Also the data literally says that someone with his production profile can't have a "stellar" career that why I said a solid B player. Yes I suppose he could be the 1 player at his position to do so since 2000 but the odds are against him. Why i would say yes we can say it's a bad pick. If all the chips fall right and he breaks the mold great but it's the Bengals and im not betting on it happening. The most explosive defensive player in this years draft does not have the worst tackle for loss production since 2000. I mean people who broke down his tape noted he doesnt have "pass rush moves". I mean let that sink in just a bit and realize we took a guy in the 1st rd who needs to develop pass rush moves.
Bengals issues on defense were far more than a lack of pass rush and even given that he had the opposing quarterback running for his life anytime he was in tha backfield..regardless..trashing a pick when not a single game has been played is nonsensical..you and others continue to dwell in the past when..in fact..this franchise has done remarkably wel, the past four years and had it not been to an overabundance of injuries would have gone deep within the playoffs the past two years..the difference between you and I us that I see the glass full and you see it half empty..we can have this discussion mid october and make better determinations...have a great day
