To be honest I really never watched Klingler.

I was living in Colorado during Klingler's time with the Bengals and there was no internet, so you couldn't just stream any game or watch replays  whenever you want.

I don't know how far Palmer could throw a football just like I don't know how far Aroldis Chapman could throw a baseball.  But Palmer could throw the ball as hard as anyone.  He could throw a 15 yard out pattern all the way across the field on a rope. And I remember watching him with the Cards when I though he was supposed to be old and beat up.  He still had that big arm.

Since I don't recall watching Klingler I can't say he wasn't better.  But if his arm was better than Palmers then i understand why we took a first round flyer on him.
