what makes him not good, when he's barely played? People could have said a similar thing with Goodwin during his early years with the Bills.

A top 20 pick that can't even get on the playing field. I know the Bengals coaching staff was bad but I have to imagine they had reasons to not play him. And that reason was probably him not being very good. You can being up Goodwin and I'll raise you a Tavon Austin and Phillip Dorset.

yeah true, but wasn't he #3 at least in Cincy. Green and Marvin were the starting guys correct?

I'll raise you a Taylor Gabriel and a Ted Ginn.

First season was medicals, second could be just pure suckage, but iirc he pulled up with a limp after his record breaking 40 at the combine. So maybe he is just a china doll.

and Ross.

Dear LORD Shanny would cream.

Brandon Cooks would have been a better raise tbh
Damn forgot he had 7 tds last year.

Yep, you never know many. Shanny can find some ways to use him to the best of his ability I'm sure.

If we get him I have nothing but faith that Shanny will make him look great. So I guess I'm okay with it but I'd rather target other spots in the roster that Shanny can't effect by gameplanning (defense)

He would replace Bourne not be our #1

I have no doubt KS would properly utilize Ross, but my main concern is how reliable he would be for the team. He's definitely talented though, so for a cheap 6th rounder or something it would probably be worth the gamble. I just don't want acquiring Ross to prevent us from drafting a WR early. Goodwin, Pettis and Ross aren't exactly known as ironmen and our depth at WR could really be tested.
I did not realize that Ross had 7tds last season.

This...cool with bringing him in for a late pick BUT in no way should it fix our WR corp. IMO it's a small bonus nothing more and he shouldn't be relied on for anything.

If I remember correctly Shanny was a big fan
Kyle loves speed and ross was a great route runner in college. I haven't followed his NFL career but I'd be all for kicking the tires for a 5th or so.

John Ross was a happy little mistake.

His career has consisted of injuries
