He's still miles from what a top 10 pick should do for the team.

 

How is it relevant in 2019 when Ross was drafted in 2017?

Ross needs to be better than those he competes against on the Bengals roster and win a job. If he wins a job, then compete in practice to be active and play in games. His contract is guaranteed in 2019 (all 1st round picks get guaranteed contracts now) so he is a 10 million dollar dead cap hit. Point is money is not in the equation versus free agents or late round picks, if he is cut, we still pay him.

Yes, we all want a 1st round pick to produce, but in the end, we want someone to step up whether it be like a TJ. Hous. years ago or Ross this year. If Ross gets cut, we may get a better receiver, we may not, but we don't save any money.
