He needs to show that he is still healthy enough to play in the NFL without falling apart every time he gets hit.
They are desperate for a 2nd WR option. It's talked about over and over again whenever the Saints' offense is brought up.
TreQuan healthy would be interesting. Cook hasn't had a chance to connect with Brees either. Stars haven't aligned yet.
SF is quite a surprise, but far from a contender. Definitely could be the best team in the division. The Rams are definitely fake.
The Saints went through this with Rickey Jackson, fans were actually glad he landed in San Fran where he could get a ring. But I am a little surprised that's the mood there, first year offensive minded coach, give it some time. I'm not exactly sure where this speculation is coming from as there doesn't seem to be any rumor about it in Cincy or the league?
I drafted and am still holding him in a 12 redraft , start 2 wr 1 flex ppr
Yeah.....unless AJ plays, any player playing is better.....AJ playing this year is not a lock....hence my question...…..Dude.....Weebs210 said:
I agree and that's why my season is crap so far....LOL.....Can't push myself to sit them and they are killing me every week. I'm really hoping for AJ green to come back soon.
Most of the time Davis will get you the same points AJ Green is getting you while injured. He will be back in a couple weeks. If you really want to drop him trade him at least..dude.
Don't want it to be that way - the smileys on my comment brought me down a bit. Hate it as a Bengals fan.ghostguy123 said:
What do we think the asking price should be, and is it true that if he is not re-signed (by whatever team he is on to end this season) that that team will get a 3rd round compensatory pick factored into their formula for the 2020 draft? If so, a team like Green Bay/Dallas/NE/NO/Bal and maybe even KC should think long and hard about offering up a 2 to get Green for a playoff run, and then get back a 3 next year. I know that the compensatory pick formula is more complex than that and that 2019 caps need to be considered but in a vacuum this seems like a no-brainer.
More than a 3rd obv - I think I would take a late 2nd. And I would want AJ to be okay with it. I always forget the whole comp pick thing in this. And that does sweeten the pot for the other team that is true.
It seems like it makes sense on every level. From the Cincy perspective, they’re obviously not going anywhere this year so if they can upgrade that 3rd round comp pick it’s a no-brainer. For a contender giving a likely late 2 for AJ down the stretch (assuming good health) plus a late 3rd is a no-brainer. And if you’re AJ is it better to showcase yourself for free agency in Cincy with bad qb play and an awful OL or on a contending team with a presumably much better supporting offensive cast? Aside from a trade partner needing cap room is loyalty the only thing that’s stopping this? Because loyalty doesn’t get ya paid.
This...trading deadline is 10/29. Means AJ would have to play 10/27. And if I’m a team, I’d want to see what the after effects of a Sunday yielded coming off such a significant injury. Meaning that 10/20 would likely have to be the date he came back by.
Sound logic, and really hard to argue against it. A trade really does make sense for all parties. We'll see what happens in the next few weeks, but as a football fan I'm hoping a) he's healthy and b) he gets traded to a contender.
I think that it’s somewhat in the open that the business side of football is playing a large role in why he’s not back yet.
If you asked him at this moment, what percentage would he say he is, as far as health is concerned?
Haha well he would probably just say “not 100%”. Pure speculation but I’d guess he’s 90-95% and if he weren’t a pending free agent and the Bengals were 3-1 he’d be out there already. It’ll be 3 and a half weeks since he got the boot off by game time this week. And that’s not a knock on AJ because I’m a big fan of the person and the player. It makes absolute sense to sit a bit extra in this case.
Not really, trading does not really happen much in this league, half the teams will veto any trade that does not involve them, and 90% of the teams will not respond to any trade requests at all.
I am not so sure - Larry Fitzgerald is his hero and mentor (interestingly they play the Cardinals this week) and Larry has stuck with the Cardinals through thick and a good chunk of thin. It's the one hopeful part of this in terms of AJ being a lifer. Don't know if the change away from Marvin changes any of his feelings in terms of that.TheWinz said:
There should be a league format that requires trading one player every week (and never the same one twice) - spice things up.
I would, but it is the only league I am in with my dad. I am mainly in it for that reason, but it is also fairly profitable since it is big money, but only 1/3rd of the owners actually know what they are doing.
Compounding bad mistakes usually never works.
True. I’m really just venting. I’ve waited this long, it’d be pretty stupid to jump ship a week or two before I can actually realize some value from having him take up roster space for the last five weeks.
