Here's how we graded the Titans and Falcons for the Julio Jones trade
Julio Jones, less than two weeks after declaring his desire to leave Atlanta, has found a new team as the Titans acquired him via trade with the Falcons. The seven-time Pro Bowl receiver will join a Titans team that is looking to take the next step following consecutive playoff appearances. And while the Falcons had to say goodbye to one of the franchise's all-time greats, they did receive a decent amount of trade capital. All told, the Falcons got the Titans' 2022 second-round pick and a 2023 fourth-round pick, while the Titans received Jones along with the Falcons' 2023 sixth-round pick. Here's how we graded each team for the trade that has created a lot of buzz on what otherwise would have been a sleepy Sunday in the NFL's offseason.More Related News
