seem to be on the decline. Adams is good and tied to Rodgers, but I just don't think he's THAT good. He's a great second round pick

This is just youth crazy. Adams has never had over 1k yards in four seasons, while Julio hasn't had a season with less than 1400 yards in five seasons.

I get discounting him because of age. But I don't get taking Adams if the choice is between these two.

Happy to see the Julio responses. I've been lower on him than most throughout his career but people are crazy low on him after last season. Great buying opportunity for both him and Green.

Adams went right before I was up with the 2.07 in a 12 team league (Superflex). It made the decision very easy. I went with Julio.
