What if Jackson Carman magically worked out at LG and he was just a late bloomer?

A. Carman magically turns it on in camp and unseats a current starter on the OL?

B. As the article suggests, he gets cut.

Seriously, it would be great if the light went on for Carman.  But if it hasn't happened by now....

It's definitely not trending the right way for Carman.
Carman's played 10% offensive snaps or less each of the past 2 years.
My general rule of thumb is draft picks get 3 years to make an impact.
If you haven't done it by then, you're not going to on the team you're on.

Carman's best hope is stay on the roster as a depth piece and then go to a new team after his contract ends next offseason and hope to emerge as a starter there.
But he's out of the picture for the Bengals.
