Young’s career hasn’t been great? He’s got 13.5 sacks, 15.5 tackles for loss in 8 games, in addition to not playing 2nd half in 5 of those 8 games. He’s probably gonna break the osu career sack record and would have broken the single season career sack record had he not gotten suspended

A career is more than one season. A lot of college players have a great year and then end up being "meh" in the NFL.

With that said, Young was great last year too.

In his third year at Ohio St, Young is currently at 27.5 sacks with 2-5 games left in the season.
By comparison, Myles Garrett (former #1 overall pick a couple years ago) had 31.0 sacks in 3 years in college. Von Miller had 33.0 sacks in 4 years in college. Ryan Kerrigan 33.5 sacks in 4 years in college. Each had 45+ TFLs in their college careers too.
If Young can get a few more sacks and TFLs by the end of this season, he'll be right there in discussion with them as great pass rushers in college history. 
If he stayed for his senior year (although no reason to IMO), he'd likely be in contention for the most sacks in college football history (45.0 by Jaylon Ferguson).

Young is a stud and should be better than any edge rusher the Bengals have. He would create a truly fearsome pass rush with Dunlap, Atkins, Lawson, and Hubbard. However, the fans might have to prepare for another down year if offense can't get going again in 2020. 

Would fans be willing to wait until potentially 2021 for the new franchise QB if they can't find one after Rd 1 in 2020?
