ArmyBengal Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Nice, I think he's going to have a monster year. That guy has a motor that just didn't quit last year and seeing as that was the knock on him going into last years draft, there was some serious under estimation done on the part of a bunch of scouts. Go for the Bengals !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for the Bengals !!!At the risk of cool-aid drinking, if MJ can progress (and the use of him improve) AND Rey be as dedicated as he sounds, this is instantly a top 3 LB corps. Dhani Jones, Brandon Johnson as depth/rotation players? That's a pretty nice group right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhani Jones, Brandon Johnson as depth/rotation players? That's a pretty nice group right there.Well... it's certainly kool-aid drinking. But it just tastes so damn good.MJ will still just be a role player, and I don't think Rey is moving to the middle as a starter just yet. But being a "starter" is probably the most overused term in the NFL. Especially in Zimmer's defense.All of these guys are going to get plenty of playing time in plenty of different situations. The thing I like the most about MJ making a successful switch to LB is that the depth at LB looks really attractive. And everyone brings something different to the table that offenses are going to have to plan for. MJs pass rushing. Reys run stopping. Brandon Johnson's pass rushing and pass coverage. Rivers and Dhani just being solid all around. It's a good group with good depth. Same with the secondary and D-Line.After years of being annoyed with how little depth the Bengals had on the defense, it feels like I might accidentally be looking at some other team's roster.

ArmyBengal Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Not only will all of these guys get a bunch of snaps, but they will get them at more than one position which will just confuse the sh*t out of offenses.We have a bunch of guys in our front 7 that play more than their listed position. Very nice to have that type of versatility up there !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
