Eh, Howard wouldn't have made that big of a difference this year.
The bengals added a lot of speed on defense the last 2 years and that is paying a good return on investment.
They tried with the OL two years ago, but they should have at least retained whit on the tag for one year to allow the young guys to develop... more.
I'm just tired of our first round pick not contributing in the first year, regardless of position. Luckily this year we got a few players in later rounds producing at high levels. But the last first round pick to really contribute year 1 was Green/zeitler (and I guess eifert)
I just hope ross is healthy after the bye and can do for the bengals what hill does for the cheifs. 1-3 carries, and catch 4-6 balls a game. But all the motioning that hill does in KC keeps defenses and edge rushers on their toes.
