I mean, what happens if he has a break out season next year, catches 7 TDs and gains 1000 yards and has several key blocks? I'm in no way predicting that's gonna be the case, but one rookie season of little to no production doesn't carve anything in stone other than that washed out season.. Personally I hope he has the best season any TE has ever had for the Bengals. That doesn't mean I think it's gonna happen. It only means I hope it'll happen.
Even if he turns out to be halfway decent, that doesn’t negate the fact that they massively reached for him. He could have been had two rounds later. I don’t believe the bs about other teams supposedly being interested that early.
