He looked like he was going to be after 2013, but never recaptured or built upon that season. AJ Green was extremely good, but there's no way you're putting him in the same category as Calvin Johnson, Antonio Brown, Julio Jones. Those guys are clearly in a different tier.
You brought up 3-year stretch, but even his 3-year stretch wasn't as good as the best 3-year stretch of Demaryius Thomas, Dez Bryant, Wes Welker, Andre Johnson, or Odell Beckham who were all roughly his peers.

Now you look at Chad Johnson....
2003: 4th
2004 6th
2005 3rd
2006: 1st
2007: 3rd
...and that looks different than AJ's. Got a couple 1st Team All-Pros in there, too.
Chad was elite for sure, but there's more to WR than just yards. 2012 and 2013 AJ was elite. Top 5 receiver in both years. So ok, for 2 years AJ was elite.
he was even 2nd team all pro those 2 years. So yes, youre being dishonest
It's because you are of such profound wisdom, Frank Booth. - SunsetBengal
