Dalton will give you solid production, but very likely will never push that elite category. Rosen was (much) more highly touted than Dalton coming out of college, so the belief is that he has a better chance at being elite than Dalton did/does. But you're right, Rosen isn't there yet and may never get there.
Blake Bortles, Blaine Gabbert, Jake Locker, Christian Ponder were all highly touted, I don't care what a guy was projected to be before he got to the NFL I only care what he is while he is here. I'd rather the Bengals stay vigilant for a guy who they believe can be a star. It's fair to say if they do trade for Rosen it means they think he can be good. You'd think Taylor knows more than us playing in the same division as him?
We will see I guess, but I just don't see it with Rosen.
