Would've been hard NOT to consider Rudolph there. It was a great value. I wouldn't automatically assume that considering Rudolph in the 3rd = no confidence in Dalton though. For one example, the Pats took Mallet in the 3rd round of the 2011 draft. I think the Bengals enjoyed having that chip (McCarron) in their back pocket. It was a nice backup with some trade value.
Rudolph would've been a better version of that.
