September 1, 200917 yr Well Andre Smith went from being almost useless to being completely useless today. He had already missed pretty much all of training camp and now is going to have to take maybe a month now to heal his injury before he even starts to absorb the Bengals playbook and get back to game speed. I don't think Smith will see a snap all year based on this IMO...
September 1, 200917 yr If he would have held out just a little longer. :lol: Seriously hope he recovers quickly. I don't think he will be starting till deep into the season now.

September 1, 200917 yr While I know, they are thin at the position, it wouldn't bother me at all to see him sit a season and learn. Thats exactly how I feel at this point and I think it is the best option they have on the table right now. Whether that happens or not, who knows? The guys upstairs will ultimately make that decision.
September 1, 200917 yr What is sitting out going to solve. It's not a position like QB he just has to learn the plays and block the guy in front on you. If it takes him a year to get that then I don't know.

September 1, 200917 yr :lol: That's just funny. Not wishing injury on anyone...but it's funny that he held out for so long only to get hurt 48 hours after joining the team.

If it takes him a year to get that then I don't know. I'd say it's a lot more than learning the plays and blocking the guy in front of you. It might not be as difficult to grasp as the QB position, but I don't see how it could be as easy as you make it sound either.
