I didn't think the Bengals would be dumb enough to not at least add one decent LB to the mix in FA but I guess that was too much to expect. We definitely need Jefferson to at least become a player we can rely on for a couple of games when/if injuries happen. As everyone has said, he has all the tools. I don't think Haslett was the guy to coach him up. Coaching seems to always be the scapegoat around here so let's see what the new guy can do. I like Evans too. He was a pretty stout run defender in 2017 and has had some splash plays in coverage. He's also had some really bad games like one against the Saints.
A high draft pick, healthy Preston Brown, Vigil, along with Evans and Jefferson showing some growth, and maybe that's a solid LB corps? If the rookie is ok at best, Brown is nicked up again, Vigil is meh at best and Evans and Jefferson both struggle again in 2019? we're the worst defense in the league again.
