Just answer this question honestly, and tell me which option you would personally choose.

Which scenario sounds best to you:

A: AJ walks after the season. We get no compensation.

B: We extend a 33 yr old AJ Green until 2022 or 2023 @ 13-16 mil per seaon.

C: We acquire a 1st or 2nd round pick AJ for and invest 13-16 mil elswhere.

Please answer.

Why would a team give up a first or second round pick for a "older, expensive, injury prone" WR?

The same reason a team would give up a high draft pick is the same reason you can argue the Bengals should resign him. AJ Green is one of the better players in the league.
