AJ Green was just 27 and in the middle of his contract. Ross didn't have the profile of a #1 receiver either. More of a semi-one dimensional deep threat like Will Fuller. It was such a blatant reach on draft day and proved to be such throughout his career. I still cringe at the idea of that selection. I remember I was driving home the night of the draft and listening to it on the radio. They said "And with the 9th pick in 2017 NFL draft, the Cincinnati Bengals select John...." And I thought "...athan Allen? Great pick!" before Goodell finished with "...Ross, WR, Washington."

I'm just glad that pick is behind us. Hopefully we never pull a Raiders move like that ever again haha.

Typical Mike Brown pick.

Take the flashy guy that you think will sell tickets and be a superstar because of his speed and just ignore the actual team needs.
