Arizona's situation was terrible. So terrible that the coach was fired after 1 season. I didn't watch Rosen a whole lot, but a rookie with the worst offensive line in the league, no WRs outside of a rookie and 36-year-old Larry Fitz, a shell of David Johnson and a coach that's unable to scheme for him is a recipe for failure. if we're not able to get one of the top QBs in this draft (if ZT wants one, that is) then I wouldn't be against offering a 2nd and trading Dalton to a team like Washington for a few mid-round picks to focus on OL.
People on this board will say the Bengals shouldn't bring in a new QB because there are more pressing needs, or because they think everyone has something against Dalton. KC probably had more pressing needs than QB and they still picked Mahomes. A lot of teams probably have more pressing needs than QB. But when you have an elite or a top 10 QB you can get away with having weak areas more so than you can with Dalton (good coaching helps too). If ZT turns on the tape and sees Rosen can be that guy, how can you be against it? The Bengals are in reboot mode anyway, Devin White and an OT aren't going to make this team a super bowl contender overnight.
