Just because you spend a draft pick on a guy doesnt mean he can simply be coached up to become a good player. Myles Murphy was a 1st round draft pick and you have some people say Lou didnt coach him up. The problem might just be Murphy isnt all that good and cant be coached to become good. When Murphy was drafted it was pointed out how mediocre he was in college at rushing the passer. Murphy was never a dominant pass rusher but yet some people expect he should be. Why? Why wasnt Jackson Carman coached up? Why wasnt Volson? Why isnt Burton being coach up? The reality is the Bengals have the smallest scouting department in the NFL and they tend to have a lot of misses with their draft picks. That's not an excuse, that is reality.
