OT: The Bengals are still the Bungles

[Southpaw]

1st round Pick #11 overall. So much for pre draft medical exam. Another one of those worn out Nick Saban Alabama players .

"
The Cincinnati Bengals received some awful summer-break news: First-round pick Jonah Williams will likely miss the entire 2019 season.

The team announced the rookie left tackle underwent left shoulder surgery Tuesday to repair a torn labrum that is likely to sideline him for the entire year. The 21-year-old is expected to make a full recovery, the Bengals added.

Williams sat out minicamp with an injury new coach Zac Taylor described as "dinged up." After seeing the doctor, it turned out much worse for Williams."

Yes, we know the feeling all too well.

I really like Williams and still think he was a great pick.

I remember this happening to them back in the 90s too. They drafted Ki Jana Carter out of PSU in the first round and Carter tore a ligament in his knee on his third carry of his first preseason game of his rookie year, and never fully recovered. He missed the entire 1995 season.

Bengals lose a cheap contract year and OLinemen with shoulder injuries have short careers. He "fell" to Bengals at #11. Wonder why?

Because that’s where he was projected?

Maybe the "projectors" knew about his shoulder.
