AJ Green will have two to five yards on his guy then Andy throws it and AJ has to slow down to catch it Green makes Dalton look way better than he is you know how many more yards and TDs Green would have if Andy would throw it 5 more yards down field????!!!!!!
What do you think would happen with a way faster receiver????

Quote:4. Andy Dalton, Cincinnati Bengals

The urgency to get the ball downfield to A.J. Green started early in the season, and has not slowed down for Andy Dalton through eight weeks. He’s currently second in deep-passing yards, with 697, as 56 percent of his deep-throw completions have found Green, who’s shown to be the game’s best deep-ball threat this season (first in deep-receiving yards, with 379). Dalton has been efficient on his 39 attempts, sitting in the top 10 in both adjusted completion percentage on deep passes, at 51.3, and quarterback rating, at 120.4. Ken Zampese’s aggressive play calls to push the ball vertically have Dalton tied for the sixth-highest deep-attempt percentage, at 13.5. What’s been most impressive, though, is that Dalton has done all of this without the presence of a true No. 2 receiver. Having a healthy Tyler Eifert back in the mix—with the tight ends’ ability to stretch the field from a number of positions—will help this offense attack in ways it would prefer to, as it appears the unit will need to carry the load down the stretch for a defense that is currently struggling.

It's not easy to find the numbers, but here's a PFF article from the midway point last season that lists Dalton as the 4th best deep passer in the NFL, using stats as proof:

Amazing that Green was leading the NFL in deep yardage with a QB that "underthrows him most of the time".

Any player drafted top 10 should be polished enough to start day 1, if he's not, give me the guy who is. Even if it's a different need or position.

So it looks like we have a stand off. Me and Milksheikh vs you and BengalDude. Where are we meeting to settle this like men? 

The parking lot it is.

cause his speed is the fastest ever recorded and he can run good routes and catch the ball. He is not just speed. This guy will
give DB's problems in the NFL, he is so fast sometimes you cannot even see his fakes in real time.

The parking lot it is.

Guess playing against inferior players just made him look that much faster eh?

Just seems much more dynamic than Mike who relies on just going up for the ball.

Ross is my top receiver in this draft though for us as you can tell.

I don't think it's necessarily an arm strength issue.  I've seen Andy overthrow Green as well.   But he tends to underthrow him.

He could be fast, but it sure seems weird everyone doesn't seem to care. Mike Williams may not have looked as fast on tape, but then again he was playing 1st round corner backs every week not guys who will be selling cars in May. By the way while Mike Williams is very good at high pointing the ball, his best route is a slant and he does that very very well. In comparison many of Davis's best plays were post routes against Low level D1 school slot corner backs. Both may be good, but people sure do like to look over Davis's issues.

I watched five games of tape for both, I prefer Williams in general and don't want either for the Bengals.
