I said that joke is old. You don't waste the #9 pick of the draft on a guy to clear space for the rest of the team. You certainly don't also pay them $5.5m a year if that is the main thing they contribute to the team.
Since you want to argue something I never even addressed, here's a question for you. Look at these numbers
3 seasons + 2 games of 2020 - 51 rec, 733 yds, 10 TD
2 seasons + 1 game of 2020 - 44 rec, 644 yds, 1 TD
After looking at those numbers, would you say that either of those players were worthy of the #9 pick of the draft? Is either worth $5.5m? If you weren't a Bengals fan and didn't know which was which, wouldn't you assume they were both late round picks?
Ross gets more excuses made for him than anyone. The guy is a joke. The fact that he was taken so high should've cost someone their job.
Yup, the excuses have way past run out.
