The Always Underappreciated AJ Green Thread
Re: AJG injured in practice
If I own AJ and could afford to ship him off, I'd probably do it. The injuries seem to be becoming a more common occurrence for the guy.
Re: AJG injured in practice
6 to 8 weeks, should be back for Buffalo (ligament damage, no surgery)

Re: AJG injured in practice
compensation injury after compensation injury. he's getting older so he heals slower. if im an owner im selling with the spin that he'll only miss a game or two, contending or rebuilding, it don't matter, his value is still high enough to cash out. i dont doubt his work ethic, but i think the trend is now pointing down for him. as a boyd owner im a little sad since boyd was better with green on the field.

Re: AJG injured in practice
Was really liking the Bengals as a big time bounce back candidate for fantasy, especially without that loser Marvin Lewis there anymore. This puts a bit of a damper on that. I could see Green being plagued by this all season. Definite downgrade for Dalton.

How do you figure torn ankle ligaments reduce the likelihood of tearing an ACL?FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Mon Jul 29, 2019 1:05 am Honestly, as someone who only has AJG on one contender, and knowing his trade value is not worth what he can produce on the field, I'm now just glad he will be able to be in my lineup from the early part of the season on, and that he has a less likelihood of tearing an ACL or something. My intial concern was it was his toe, and although this is less than ideal, AJG is at a point in his career where training camp is not a necessity, so it's a major bullet dodged......it's just a flesh wound.

Re: AJG injured in practice
I was just giving this some more thought this morning - and wondering just how "good" Zac Taylor's scheme would need to be to get them around the hand of cards they're now holding - especially in terms of the O-line. I could see Mixon getting there on volume, but the fact remains that this offense is going to have trouble moving the ball if AJG isn't there - scoring chances will be limited, though figure Mixon gets the highest % of looks on the team when in goal-to-go.HereForTheComments wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2019 2:10 pm All of your other points, though, are good arguments against the team as a whole. I agree there. Honestly, I'm more worried about Joe Mixon because of everything that you just noted.
It would be one thing if ZT was coming in to run the McVeigh system with a good offensive line - or say, a top-5 one like the Rams have. Instead though, he has been gifted a bottom-5 OL from last year - which has now actually gotten worse thanks to these injuries.
It's going to be another year of tough sledding in Cincy...

As a Mixon owner, I have a baaaaaaaaaaaaaad feeling he’s going to get injured. Cincy seems snake bit this year already.

Re: AJG injured in practice
Same here. He's been sitting on my trade block & I've been shopping him since the 2016 offseason. No one's wanted him so he'll ride out on my team. Hopefully I can get at least a half of a year of classic AJG production this year.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Mon Jul 29, 2019 2:59 pm

Re: AJG injured in practice
Cincinnati will be a bottom 5 team this year without a doubt. Both Boyd and Mixon should be downgraded with AJGs injury. As an aside, I’ve been low on AJG for a while and think he is experiencing a career arc similar to Dez at this point. Have not been buying him anywhere.
Re: AJG injured in practice
Everyone downgrading the other 2 like AJG just suffered a career ending injury. I understand the concern, but unless he suffers a setback, he should be back to form by midseason
I will say his dynasty value has plummeted

Re: AJG injured in practice
I mean for the rest of camp, he can't really sustain an injury like that. It's the silver lining. He's a vet, and misses training camp, but now at least he doesn't suffer a season ending injury 2 weeks before the season.RB6 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 29, 2019 4:00 pmHow do you figure torn ankle ligaments reduce the likelihood of tearing an ACL?FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Mon Jul 29, 2019 1:05 am Honestly, as someone who only has AJG on one contender, and knowing his trade value is not worth what he can produce on the field, I'm now just glad he will be able to be in my lineup from the early part of the season on, and that he has a less likelihood of tearing an ACL or something.

Re: AJG injured in practice
But now instead of training, hes rehabbing. Which for someone like Green can lead to even more injuries. There is no silver lining to tearing ligaments in your ankle.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2019 7:54 amI mean for the rest of camp, he can't really sustain an injury like that.

Re: AJG injured in practice
Yeah, my point was, when he first went down, the thought is, he might be done for the year. Now it appears he will be ready for near the start of the year, which is a lot better than what could have been. Now he won't suffer an injury that's worse. At least I know I'll have AJG to put in my lineup at some point, now. It was looking like that might not be the case.Bot101 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2019 7:58 amBut now instead of training, hes rehabbing.

Re: AJG injured in practice
Just read through this post and I can't believe nobody mentioned Hue Jackson!! The Bengals 2018 season went right into the toilet between weeks 9-12 when they lost AJG, lost Dalton and gained Hue Jackson.
I don't think any fantasy stats after week 9 of last season can really be used for proof or extrapolation of Boyd's or any other Bengal's future.
