AJ if he can stay healthy. I think he has the potential to be absolutely dominant if he can get someone to throw him the ball besides that ginger from TCU.

Alshon Jeffery.

But Really. AJ Green.

Blackmon gets to put up his Numbers against weaker defenses, and had a year of being Helped by Holgorsen's Air Raid offense.

I think I know UGA fan's opinions on Bobo.

Blackmon is a great big play threat but AJ has some of the best ball skills I've seen.

The Georgia guy is correct with his pick so no need to blast him.

Dez has more talent than both

AJ is better than Blackmon

Blackmon needs to clean up his routes, he's huge though

It hard to say bc in college the QB just throws it up and the WR beats the DB. In the NFL the QB zings it to the route and the WR has to make the proper break, catch the ball and take a hard hard lick.

I bet 95% of the people that said AJ Green haven't watched Blackmon play a half of football. Let alone a full game.

AJ is more athletic and has better ball skillz. Blackmon is just a beast, and freaking huge. Pick your poison I guess, might side more towards AJ's athleticism though

In the NFL I side more towards a WR who can take a hard lick from a LB or SS and hold onto the ball. AJ seems a little too thin to hang with the likes of Ray Lewis and LaRon Landry

He's still bigger than majority of NFL receivers

Yeah, but I dont see him working out as the #1 WR, which means he will not get the post post routes, he will have to cross and take hard hard licks from guys who hit harder and weigh more than he does

Green, also one of my favorite college players over the last 5-10 years so im bias.

Blackmon is unbelievable, offense helped him a lot...which one cant knock him for.
I just like Green because he looks so smooth/effortless.

wasnt Blackmon not even top 50 WR in HS?
scouts nailed it!
