Bengals give out more 3rd contracts to players they drafted than any other team. Doubt Green will be any different...

I think we'd all agree that, despite how much I may study the draft, I'm hardly an expert, and I saw him coming a mile away.

Andrew Son Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 4 hours ago, thebandit27 said: Well, aside from the fact that a few of us (namely @GunnerBill and myself) had Anderson rated as a 3rd round pick and subsequently had to watch the whole league pass on him, some folks recognize that he's actually a very good football player. Compare Enunwa and Anderson in 2018: Anderson started one fewer game, but had close to 30 more targets, 12 more receptions, 300 more yards, 5 more TDs, and averaged 8.0 yards per target compared to Enunwa's 6.6. The two weren't even close in terms of production; Anderson was clearly the better player. How would you compare Robert Foster's and Robbie Anderson's rookie years?

Pretty similar; Anderson didn't get on the field as much since the Jets had pretty solid players in front of him in Enunwa and Marshall, but--like Foster--he showed big-play potential and became a reliable target by the end of his rookie year.

Interesting that Anderson played in 16 games starting 8 and got 78 targets. Catching 42 for 587 yards and 2 TD's. Compare that to Fosters 13 games with 3 starts and 44 targets. Catching 27 for 541 yards and 3 TD's. I'd say Foster was more impressive. 1

LSHMEAB Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Anderson is a "threat." He has some games where he does nothing, but he'll break your back when he goes off. He's not a guy you feed the ball to on 8 yard sticks like an Enunwa. I'm partial to "threats" when it comes to WR's. Anderson>>>>>Enunwa. It's silly to think otherwise. I would hate to see the Jets acquire Green. Why the H*** not US? Also HIGHLY doubt Anderson would be part of any such deal. If that were that case, I'd be fine with it other than the fact that we should be trying to acquire top end skill players. Edited April 19, 2019 by LSHMEAB

LSHMEAB Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Just now, ScottLaw said: The fact that fans here actually want the Jets to make this trade put of their GM being "desperate" is down right laughable. Its just blind homerism that's typical on OBD.? Look at the stupid Browns trading for OBJ! The fact that it made the Browns better will really only sink in when the Bills face them this year. Cognitive dissonance at it's finest.
