Give me your dark horse and your dud for 2018

Actually, the Bengals knew Bryant's knee (not ankle) was bad and gambled on the chance that his offseason knee surgery would help return him to form.  It didn't and the rest is history.  Bryant's knee was going bad before the 2009 season with the Bucs as he had preseason arthroscopic surgery on the same knee, which more than likely led to his poor stats for that year. 

Either way, the FO gambled on him and lost.  Not sure how the medical staff could've predicted how his knee would respond.  This one is on Mike Brown for the poor contract terms.
