Now, as I learn more about Scott, I am really warming up to his addition to the team. His speed and crushing hits attacking with a RBs mentality could very well result in a seamless transition.
Once again, the folks in charge show why they get paid to make football decisions and I just sit here and criticize the actions that I don't agree with. Well done, Bengals personnel team!
Well, you hear Nick Scott and it is like John Smith. I mean the name just doesn't scream the next great Safety of the Bengals.
But....

"He was a leader in the special teams area, but then last year after some of the older guys left in the secondary, Nick definitely took that over and became a huge leader. I think you're getting a player that's on the come and on the rise. He's a very physical player, but also a very smart player. I think that's why the defense just kept putting more and more on his plate and he kept getting better and better. Those are the kind of guys, hungry like that, and now that he's at a place where he's a solid starter in this league, I think he's only going to get better from there."
The reports are he’s a huge locker room guy.
What we lost in Vonn Bell was smarts and this guy must have it to have such praise from a good ST's coordinator.
