Good analogy. It is interesting that you say that because I think teams that drafted WRs in the first round over the past several years were hoping to get AJ Green and/or Julio Jones, but OBJ is the only real star I have seen of late. There are solid WRs, but I haven't seen the game changers.
That is a part of why I want Ross. I see him as a game-changing play maker. I want an offense that scares the shit out of other teams. I want AJ in his prime to have awesome talent around him.
I don't see the Bengals doing it, unless someone offers them the moon and they slide, but I still see it as the best way to help our offense.
