What irks me is that the Bengals should have known the OL class was weak and should have tagged Whitworth to avoid any potential scenario where he would leave.

Agree completely and the Ross pick has grown on me if he can stay healthy. 

But would not have minded trading that slot and falling back to get a Cam Robinson either. 

Especially since it would have come with another high draft pick as well. Think he will be a solid player for a long time. Will know quickly though because he must try to block JJ Watt and Clowney in his first game Sunday. But think he fell through the cracks.      

Or Barnett as a pass rusher. 

Yet that was then and now am fine with what we have if Ross makes it on the field. He could add a dynamic to our offense that we may have never seen before. Exciting but frustrating at same time. 

Am a little scared that Bengals do not re-sign AJ because of this pick too.
