I'm going to miss Reggie. Anyway, sounds like a decent pickup adding depth

Scrap heap guy, with some staring experience? All-Pro in two years.

weird.....
RE: S Jimmy Wilson signed - BengalChris - 07-28-2016
My first thought was that Clayton Fejedelem just isn't going to be ready to fill a backup role this year.

Must not be confident with Derron and Fej.

Think it's moreso they released a safety (Taylor Mays) who was going to take up space because of suspension so they wanted to sign someone to take his spot for camp.
If anything, I think this says more about not signing Hall than anything.

Quite possibly. Maybe Hall's rehab is going slowly. In any case I'm still happy that Mays is no longer on the team.

that is not Dwight Freeney, ........but ok. lol
Agree, needed camp body.
RE: S Jimmy Wilson signed - jeremydc - 07-29-2016
Not strange or weird. A usual Bengals move, signing an underwhelming player that adds little impact.
RE: S Jimmy Wilson signed - jeremydc - 07-29-2016
I love the whole 'camp body' narrative though.

A veteran with starting experience in the system he is signed in to for added back up depth is exactly what you sign this time of the year. He could possibly be cut by the end of camp, but he adds another "coach" to camp for some of the younger guys.

Exactly....

We still have an open spot, plus I think teams might be waiting to sign a guy like Freeney so he doesn't count towards anything if cut mid season.

Well, if you think about the main goal of the preseason, avoiding injuries, do you really want Shawn Williams and George Iloka playing entire halves of the games, and Fej and Smith playing the rest? Another safety can keep these guys from meaningless snaps and avoiding injury.

Hey, the way I see it. If the play of a back up Safety is the down fall of our team this season we are in more trouble than anyone knows. The fact we even are debating possibly the 50-53 guy on the roster over starters shows how good this team is across the board.

depth is needed we don't have many extra safteys going into camp... we don't wanna wear out our main guys.
