Nerdy Football Analysis: The decision to bench Andy Dalton after almost nine seasons at the helm was probably a tough one, but it’s not a terrible decision for the organization. Finley was the No. 104 overall pick and was mostly a game manager type in the preseason. He’s unlikely to emerge as a long-term solution in Cincinnati, but he will have A.J. Green for Week 10 against the Ravens. He’s off the fantasy radar and has similar upside to Brandon Allen in Denver.
