AJ hasn't been productive for a season and a half, though.

Another issue is that you're projecting AJ's production based on what he has done almost entirely in Jay Gruden's offense with Andy Dalton at QB.  The reasons why resigning your veteran WR would be safer than bringing in an outside FA are you've seen how productive he is in your system and he already has chemistry with your QB.  AJ has never played a snap in Zac's offense or a down with Burrow.  He's no safer or riskier to maintain his level of play than the next guy, presuming good health.  However, he's injury prone and hasn't played in a year and half.
