Something I haven't seen discussed, and why I think AJ Green is a little underrated right now.

Right, okay. I won't argue that he has done what those others have done, but he also hasn't been in the same situation at they have.

I think you have to remove Brown from the equation, because he's put up absurd volume despite being in a system with relatively deep talent. That offense is going to put up numbers in the extreme and as long as he stays healthy, he should be the #1 pick simply because he's likely to be the most consistent guy out there. The loss of Bryant for the whole season makes Brown even more intriguing as a pick, although it may not may not matter.

So, you are basically asking, is it reasonable to think that Green might surpass either Jones or Beckham in production? Well, I don't want to make it sound like I'm out here betting any significant amount of money on this or anything. I'm merely providing a hypothetical, which I think is reasonable, as to why he might.

Beckham? Yes. Absolutely. 1,450 is a pretty damned good number of yards, but it isn't ground breaking in recent memory. But I would argue that he was able to do that in large part thanks to being fed because they had a very weak receiving corps overall outside of him. That hasn't necessarily changed though this year, so he could easily have similar results, except for the fact that he has now earned constant double team status, which he had only intermittently last year. There is also the possibility of a healthy Victor Cruz cutting into his production, although that's probably a bit fat fetched at this point.

Jones, for sure, still has the capability to be a top 3 producer.
