The Bengals' recent draft philosophy reminds me of the bad old days in Detroit. They draft players like Stewart and Murphy who have impressive measurables but spotty college production, then wonder why they don't play better now that they're drawing an NFL paycheck. And the few picks that actually pay off then get into public disputes with the front office and either get overpaid or leave--which of course leads to other guys leaving. All very familiar, but thankfully those memories are now a little harder to recall.

I really enjoyed this article…great background on Cincinnati! I had forgotten they selected Chase over Sewell. To borrow a line from an Indiana Jones movie, my comment to Brad is "You have chosen... wisely".
