The Bengals consistently stated this past offseason that Simpson was a raw prospect, so it's not too surprising that he hasn't contributed in his rookie season. Let's keep in mind that before this season, it was rare for a rookie WR to make an impact, and it doesn't necessarily mean a player won't develop in subsequent seasons.He looked like a playmaker to me in the preseason, and as a 2nd round pick, the Bengals saw something they liked quite a bit. Since TJ will be a free agent, Chad Johnson will likely make another attempt to escape Cincinnati, and Chris Henry can't go a calendar year without being arrested, the opportunity for a move up the depth chart will almost definitely be there.
