Collinsworth played eight years in the NFL, all for Cincy. He had just under 7000 rec yards and just 36 TDs.

He's definitely not in front of Chad. Chad exceeded 10,000 receiving yards and 66 TDs for the Bengals in 10 seasons.
He's close to, but IMO is not in front of Carl Pickens, who also nearly 7000 rec yards but 63 rec TDs.
Same scenario when compared to Isaac Curtis, who had just over 7000 rec yards and 53 TDs.

Green is on pace to be the best (or second best) WR in Bengals history. In just his fifth season, he's already amassed 5911 rec yards and 42 TDs. He should exceed the franchise career receiving yards and TDs marks by the end of his Bengals career (contract through 2019 and might go out another year or two with another extension, giving him 10+ seasons).

So in terms of Top 5 right now, I'd probably put...
1) Chad Johnson
2) AJ Green (given current production, but could become top by end)
3) Isaac Curtis
4) Carl Pickens
5) Cris Collinsworth
