Cardinals : AJ green signed

[Shane]

Funny a couple of people harping on this had stated earlier they hope Fitz comes back... lol

 

[dscher]

Wow, I m less optimistic then last season
Actually I have no reason to expect anything good

Good. Lower expectations tend to make life a little easier.

 

[slanidrac16]

Yeah if this was replacing Fitz as the third wr after we got a legit #2 I’d be hood with it. But this is our #2 and makes me want to vomit.

Yes. And there is no chance at Samuel or others. I’d had been happier with Perriman.

 

[Minski]

I really don’t think I’ve felt more deflated by a signing. Doesn’t exactly show building a winning franchise. So hope I’m wrong

You're not excited with a pass rush that adds JJ Watt and Chandler Jones?

 

[Proximo]

that presents a false choice that assumes there were no other options... in a FA WR class that had snd still has an array of options, none of them breaking the bank.

I agree with you. This would not be the guy I would sign, and I would have made it public already that the team was not interested in resigning Fitz.

But we aren't running the team.

 

[FB94]

Lol! Fitz gone? Are you sure? You may be underestimating Keims ability to sign older players.

Fitz will get $5 Million to make it an even $11 million between the two

Fitz for a mill or two and NOT being counted on as THE guy next to Hop is a whole, whole other story to this signing.

Once Burrow went down in week 10...... Green saw 27 targets, 12 catches for 166 yards.

In 6 games!

EEEEEK!!!!

Couldn't agree more. 2019 was an injury year. Last year on a team he didn't want to be with, he played to play. Coming here with a better team and offense, he should feast opposite Nuk

so in his last three years, he missed 7 games in 2018, missed his entire season in 2019 and basically quit on his team in 2020.

Call me crazy but that doesn’t sound like a beast in the making to me.

The only way I’m happy with this signing is if they also get Juju. -DHop and AJ outside amd Juju in the slot.

This thread is funny.

Green has a Hall of Fame level career with 7 Pro Bowls and a 15 YPC average. Has one down year with a rookie QB, a garbage O line and a bad HC and he's suddenly trash.

He might be cooked, but you certainly can't base that on last years stats.

I like Player Profiler as they have some metrics others don't have and they show that Green had 939 unrealized air yards. That's 939 yards where he was open and the ball wasn't thrown his way, or it was off target. That was #3 in the league.

The reason for that you can see in another of their metrics, Target Quality Rating. This discounts short passes and puts a rating on pass quality on deep balls. Deep passes to Green had a TQR of 4.0. That was #103 in the league.

The difference between his targets and catchable targets was 30 percentage points.

I would rather have a younger guy like Samuel but I there's no doubt Green is more talented if he still has gas in the tank.

So we allow him to come in.... reclaim his career only to get 12mm on the open market next year???? We needed a 2nd year team option

Well, it's about to get worse, because I'm pretty sure they are about to announce a big deal to keep Peterson.

 

[Billy Bob]

By all means, type something positive. I’m looking for the silver lining in signing a guy that was great but that’s a few years ago and looked awful last year.

Why, so you can begrudge my post for being positive?

 

[DVontel]

This is the same guy that brought in Michael Crabtree cause he was a name lmaoooo!!!

lmao you said “Fitz for a million or 2” yea like never.... and there have been quite a few that Fitz should continue to play for as long as he wants even at 5-7 million due to his “leadership”

Ain’t NEVER gonna happen.

Love this signing. AJ Green is finally healthy, wants a ring, and will be playing with a chip on his shoulder. He's a bonafide #1 WR so playing as the #2 WR opposite of DHOP, With Larry legend working the middle, there is reason to be excited in AZ this year!!

 

[BigRedRage]

lol AJ Green? and bring back fitz? anyone else at retirement age on the market?

Very excited about this signing!! Congrats Cardinals!!

At least he is close to matching up with what’s out there. But AJ Green? There are literally 6-8 other receivers out there that would be better.

I know...

 

[BigRedRage]

I guess he is only 32...well. we'll see.
