Wonder if we reached out to any teams to shop Ross. I think GB would be a great fit for him. They need someone who can stretch the field. They have the line to give Rodgers time to push it down field. Talk about giving this kid every opportunity to succeed. Boom or bust in GB.
What team would you reach out to for a trade. If any would even be interested in him.

Ross doesnt deserve another chance. He had 4 (year) chances under 2 different coaches.

Doesn't make sense to trade him when AJ and Tate are nursing injuries.

This thread title led me to believe a trade partner was found for Ross.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins

We need someone who can create separation and yards after catch. Off of play action. Catch those intermediate throws and take them to the house.
This offense may not be a stretch the field offense in the deep ball sense. If that's what you are saying.

I think too much is put on speed when it comes to wideouts. Ross would do good with a big armed QB, and there's someone who would trade for him and that speed in the right offense if the FO tried.

This is like trying to take advantage of someone in your fantasy league...

We're getting blitzed on play action though. It doesn't matter who we have. There is a proverbial fatal flaw on our team.

Thinking Ross could have 1 good game here in 4 years and then go to another team and be good is just about the meanest thing that could be said about the Bengals.

Saints, Bucs, Colts...teams with old QBs make sense here. They may be willing to roll the dice on a wild card like Ross. Maybe in the right system where he just runs end arounds, drags, and go routes he could give you a splash play from time to time or at least drag DBs deep.

Who wants to give up something for a WR who can't even get on the field for a team that has one win?

He get's killed off of play action. No one respects the run game enough for it to be effective.

It'd be fitting.

I can't really see anyone trading for him when he has been a healthy scratch and the entire league knows he'll be available without having to give up a pick soon enough.

If we do trade him we better not push for anything less than a 3rd and a 5th. Or maybe their starting RG.

LOL @ half mary.
Presumably this is for noodle armed QBs (rather than Rodgers) who can't reach the end zone and can only get their desperation pass half way down the field.
