Julio has shown to be one of the 5 best humans at his job over the past 5+ years. He's in the middle of his athletic prime right now. Not worried.

Yes, bought Julio for M Gordon 3 weeks back. The entire Falcons offense is concerning. You couldn't have asked for a better situation to get Julio the ball playing tight with the fins, and trailing them. Julio should have feasted this week, and his lack of RZ looks is very disappointing.

If they can't get the team right for their rematch with the Pats, I would be concerned with the entire offense, including Julio going forward.

Yes and no. Not as much with him personally (talent wise), but with the offense and Ryan. It is fake football, so he needs points and some scores. Whatever the excuse is does not really matter in the grand scheme of things IF it does not get changed. New England D is horrible, but one thing Bill B has always done well in the past is eliminate your main weapon or strength. Atl rarely targets Julio in the red zone or seems to force him the ball like AB or OBJ types do, at least it seems that way when watching. I do not get why they never do the fade/jump ball in the end zone like so many offenses utilize, when Julio is out there snagging jump balls 50 yards down the field between the 20s. I benched him a couple weeks ago and almost cost me starting him this week in what I thought was a bounce back opportunity. I have not given up hope, but he is no longer in automatic start territory for me, for the time being.

If Julio Jones is no longer an automatic start for you, it is more of a reflection of your league's starting requirements and your team's depth than anything else. And, if it is for your team in your sig, depending on required starters, flex players etc, he is an automatic start.

Just saying. I don't think he's fallen quite as far as your take hints at. Walk ... slowly.... back away from the cliff.

TDs can very wildly year by year. The offense is still finding it's rhythm, and the Julio, DFree, Coleman, and Ryan will all get theirs when things settle down.

That said, I understand your frustration. Freeman setting up the red zone with a 44 yard rush and Coleman got the TD carry. Ouch.

Concerned? No. Frustrated as an owner? I guess.

He will get his. The talent hasn't changed and won't anytime soon. The situation hasn't been great so far this year, but that organization will eventually fix that, and then Julio will start getting his again.

Remember when people were writing off AJG going into last year because his 'what have you done for me lately?' stock was down? That is all that's happening here with Julio

Not worried.

The offense as a whole is pretty bad.
Ryan only has 6 TDs through 5 games.

For all those saying not worried, I disagree. Julio is still a top WR talent and will have some of his signature blow up games, but I'm definitely worried at least a little bit when Sarkisian can't figure out that the passing offense needs to run through Julio, especially when Sanu is out. I think Julio will finish the season as a top 24 WR in PPR, but I am definitely worried that top-5 or top-10 is looking less likely given his current target share and lack of goal line targets.

Having taken Julio in our league's inaugural draft 5 or 6 years ago, I finally flipped him for D Hopkins last week. I just got tired of Julio's nagging injuries and frustrated with the team's refusal to get him more targets, especially in the red zone. Plus, Hopkins is 3 years younger than Julio.

He may be following a Calvin Johnson-like career trajectory. It wouldn't shock me if it is over sooner than people expected.

Awe, cmon guys, lighten up. The way I see it...he has 0 tds to this point so his annual 6-8 scores are yet to come is all. Subtract the two or three games he’ll still miss this season and you’ve got a WR averaging about 1 TD per game the rest of the way. Booyah!

I am worried. He is signed for a long while so if there is an "offense" problem as so many have said, then it affects Julio. I really don't get why they don't feed him more, but I don't watch enough Atlanta games to know if he is being double covered every game. Even if he is, I have a feeling he will still win the majority of the time. Atlanta is just struggling everywhere right now, and hopefully they can fix it.
