NFL Draft 2011 Round 1 #6 Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones

The Falcons trade up with Cleveland. NFL.com says- NFL.com says-

Jones has the prototypical build to become a No. 1 receiver. A vertical threat due to his height, strength, leaping ability, and speed. Generates big plays after the catch on screens and crossing patterns because of his physicality as a runner. Flashes outstanding hands and ball skills, will make the highlight grabs and haul in passes well outside his frame, but also struggles with bouts of drops. Needs to shore up his hands and route-running to develop into a consistent chain-mover at the next level. Plays aggressively, will go over the middle and block. A foot injury hasn’t hindered Jones’ upside, and he is projected to be a mid first-round pick.”>Jones has the prototypical build to become a No. 1 receiver.

Jones cost the Falcons alot of draft selections and he has a case of the drops. This pick has big bust potential.
