You could have drafted pretty much anyone instead of Julio in Round 4 and been better off. But he finished the season as the WR94, with fewer points than guys like Jauan Jennings, Laquon Treadwell, Devin Duvernay, and Freddie Swain. At the time of the podcast, he was going as the first pick of the fourth round, on average. It boggled my mind that people were investing so heavily in Julio. Green - same draft year, same draft capital, similar career numbers - and no one wanted to touch A.J. I noted that he was pretty much the same player as A.J. I was down on Julio because of (1) age and (2) injury history. This may have been our best call of the season. Julio Jones is about to fall off a cliff. Specifically, we are going to focus on our RB and WR hits, which were discussed on the Hail Mary Football preseason podcasts. If we had sound process, that’s something we want to replicate for next season. We can look back at our processes, and try to figure out if we made the right call for the right reason, or if we just lucky. Now, I’d like to flip the script, and look back at some of our biggest hits from this past season. Our last column focused on all of the things we got wrong in 2021.
