If you are wrong in hindsight it means you lack foresight. An NFL FO's job is to have the foresight to select the right coaches, staff, players, etc. In this case, the Bengals were wrong.... as were most of the other teams who passed on him.
Personally, I'm not dinging the Bengals for not signing the guy (especially after last offseason where they went all in and did well - on paper). It happens. Maybe he isn't being 100% honest with the shoulder thing? Maybe he was never told it could be an issue? Who knows? I'm just not going to flip out over a missed signing 2 years later.
If someone's going to be an angry fan, be angry that they F'd up the McCarron trade, F'd up not trading Dalton, franchise tagged and/or didn't trade AJ Green, ...... messed up the paperwork on the Shaun Rogers trade, etc. etc.
^ THAT stuff is procedural, good at your job stuff.
Pretty sure the browns messed up the McCarron trade. ton of missed oppertunities to do small things that could have changed things over the years.
