Geno Atkins Not on the block

[reuben.ahmed]

Why are we expecting Geno Atkins to exceed expectations? he's on the other side of his career, he's injured, and he's underperformed the last couple years. We don't handle asset value very well, we don't make good trades, that's fine because most teams don't...but it also explains the position we've been in the last 30+ years. For instance, we won't get much for AJ at this point. It's hard to get trade prospects when he basically did nothing in 2 years and we had a new QB coming, maybe it wasn't predictable.

I don't always agree with cowherd, but if you're hovering in the middle you're not doing yourself any favors, either win the superbowl or be in last place to draft your changes.

Joe Burrow is our future, Geno Atkins and AJ are our past. We need to build for the future, we're not "close" to anything given last year's record and this year's.
