3 Perfect landing spots for receiver Julio Jones
By Nick Halden
3. The Tampa Bay Bucs
Julio Jones teaming up with another team within the NFC South would be tough for the Atlanta Falcons and their fans. However, it has to be a consideration for Julio Jones when you look at the landscape of the league this season. The NFC is the far weaker conference and Tom Brady’s teams are seemingly always in Super Bowl contention.
The Bucs clawed back against the Rams and had them on the ropes before a late Cooper Kupp miracle catch. Julio Jones could team up with former teammate Russell Gage and join a loaded group with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. At this point in his career Brady spreads the ball at will and would consistently have Julio involved in the Tampa Bay offense.
While he may not put up the numbers he would elsewhere due to the team’s depth he would have a great shot at winning a Super Bowl in an impact role. With the Rams as the only clear threat in the NFC the Bucs have a great shot at making a playoff run and giving Julio the ring Brady robbed him off in the 2016 season.
Jones teaming up with Tom Brady would be tough for Atlanta fans to swallow but from a business perspective it is certainly a move Julio should be considering.
