Anything less isn’t worth the money. I guess it’s better than signing him to a long term guaranteed contract. I just like signing guy for projected future stats vs. past stats. Also, you should factor in a little of what have you done for me lately. I’m not excited about it at all.
I agree mostly, I have mixed feelings about it. Like you say if we get 2015 AJ it'll be worth it. But over the last four seasons he's averaged like 10 games and 50 receptions. At 32 can he really return to that form given the injury history ? AJ will always be one of my favorite Bengals but I'm just nervous about paying him high end WR pay all things considered, like all our other needs,
