Welcome Erick All!

Maybe the FO is smarter than you and me.

Arguing from a position of authority or, "Appeal to Authority" as it's technically called, is a logical fallacy and for dumb people. I'm not sure it's great advice to ever just blindly accept that type of thinking or discussion style.

Duke reminds me of an ex girlfriend of mine who would always stop at the discounted food carts at Kroger and rummage about through the expired food thinking she was outsmarting everyone and getting a great deal. It had nothing to do with money. She just couldn't help thinking she was getting something on the cheap. It was exciting to her... and super tacky to me. A waste of 5 minutes. Leave that for people who need those deals so they can eat. THAT is DUke Tobin on these guys. He thinks he's outsmarting everyone and getting maximum value. He's buying a wrecked car with a salvage title thinking if he fixes it, it's just as good as a new one. IT ISN'T.

If the Bengals had way more information and could actually do a great job making decisions with it, then they wouldn't have all of these early & mid round draft picks - the not so obvious ones (Burro & Chase) are the outliers - bust out of the league or grossly underperform their draft position.

FACT: The list of Bengals "project players" (injured or character concerns) who didn't live up to their draft selection/status is IMMENSELY larger than the ones that did - regardless of their level of information over anyone else's.
