Life IS fun, except to those it isn't fun for. It's either a :andy: or a :paul:

Their status as dual threats and their college program systems, respectively, made scouts not believe their eyes (same thing happened with Jackson). I don''t know if there's a QB with that pedigree in this draft. Obviously, judge the players once we know more information but if this QB class is:
Burrow

Herbert

Tua (injured, may never play again)

Other QBs that each have their own question marks
Do you trade down and hope you get Herbert when you have Burrow sitting right there?
He didn't put up elite numbers last year, but he still led the Tigers to a 10-3 record. Because he was behind OSU's QBs for the first two years of his career, it was essentially his 'freshman campaign.' He was a 4 star recruit coming out of high school and one of the top QBs coming from Ohio.
I wish he had one more year to show this year isn't a one hit wonder, but given how elite he has looked this year, with essentially no weaknesses in his game makes me believe that this year isn't a mirage. He's got the size, the accuracy, the arm strength, the decision making, the ball placement, the mobility while retaining the "traditional QB" tag (he doesn't rely on his dual threat capabilities)...I just think he's a slam dunk. Of course, no draft pick is a guarantee.
Bengals defense played their hearts out. Missed some big stops on 3rd down, but happens in the NFL.
Finley has a shot to make a statement, albeit with another weapon lost
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.
