Looking at the 53 man roster, TE definitely stands out as a weak spot. Who in that position gives you confidence that they can make a crucial play, when needed?

The drafts over Zac's tenure have been crazy good overall
2020
5 still with the team, 2 in limbo
3 stars-Burrow, Higgins, Wilson
2-solid contributors-Gaither-Davis, Bailey
2-Contributors Adeniji and Kareem (both were waived today, both likely to land on their team's PS)
2021
8 out of 10 are still with the team
2 stars- Chase and McPherson
6 second stringers-Carman, Ossai, Sample, Smith, Hill, Evans
2 busts-Shelvin, Hubert
2022
5 out 6 still on 53
3 starters- Volson, Hill, Taylor-Britt
2-will be main contributors-Anderson, Carter
1-will be on PS and contributed last season-Gunter
2023
All picks made the team
over 4 years 31 picks and 26 are still on the team an 83.8% rate. 2 will likely be on our PS and 1 other on another team's.
Overall that is a pretty darn good success rate in the NFL. Shoot, it wasn't that long ago that entire draft classes were out of the league in 4 years

Alright, we are 2l15 minutes away from the announcement of the initial 53. Which may not be the 53 we start with, as we picked up 3 on the waiver wire last year. But I think it is a good place to start a new roster thread for the season. This isn't camp. It isn't free agency. It is go time, baby!
With the news earlier that Chrisman was cut, I think the 25 starters are set.
I. Starters = 25
A. Offense = 11
1. QB: Burrow
2. RB: Mixon
3. WR1: Chase
4. WR2: Higgins
5. WR3/Slot: Boyd
6. TE: I. Smith, Jr.
7. LT: O. Brown Jr.
8. LG: Volson
9. C: Karras
10. RG: Cappa
11. RT: J. Williams
B. Defense = 11
1. RDE: Hendrickson
2. NT/DT: Reader
3. DT: BJ Hill
4. LDE: Hubbard
5. LB: Wilson
6. LB: Pratt
7. CB1: Awuzie
8. CB2: Taylor-Britt
9..CB3/Slot: Hilton
10. SS: Scott
11. FS: D. Hill
C. Specialists = 3
1. PK: McPherson
2. P: Robbins
3. LS: Adomitis
----------------------
II. Reserves = 28
A. Offense = 14
1. QB2: Browning
2. RB2: C. Brown
3. RB3: T. Williams (KR1)
4. RB4: Evans (KR2)
5. WR4: Irwin
6. WR5: Iosivas
7. WR6/Slot2: C. Jones (PR1)
8. TE2: D. Sample
9. TE3: Wilcox
10. OT3: Carman (LT)
11. OT4: D. Smith (RT/LT)
12. G3/C3: Scharping
13. G4/OT5: Ford
14. C2/G5: T. Hill
B. Defense = 14
1. DE3: Ossai
2. DE4: C. Sample
3. DE5: Murphy
4. NT2: Tupou
5. DT3: Carter
6. NT3/DT4: Tufele
7. LB3: Davis- Gaither
8. LB4: Bailey
9. LB5: Bachie
10. CB4: Turner
11. CB5: Ivey
12. CB6/Slot2: J. Davis
13. S3: Battle
14. S4: Anderson
My only real gripes are taking 10 OL, with Ford and Hill making it. I'd have also taken Adeniji over Smith, but no biggie there. I certainly would have gone light at OL and kept Johnson III or D. Davis. Hudson over Wilcox at TE3. But I get Wilcox as the better ST guy. At least we did not waste a spot on Morgan, but he gives you more than Ford or Trey Hill, IMHO.

| Tycen Anderson Named DPOP By PFF! |

Tycen Anderson was named Defensive Player of the year by PFF!
With Bates and Bell leaving, I was a bit worried about the safety spots and our lack of depth behind Scott and Hill, but it looks like Tycen Anderson has been impressing the coaches and could carve out a spot where he gets some time on defense!
Quote:On Monday, PFF’s Gordon McGuinness released his preseason teams and revealed his preseason player awards.
Anderson was named McGuinness’ Defensive Player of the Preseason after his performance in the Bengals’ three games.
“Anderson finished the preseason with a 91.7 PFF coverage grade, primarily driven by his performance in the Bengals’ opener. He recorded two interceptions against the Packers in that first contest — one of which he returned for a touchdown.”
The Toledo product allowed just one catch on three targets across 81 preseason coverage snaps.
Anderson’s biggest issue was his tackling, as he missed three tackles in the preseason, with two coming in the finale.
It looks like the Bengals will have Nick Scott and Dax Hill as their starting safeties this season, but it looks like they have decent depth behind them with Anderson.
I like all that because tackling can be fixed with coaching and practice, but you can't teach ball skills and instincts in pass defense!

The more important question is it projected to be a single-game absence or multiple game one leading to a potential IR stint
