I voted to let him play before I saw that the trade option was for a first round pick.
If we can get a first round pick for green we should trade him. He is already at the age where WRs start to decline evennif they are healthy, and Green has been out of action for almost 2 years with injury.
If he was a free agent he would be the kind of guy I would give a one year "prove it deal" for a few million like Eifert got last year. No way I would pay a guy like that $18 million guaranteed just to see if he can play.
And I have ALWAYS been a big fan of AJ Green. As a SEC fan I saw him play a lot in college. Taking him with our first pick in 2011 instead of reaching for a QB changed the course of Bengal history. And he has been nothing but a class act all the time he was here. But he is just too old and too injured to get paid that much this year.
