Over/Under 5 catches for John Ross this season

[BengalChris]

I'm going to say over.

But I still don't believe Ross was worthy of a top 10 pick, nor do I believe he's capable of being a #1 WR in the NFL.

At Washington, as a WR, he was a one year wonder. His total 4 year college production was 1,729 yard on 114 catches for an average of 15.2 yards per reception and 22 TDs. Of those numbers, 81 catches, 1,150 yards and 17 TDs all came last year.

Now that's a good yards per catch number and the TDs were great last year.

But if we take into account that he was playing in the Pac 12, where defense is optional, I have to wonder if Marv isn't right.

Ross can't beat out LaFell, undrafted Erickison, 4th round rookie Malone or last year's 2nd round pick Boyd.

Now - there is one thing that Ross did do consistently in college that might help the Bengals and that's as a kickoff returner where he returned 86 kicks for 2,069 yards and 4 TDs. That's in his 4 year career, one of which he didn't play due to injury, which is another knock against picking him so high.
