I expect the coaching changes to give Dalton a new lease on his Bengals life

I do too.....that's why, for me, a guy like Bridgewater is the only one that makes any sense.  If a team gambles on him, I think he will take a cheap deal to get another crack at starting.  He was never impressive, as you noted, but he made smart decisions at Louisville, and is as tough as they come. We didn't really get to see what he could have developed into at the NFL level. He also played while AP was the feature on the Vikings offense, but he's never gonna be a 5500 yrd, 40 TD machine.

Agree with you both.  Jackson was a reach in the 1st, in my opinion.  He may go on to develop into a solid starter, but at the moment, he's got a ways to go.
