That's why teams try to have quality have depth as back up's in key positions. The Bengals have had a pretty good run of solid drafts, and have pretty good depth at a number of -key positions. That being said, who do you think the Bengals can LEAST afford to lose for the majority of the season,(more than say 10 games)?
It's Dalton, hands down. However, I was really hoping for depth at the WR position to be addressed with some serious speed to replace the likes of Sanzenbacher, Tate, and Little. I know they drafted Alford, but I was really hoping for someone like Devin Smith.
In other words, if any team loses their starting QB, it is usually game over. I looked at this more from the standpoint of "what did they need the most to prevent another early exit in the playoffs" and that was more talent at WR.
