I see people make comments about it taking a year to learn the Bengals' system, that you can't expect a guy to come in and contribute, etc. and I just don't understand that. It's football, a game these guys have been playing their entire lives. Between all the off season workouts and training camp I would think if you've chosen the right guy, they would have no problems fitting in.
It was "basically" Hunt's rookie year for like four years, Ced's for two, Kirkpatrick's for four, Andre Smith for three, Dennard's for three, etc.
It "basically" is their rookie year until they stop sucking and excuses no longer have to be made for them to justify their lack of production based off the spot they were drafted at.
It's also why AJ Green, Andy Dalton, Carlos Dunlap, and Geno Atkins didn't "basically" have two or three rookie seasons. They had their rookie season and produced.
