When Julio Jones went down injured in 2013, fans worried how his athleticism would fare post-surgery. Jones has answered his critics in 2014, coming out firing on all cylinders and proving to be one of the most dominant receivers in the league. The star wideout ranks 3rd in receptions (2nd amongst WRs), 2nd in receiving yards, has picked up the 2nd most first downs in the league and ranks 1st in catches of 20 yards or more. Jones has been dominant from week 1, and is on track to break several personal records. At this rate, Jones will finish with 116 receptions for 1788 yards and 12 TDs, setting new a franchise record for receptions and shattering the current yards record by over 400 yards. He is not only a statistical monster, but continuously pulls double coverage, allowing for Roddy White, Harry Douglas and Devin Hester to get free.
