Defensive Ends on the Bengals

Fanene,Rucker,Odom,Geathers,Johnson,Dunlap

Makes me wonder if their going to cut geathers or move Johnson to the Hybrid DE/OLB role.

Or just wave buh-bye to the Non-Dairy Dessert. IIRC he's just here on a one-year deal now and hasn't exactly knocked everyone's socks off.

But the value with Frostee is he can slide inside to DT on passing downs. If they try to do that with Dunlap, then maybe they get rid of him. As it stands, our DT's are Peko, Tank, Sims....I'm not counting Orien Harris or Clinton McDonald.

I just don't have the feel good thought to the pick. I think there were other players out there, like Cody and Burnett that would have made better choices and you could even argue that Everson Griffen was the better player at the position. Just not sure.

I think I would have also preferred any of those 3 Burnett (talent+fills need), Cody (We only have 3 real DT's Peko,Tank,Sims), Griffen, or maybe even Golden Tate (not a huge need, but a great value at that point).

He signed for two years. Said he wanted to stay. Said the Bengals love him.

Feel good story of the year.

Can't believe you missed it.

I guess I was too focused on that "new flavor of Juicy Fruit gum" story...

If you look at how Johnson played last year (another DE with similar attributes who suppossedly didnt have the motor), I think you have to feel that Zimmer can make it happen again. Johnson was better than I expected his first year. With the former Def Coords we had no, but with Zimm, yes, he will be all over his as*... I think that Zimm factor has to be considered, he will be embarrassed if he lacks effort, nothing like peer pressure and Zimm is the right man for Mr. Dunlap...

Griffen scares me as much and doesn't give them anything they don't already have. Dunlap gives them options.
