I do think the talent gap between Green and Wilson is smaller than the talent gap between Wilson and Dalton. That's just my opinion, and your mileage may vary.
Substitute Jordan Matthews, or Allen Robinson for Quick and the "trade" gets a bit more interesting. The caveat on all this would be look what Wilson has already done with inferior receivers. Hardin only played two meaningful games, Tate was pushed into a WR1 role with WR2 talent, and the rest of Seattle's receivers are role players. Yet, despite that, Wilson puts up pretty good numbers in a run first offense. A Bengals receiving corps with Quick instead of Green profiles similarly to what Seattle had last year. If Jones and Eifert are healthy I'd give the talent edge to Cincy. Quick has a good deal of potential, and has flashed it, but was slow to pick up the NFL game and then got hurt.
If I'm not mistaken the reason Quick is mentioned is because he'll become a free agent next year. Those two obviously won't.
Malcolm Floyd would be another option.
