There's some guys still on rookie contracts, there's a couple guys on 1 year prove-it deals, and a couple more who are vets making less money now.

But there's still 15 WRs making at least $10m/yr right now. (And there's not really 32 #1 WRs in the NFL, even if there technically has to be.)

Ross, Core, and Malone COULD all be this player, but sadly their lacks of ability or football skills prevents them from being so. Just like Binns, Whalen, Tate, Wright, Hamilton, Sanu, Briscoe, and every other of the many Bengals WRs who never lived up to the hype because they simply weren't very good.

Damn I wish we still had the old boards so we could dig up some threads in the 2012 offseason about how hyped some people were about the AJ Green/Armon Binns duo.

I completely disagree.  They had all offseason to work on their stupid game plan paperwork and get these guys in to the fold.  You think JuJu Smith-Schuster was a better prospect and more game ready than Ross?  Nope.  He just has better coaching.  Any other team would have these guys on the field, instead of the bench.  We like sucking ass at offense and leaving our biggest threats in the locker room.
