A.J. Green did not get to realize his dream on Saturday. Seven rounds came and seven rounds went and he never saw his name roll across ESPN’s ticker. He never received that congratulatory phone call from an NFL general manager.
All in all, 26 cornerbacks were drafted including five in the seventh round. Green was projected as high as the fourth round in some mock drafts.
Just days after the passing of his father, Green did not get to experience what would have been a small amount of reprieve from his loss.
Shocked. But I’mma stand on this.
