What's Next for Julio Jones?
NFL

Being drafted in 2011 to the Atlanta Falcons from the University of Alabama, a lot is expected from Julio Jones. With his superb athletic ability, speed and extreme willpower to win the game, Jones has so much ahead of him in his nxt few years of his career.

Jones has reached a career high of 1,871 receiving yards, coming extremely close to 2,000 receiving yards. Reaching a career high of 2,000 receiving yards is a milestone that has not been achieved by anyone in the NFL.

However, many critics believe that this will not benefit the team as a whole and will only be a personal milestone for Jones. It is believed that this milestone will not benefit the team concerning wins and losses, but will only help Jones become an even bigger star in the NFL. Although this is not a bad thing, it is not a good thing either.

Kyle Shanahan, offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons describes this situation as something that should be "spread around a little bit more balanced."

Many fans of the alcons disagree with this allegation, seeing that since Jones has been drafted in 2011, the Falcons have changed tremendously with the new vision, new players and even some new staff. Jones will still have the same focus in mind, to be a team player and to help bring his team to the playoffs in the 2016-2017 season. This will be one of the many other things on his list to accomplish this next season, but this is on a more personal level.

Nothing is impossible, but will definitely be difficult. Shanahan also states, "But if we were committed to get him 2,000 yards, I mean, Julio can do that. That isn't necessarily a good thing, though, when it comes to wins and losses." The main goal of the staff of the team is to bring the Falcons up together, and on an individual basis later.

"He's a stud and is capable of making so many plays that if it were to happen it'd be awesome." Atlanta Falcons Quarterback Matt Ryan says about his teammate Jones. Jones will always have the support of his teammates and fans, and without a doubt anything can be done with their support and reassurance.

The talent of three-time pro bowler Julio Jones is completely indescribable. With this new achievement and milestone this will put Jones at a completely different level in the league.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
