I find it odd that players like DeVante Parker, who "...has never had 60 catches or 750 yards in a season..." is on the hot seat, but a guy like John Ross who hasn't had more than 210 yards isn't. It seems that the writer likes to consider dead money in contracts as the biggest motivating factor.

I did enjoy seeing Arte Burns being on the list though.

Dalton may still be back in 2020 but based on how he does this year, the Bengals might decide to draft a 1st round QB in next year's draft to replace Dalton after 2020.

As for John Ross, he's probably somewhat on the hot seat too but Parker is a couple years older than Ross. Therefore, it's assumed Parker "is what he is" whereas Ross still is viewed as having room to grow because of fewer years in the NFL. With that said, I think this is a make or break year for Ross too.
