How many ways is this wrong?

1. Green has never even hinted he wants out. He might just be playing the game, sure. But if Chmura knew him five minutes, he’d realize that’s not Green’s style.

2. Mike Brown would pay him what he’s worth, if he were convinced Green’s lower-leg injuries weren’t chronic. I’m guessing that’s what the rest of this year is partly about. The team’s frugality shows at other positions, i.e., offensive line. Not for so-called “skill" players. Ask Chad Johnson and Gio Bernard.

3. A “mid-round pick"? That’s laughable.

I'd say that's all accurate.

And I think the Bengals will try to keep Green. That said, is keeping Green the right call? Well I think that depends on if you feel like this team needs rebuilt or not. And it's hard to make a case that they don't.

But, for all we know...maybe MB thinks this team is 4-2 with Green.
