Quote:Dunlap appears to be a highly regarded 4-3 right defensive end but there will be concerns over his character and consistent effort in the 2010 draft.

He is a 100% a first ballot Hall of famer.

Carlos Dunlap now has a commanding lead as the Bengals top defensive player per PFF. His current grade of 86.7 is the second highest of his career.

What an incredibly consistent player over the course of his career. Winning or losing, Dunlap will show up.

I think that outside of Cincy, not many people know how great he is. And he's an even better person than player.

It’s harder to ignore WR’s like Chad and AJ, but some of our other good/great players don’t get a lot of attention. Hell, just look at Mixon getting snubbed for the Pro Bowl in a season he led the damn conference in rushing...

This franchise has been around for 51 years and has 1 HOFer. 1! That's all you need to know on Geno.

And while Geno has good stats...they don't jump out at you as obvious HOF material.

And AJ has been injured too much to make the HOF.

Yes his numbers do jump out dudes going to be on the All decade team easily. 2nd best 3T this decade. 

Quote:Carlos Dunlap had a career year, and nobody noticed because he played on the Bengals
Aided by playing Cleveland’s disastrous offensive line, Dunlap had his second three-sack performance of the season in the second win the team managed all year. Dunlap will finish the season with the highest grade he has managed since at least 2012, and depending on how the grades are finalized on All-22 review, may have posted the best year of his entire career. His run defense was phenomenal this season, and he has had excellent games of pass rushing, but the second half of the year was one of the best-graded of any edge rusher in the league, he just did it almost completely without notice because the Bengals weren’t winning.
