Bengals, Lafell closing in on deal

[Bengalbug]

Lafell - someone help me out as I know nothing about him.

Tall or avg..lanky or more athletic looking to go over the middle and be ok....is he speedy? Is he an outside threat w wheels? Good hands?

Off the top of my head as I looked all this up over the last week

6-3 220 not lanky very big body. nE would occasionally line him up in the backfield and even block. He isn't a burner but can still stretch the field and box oppppnents much like a Brandon Marshall (of course not on the same talent level) but similar attributes. He ran a 4.5 at the combine so he is not slow for his size and he did play the slot before.

I think he could pick of 50-55% of the combine production of sanu and jones combined 600-700 yards and 50-60 catches. We need someone else to step up (probably a rookie) and get another 40% and then eifert and green to be who we know they can be.

Lafell would be a good signing at this point in the offseason. Wallace was my first choice, but Lafell brings another big body in the redzone
