Orlando Tim Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 That is a crazy amount for someone his age but makes ATL look good and does lock in a dominant player until he is not good most likely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Good signing for both. Puts to bed the Julio going anywhere for awhile. He is a ‘Blank’ guy. I think he will be productive for the entire amount of that contract. Also allows him and Ryan to play together for their entire career most likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StHustle Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Crazy deal IMO for a guy with injury issues. A FULLY guaranteed extension and basically paying him the whole check up front??? I mean...am I reading this right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Good for both parties. Probably Julio's last big payday and the Falcons and Matt Ryan need him. Still some big production left in Julio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 That's a lot of guaranteed money for somebody in their 30's. There's a risk that an injury could derail his career and then the Falcons are stuck in salary cap hell. Jones is well worth the money but it's still a risky contract.

BITE ME Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 He deserved to be the highest paid WR in the NFL. He produces and is a team player. I rather pay him that type of money than a RB like Elliot. Elite Receivers are tough to get, as we have seen in Buffalo for a decade now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Good for Julio. He’s a great player and a consummate pro. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Goat Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 He's the one stud vet WR I wanted on the Bills. Deserves every penny -- not only for his talent, but for the fact he's a team guy and not a cancer like AB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the perfect example of a team player that does his job and keeps his mouth shut. Go out and ball, stay out of trouble and the rewards will follow with little resistance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
