If you look at South Carolina St.'s 2017 Football schedule, I really don't notice too many opportunities for him to have played against any top tier competition. I'm not saying that the kid can't play, just saying that he might need a couple years to develop to NFL caliber.
Last year, I was really big on the TE from Toledo, he had done tremendous things in college. Had good size, speed, measurable, etc. Today, I can't even tell you his name without looking it up.
There is really no way to respond to this since it applies to every player in college.
I mean, sure Saquan Barkley looks good, but just how NFL ready can he be? Sure he played for Penn State, but that was college.
It isn't really something that can be debated as it is something that we can all agree on.
The Bengals could select Daniels and Price back to back and still need a OC and OG next year or the following year.
We could've selected DeCastro and Glenn in 2012 and both could have been a bust.
Almost like when we went back to back OT with Cedric and Jake. At the time, who could hate the picks, however we now know how terrible they were ( though to me the jury is still out with Jake as his could have been his heart issue and depending on how that heals, I would give him another shot if he wants it).
A lot of should've would've could'ves in the draft.
So you know, I wouldn't hate the Daniels / Price selections. If just one pans out, we will have an improved line, and a lot of our games were lost due to weaknesses on the OLine.
