However, I'm not really sure how much more effective JPP would be than Johnson. JPP has had two "big years" with double digit sacks, while Johnson has only had one, other than that their tackle totals are actually quite similar.
Really, the key to getting more stats out of that RDE position seems to be getting better penetration and disruption from the Under DT. Peko gives his all, but at this point in time, it isn't nearly enough. Time for Billings to step up and assume the role.
That's interesting comparing Johnson and JPP's stats.
The Bengals will likely go after former 1st Rounders who haven't lived up to potential. Look for guys like Jarvis Jones, Fairley, Amakumara, and Riley Reiff. (Reiff isn't that good.)
Fairley and Amakumara would be upgrades here...but for whatever reason teams keep giving them 1 year deals.
