If someone compared Julio Jones to LeBron James based solely on their respective dominance, would you bat an eye? You shouldn't, and you won't after reading Robert Mays on Julio.
.@robertmays goes long on the remarkable Julio Jones, the NFL’s closest equivalent to LeBron. https://t.co/lRg7Y4CSlf

This is a phenomenal read from the new Bill Simmons site for many reasons, but as its core it tells you a little more about who Julio Jones is. He's a genuinely reserved, quiet person in the body of an NFL superstar, and he's more or less been that way since high school. The Falcons also A) have absolutely no regrets about the trade, per Thomas Dimitroff and B) are just enjoying watching Julio quietly destroy everyone en route to the Hall of Fame career he appears to quietly (but very badly!) want. Please read the article to see what I mean.
I look forward to seeing what 2016 brings for Julio Jones, but as the article suggests, continued greatness is probably on the horizon. We'll take it.
