I guess you would say the same thing for Sheldon Rankins, or Vonn bell? The bengals went out and signed these guys to come in and contribute. Outside of burrow and chase (top 5 picks), when is the last time the bengals have brought in a first round pick to REALLY contribute in year one? You could argue Myles Murphy, but he wasn’t brought in to be a starter. I think you have to go back to 2013 with Zeitler.

Mims might have won out the job, that’s possible. But that wasn’t the plan. IMO.
