Eli didn't start Day One but Coughlin admitted later it was a mistake to make him sit on the bench. I don't know if the Bengals feel the same but they basically wasted an entire year of Palmer's career.
If you're going #1 overall, that player had better damn sure start from Day One.
Period.

That's short sighted.
If a QB has a good career, who cares about his first year?
I'm a lot more interested in years 3-15
