When Rex came out of college, he had the fastest short-shuttle in the entire scouting combine.  When the Bengals asked him to play Wes Welker as the scout team slot receiver, he was so good the Bengals considered altering his role.  While that didn't take place with 3rd rounder Sanu already tabbed the starting slot receiver, his role did expand in the offense.  

I'm a little surprised you took a shot at him for the Indy game.  He looked great!  The lack of complementary weapons made it difficult for Dalton, but I would take Burkhead in the slot in a heartbeat. 

He's a smart guy, elusive route-runner, and has great hands.  

I'm also more than a little surprised that folks want to waste a first round pick on a slot WR.  The Bengals need a bigger, taller, faster option to replace Jones at the "X" receiver.  

Meh, he looked decent, but he was one of those lacking weapons himself.  If he is starting, and not a role player come September, then we are in trouble......it wasn't really a shot at Rex, per se.  Armon Binns was a scout team hero too.....and I know it's a silent motion, I was referring to the lack of folks in the room outside of the padded cell where all of the hand raising *was* going on.
