Would you trade AJ Green and Marvin + the Pats & Bengals swap 1st round picks this year for....

- Bill Belichick  and Michael Floyd?

I would say YES as long as Billy Boy signed a 5 year extension.

You wouldn't even have to throw Floyd in for me to take that deal.

We've got one of the best rosters in the AFC. We're a competent coach away from one of the team's best seasons.

We gotta retool a few thing but we aren't in rebuild mode..  still have Dalton and green and eifert on offense.

Still have a lot of talent on defense.

AJ isn't the type you trade away because he hurt his hammy.

AJ was having his best year before the hamstring tear.

I completely disagree, want to trade an Og for an AJ Green?

This is how bad it could be.
 
The draft is a crap shoot, no matter the round.

Do not throw the baby out with the bath water.

I threw Floyd in to balance the deal because since AJ is the WR equivalent to Belichick and I figured Floyd was similar to Marvin.

Fred....

Those aren't the only receivers drafted in the first round since AJ Green. Either you think people are too stupid to realize that, you're trolling (again), or you're stupid yourself. Which is it?

You could give the Bengals 3 1st Round picks in this draft and they likely won't find a player as impactful as Green.

This.   And it really applies to most teams.  You rarely find a player of Green's quality.  The road to Shanghai is littered with the number of high first round picks who did not pan out at all.

When you find a player of Green's caliber you thank your stars and build a team around him.  And for the most part we have.  We've just had an apparent failure with two high round tackles who have not panned out... which hopefully and prayerfully will resolve next year.

I never said they were the only ones drafted.

And I don't think anyone here is dumb enough to think that.

So both of your options are wrong, but just to make it clear I will edit the post.

I'd trade AJ for 5 first rounders or the entire Dallas offensive line. AJ is going to be on the decline very soon, and I don't see the bengals winning a superbowl very soon. They can't even win a playoff game. Let the man succeed elsewhere, sorry. We had our chances, the stars didn't align for even a playoff win. He may get lucky and win a playoff game here, but not a superbowl. Not with marvin lewis and J. Hlil on this roster. It only takes 1 player (Hill) to **** up the whole team (e.g. M. Nugent). AJ is becoming the next Calvin Johnson.

We haven't won a single playoff game. This team can't get it done. Mr. Glass plays half a season.

Julio would have rotted on the Browns.

What's happening with AJ on the Bengals? Wild success. Then again Julio hasn't won a superbowl either. Winning a playoff game isn't good enough.

Imagine, Julio Jones and pre-drug spiral Josh Gordon, on the same offense.  Scary...

Now we are getting more information about the hamstring injury of AJ Green. He is untradeable at this point. Nobody wants a potential career ending injury on a wide receiver. That was my point. Now we get nothing for him.

Potential career ending injury?  Histrionic much?

I don't think he would have. He and AJ were about as much of a can't miss prospect as there have been at the position lately. Sad thing is, I dont think a single player drafted with those traded picks is still on the Browns.
