Livings, Collins, Andrews, all late round or UFA guys who were given big deals to go elsewhere and not play well.
Kyle Cook, UFA who was considered for a time to be one of the better centers in the league.
Clint Boling, 4th rounder who is a good starter.
I asked for mid-late round picks that PA developed into good starters. Braham (3rd rounder) and Bobbie (2nd rounder) wouldn't qualify.
Livings, Collins and Andrews were never considered good starters. Heck, they were mostly backups. Just because some teams goofed and paid them big bucks out of desperation doesn't mean they were considered good starting players for the Bengals.
Cook was never one of the best in the league. He was average at best and out of the league after he left. Boling is the only rock solid legit example of that bunch.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
