I'm willing to give them one year to get acclimated, but a 1st rounder should have the talent and capacity to catch on quickly.
If they don't, they shouldn't have been taken that early.

Burrow & Chase were literally no brainer gifts.

Murphy, Jonah, Dax.... Not a single special thing they do between em, PERFECT fit for the Bengals FO. 3 JAGs.... Just A Guy. It's like Duke's looking for the athlete version of himself in these picks. 2% White Milk out there just towing the company line of meh.

He's no prime Chido, which was needed badly.

Being the Bengals best CB at this point is bragging about being the smartest kid on the short bus. Bengals play a zone system, the easiest CB job there is.

I'll agree with you that the D Line is also bad.

Still stings that KC got Karlaftis the pick right before us though. Those are the kind of impact players we’ve desperately been missing.

I’d personally love to have a guy other than Trey put up double digit sacks for our fans to “not be sold on.”
