10) Julio Jones
There are so many talented receivers still out there but Jones gets the nod here as another of those young, talented receivers that have been coming of age in recent seasons. Jones produced nearly 1,200 yards in 79 catches last season and is now entering his third season with Matt Ryan and the Falcons. As mentioned before, Roddy White can still play, and Tony Gonzalez forewent retirement for another year, so Jones still has competition for balls thrown his way but his 16.2 average yards per catch so far in his career shows he can really stretch defenses. He also caught 10 touchdowns a year ago and is a very dangerous receiver. If you prefer youth to experience grab Jones instead of White. You won’t go wrong either way.
There are a number of receivers who were in serious consideration for this list including Wes Welker, Victor Cruz, Larry Fitzgerald, and Vincent Jackson. The hardest to leave off was Welker. Any of these guys should be able to help your fantasy team but that top 10 will supply a lot of production.
