Debate: Julio Jones or A.J. Green?
From most the information coming from draft pundits following the combine, this draft is absolutely loaded with defensive talent. Let me begin by saying that an edge rusher, opposite Orakpo in our new 3-4 is arguably our paramount need in this draft (We all know we have several positions of need). For the sake of discussion, lets consider the slight possibilty that the top edge rushers (Quinn, Bowers, Miller) and defensive tackles (Dareus, Fairley) may be snatched by up by teams ahead of us. If by chance this scenario happens, this may be our opportunity to grab our #1 reciever for years to come...A.J. Green or Julio Jones.
Julio Jones is an absolute physical freak and extremely tough competitor (based on his results at the combine and knowing that he put those numbers up on a broken foot). He is physically imposing and is a devastating blocker in the game. Very solid in YAC and tough to tackle in the open field. A.J. Green on the other hand, is such a naturally gifted pass catcher. He catches everything thrown his way, runs crisp routes and gets consistent separation from defenders. His ability to go "up" for the ball is unmatched, not to mention, his knack for the spectacular catch. If we went WR at #10, Who do you think we should take, Jones or Green, and why?
