Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Roddy White's Post-Week 10 Fantasy Reaction

Timothy RappNov 9, 2014

In the not-so-distant past, the Atlanta Falcons had one of the league's most prolific passing attacks, and fantasy owners of Matt Ryan, Julio Jones and Roddy White reaped the benefits. These days, not so much. 

While Julio Jones has to be considered a WR1—albeit a streaky one—both Ryan and White have become increasingly difficult to trust.

Jones will give you ups and downs. For the first five weeks of the season, he never dipped below eight fantasy points and reached double digits three times, including a 28-point game. Then he went three straight weeks with six or fewer points. And now he has exceeded double digits once more. 

Jones is a bit unpredictable, sure, but generally you are either getting decent or great, so he's worth keeping in those starting lineups.

While White did reach the end zone on Sunday, he's now gone for double-digit points just four times on the season. In Atlanta's other five games this year, he's offered fantasy owners a total of 16 points. While Jones gives you decent or great, White has generally been either terrible or great. He's still a flex consideration every week, but nothing more.

As for Ryan, he's settling in as a great QB2 but a pretty risky QB1. After notching 30 points in Week 1 and 23 in Week 3, he's yet to reach 20 fantasy points again for owners (though to be fair, he did have 19 in Week 4). He's generally been a decent option for owners, sure, but at a deep position he simply hasn't offered enough great weeks to be trusted as a QB1 each and every game.
