Ross’s 5th Year Option Declined
#34
Barring an injury to Green, I see no way of him posting any significant numbers.

Your WRs in terms of reps/targets most likely goes: 1.) Green 2.) Boyd 3.) Higgins

Then you have to account for the potential amount of PT that Auden Tate has earned as well. This isn't to say that Tate automatically sees more looks or time, but only that he's deserving of consideration in the mix.

Even if you move Ross ahead of Higgins, or as a specialty role of sorts, the position group is too muddled to allow for some of the numbers referenced (800-1000 yards). It's simply not happening without a total dud of a season from the top 3 I listed above.

I would have loved to move on from AJ and used that money elsewhere. I think Boyd, Higgins, Ross, and Tate would have been an adequate corp, that would allowed for growth and future scouting and planning. And maybe Ross could've developed into a legit WR, maybe not. But I think that chance is gone from happening here.

Not picking up the option is a no-brainer regardless of AJ. It wasn't happening either way. But if you wanted him back at 18 mil, which many did, then you essentially buried Ross chances.

Ross would most likely be cut now if not for dead money (5 mil). I suspect he'll be buried on the chart, and would be amazed if he sniffs 400 yards.
