I haven't heard a peep about this guy. Is he already hurt, and I don't know it?

He's not very good, which I've been trying to tell you people since we picked him.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.

Whoooah, hang on a minute! He's a slow immobile big linebacker. He's perfect for the Bengals!!

Well, you're moving the goalposts now.
He is all of those things.

He played the entire 4th quarter on Saturday, next to Dawkins.

It's as if every single one of our draft picks isn't capable of being a starter...

Yeah, none of them became a star in their very first preseason game. Take them all out and shoot them.

Except Jonah...
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

if a 6th round LB comes in and is the starter we are truly in for a bad year.

Many of us are still a little sore we drafted him in the first place given better prospects were available. He is special teams at best.

Who were the better prospects? We are talking 6th round, right?

Not a lot but Nauta TE was there. Seemed like a fan favorite in some of the mocks on this Forum. Mike Weber RB but I guess Bengals felt Williams and Anderson were better. Daily OT was there but probably not a starter. I think Davis has some special team ability, has a nice attitude, grinds out plays, hits hard but has relatively low ceiling. I hope to see more of him this preseason.

Do you think the bengals should have up what the Steelers did to move up one spot to get Bush? I don’t. The bengals have plenty of holes to fill. Ol is one of those holes too.
Can we at least see what Williams and bush become a couple years down the road before we gripe about them pulling one over on us?

I have seen a ton of starts in preseason. Let's wit and he see if he is worth the 3 draft picks it took the Steelers to grab him. He may be, but awful early in his career
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

There were a lot of people on here who didn't want anything to do with the Bengals drafting Devin Bush... right up until the point the Bengals didn't draft Devin Bush.
I still think Jonah Williams end up being the better player when all is said and done.

Regarding Bush/Willaims: I'm happy with either. This is not a Ross/Mahomes/other situation. But Davis was a terrible pick - dude was the slowest LB I've seen. Plenty of other LB we could have taken a wing on.
