I would not call Tate another AJ Green anymore than I would call Finley another Peyton Manning.  

We will have Boyd, Tate and Ross going into 2020, but do you stand pat with the same 1-11 players ???  Due to no Green or Ross, Boyd has been the #1 and Tate the #2.  The team is struggling at #3 and #4 packages of others to get open and make plays.  

I will say this for Taylor, he took over one big mess in Cincinnati.  So many weaknesses on this team that have been piling up since 2015. The O Line needs help.  The Defense needs help.  The WR's need help.  Not enough draft picks for all the weaknesses, and yet many think all this team needs is a new QB, WRONG.  I'll be honest, with all these weak areas, they don't have the luxury of a QB pick.   Which is why ALL MY BENGALS will probably go the Akili Smith route all over again.  This Front Office never learns.

I like Tate, but it is a far reach to say he is a #1 WR and even more to say he is another Green.  However I give him credit for playing. Tate took a heck of a hit in Oakland and he came right back, and Bengals could use a few more players that want to play this game, agents be d#mned.

I don't think there's a single poster on here who's said or thinks that ? Ok maybe one ?

But anyways where is it written in stone if you draft what you hope is a future franchise QB who says he has to play from day 1 ??? I remember well the age when rookie QB's held clipboards for 2, 3, or more seasons. And no I'm not saying we should go back to that. Either hire a vet bridge QB or keep Dalton. However:

It's time

I feel this team needs to move on from the Dalton/Green era, just like ML. AJ will always be high on my list of favorite Bengals. But I, like others have said, am just at the point where him staying is neither here nor there to me. I wish him luck !
