Burfict, our only pseudo-Star at the position, is often injured, suspended, and far from lean. For quite some time, the organization has short changed the LB position with mid to late round picks, UDFAs, and "bargain" Free Agents.
The Bengals haven't invested a serious draft pick on the LB position since Rey Maualuga (2nd round) and Keith Rivers (1st). Anyone else feel like it's high time for the Bengals to heavily invest in the position of LB? I mean, our guys are very average at stopping the run, below average in covering the pass, we have virtually no one that can roam sideline to sideline, in the traditional sense.
Well of course i voted LB Sunset, i think you nailed it. Burfict plays his ass off and they all looked much better yesterday
but before the season started lots of us thought this was our best LB corps that we have had, boy were we wrong and
Haslett has not helped at all.
I like Burfict and Vinny Rey but other than these two we have just question marks. Dansby looked better but he is not
the future. I like Vigil a bit and Flowers but we need someone to be excited about with work ethic.
The D-line was my second thought. We need to get rid of Peko and need Billings to show up for us. MJ has played pretty
good the last couple games but we also need another end. I like Sims but he is not the future either.
We need another DT and another pass rushing End.
