I expect Green to be at that level where he'll always be able to put up numbers assuming his QB is competent. If he has the right QB he'll be able to put up 1,500 yards, otherwise he'll be a solid 1,000+ contributer, even with someone like Grossman throwing to him. He is one of the rare talents that won't be completely dependent on being drafted to a team with a Peyton Manning or Phillip Rivers to produce.

Personally Green is the only receiver I'm really interested in drafting during day one. Otherwise we're better off looking at QB's and 3-4 front players (OLB's and DL's) for our first two picks.

Here, watch these cherry picked highlights and fall in love with the wonder that is AJ Green


As for St. Louis, NFL Network was talking about how they're worried about being pegged with Julio Jones because they think other teams will notice that he's a good fit and jump them.
