Last season, on the best Adam Warren Jerseyoffense in the league, Jones led all receivers with at least 100 targets in Reception Net Expected Points per target. (You can read more about Net Expected Points, or NEP, in our glossary). He also led those 41 receivers in Success Rate, which Andre Dawson Jerseymeasures the percentage of receptions that positively impact NEP. He was second in receiving yards while he was just 18th in targets. Jones’ usage in the red zone has been Ben Zobrist Authentic Jerseya concern for fans and fantasy players alike. It’s apparently also been a concern of new Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. He recently told ESPN.com, “…when you have a player like Julio, it's making sure Billy Williams Authentic Jerseywe maximize his opportunities because there is so much double-coverage, there are so many unique coverages that roll his way that when we don't get that, let's make sure he's one of the primary receivers on that play because it is such a tough matchup for anybody one on one." Last year, Jones Blank Womens Jerseywas targeted just 10 times in the red zone. That was tied with Justin Hardy, who played on just 28 percent of the team’s offensive snaps, for the fifth-most targets inside the 20. As strange as it is to have a player that talented get so little action at such an important part of the field, what may be stranger is that Jones’ production in that area warranted his place among those ranks, although we're working with small samples here. Luckily, the Carlos Zambrano Authentic Jerseyoverall production for the team was still there in that area as the Falcons still ranked sixth in points per red zone trip and ninth in touchdowns per red zone trip. But perhaps that just makes Jones’s inability to cash in at that spot even more puzzling, and there’s plenty of puzzle to spare. |
