It would be nice if he could stay healthy but I didn't understand the reason to take a risk with a top 10 pick when he was drafted and I still don't understand it now. So many reports that a lot of teams had him flagged for his injury history and he would slide to the 2nd round due to that right before the draft took place, and yet the Bengals took him in the top 10....it made no sense.
Agreed. I hate the pick, but he's a Bengal now so I hope he stays healthy and becomes a pro bowler. I will root him on every game but he has to show he can contribute first. It just seems like anyone who disagrees with the Ross pick is anti Bengal, or wants to see a guy get hurt.
