Because it'd be typical Bengals to rely on a rookie and average at best linebacker to solve all of their problems. Just like how they sold us that Frank Pollack was going to turn Fisher and Ogbuehi into starters. Yeah, if everything in my original post comes true, the LB core might be formidable. Malik Jefferson could be an all-pro for all we know. If it doesn't then what would be their excuse as to why they didn't have alternatives or actually went out and upgraded?
I don't hate Preston Brown by any means, and I'm not one of the fans advocating that they should bring in Zach Brown (unless it's on a really cheap deal). I'm just not a fan of the approach. It's like they think every player on the current roster is a pro bowler and that coaching and better luck with injuries is going to make a huge difference.
