NFL Draft Analysis - WR AJ Green

There’s not much debate around Green as the number one wide receiver in the 2011 NFL Draft. Yes, Alabama’s Julio Jones is also an exceptional athlete but isn’t quite on the level of Green.

Which isn’t to say Jones isn’t a fantastic player - really it’s a matter of apples to oranges as they are very different receivers in many ways. Figure in the fruit analogy, both are high quality and either one would be great for your team.

As always, you can expect some growing pains with a rookie wide receiver. Still, Green is a smart player and I have no doubt that he will contribute early on in his NFL career.
