Green could be better somewhere else for sure. But he's not and because of that he's barely top ten.

Haha. That's funny.

He has similar stats to Jones and Brown, while everyone admits he can be better somewhere else (I am assuming this means statistically). To me, that sounds like a guy who has the ability to out produce both which would make him the best WR in the league..

No, he has potential.

Not top ten probably wasn't fair. But when I watch the Bengals play, it seems like AJ can disappear for stretches.

Which is more a function of Dalton's ineptitude than Green's talent level, as Green ends almost every game with the same stat line as Jones and Brown.

If Brown or Jones go to the Bengals tomorrow, do you think they are bringing their current production level with them? Or do you think playing with Hall of Fame QB's is helping them out a bit?

Who knows. The Bungles are, and most likely will stay, a team with a lot of bad attitude players. Until ownership and coaching changes, you're probably in for more of the same.

Look at Sanu. He's twice the player in Atlanta. That isn't all due to Ryan. It has as much to do with attitude as anything else.

This is my point. Green is putting up Brown/Jones type production on what everyone can agree is a dysfunctional team/organization. Is it not safe to say that if he were in a better situation he would (most likely) out perform both, making him the best WR in the league?

I suppose it's possible, but you just never know. I'd love to get him back to Georgia to find out.

Green and Randy Moss are the only two wide receivers to have over 1,000 receiving yards in their first 5 seasons in the NFL.
That statistic alone makes him a top 3 wide receiver. If I were ranking WR's, it would be, in order:

1) Antonio Brown
2) DeAndre Hopkins
3) A.J. Green
4) Odell Beckham Jr.
5) Julio Jones

I don't think he's underrated. He's certainly extremely good, and maybe his reputation is hurt by the Bengals' lack of playoff success, but I don't think he's as good as AB or OBJ.
