Having Bridgewater, and Latavius Murray around really came in handy. The Bengals had some pretty good depth between 2013-2015. Now; not so much. They started the year with 3 tackles on the roster. One of them they wanted to switch to guard. Another was Bobby Hart.
As I said, I don't disagree with the OP. Our depth is atrocious. Eric Winston may not have been a starter but at least he was a serviceable back up when we needed him to step in. Now we don't have quality starters, let alone quality back ups.

You're all forgetting that the Bengals never suffer injuries. They get "dinged up" meaning they require life ending minor surgery. You never hear about guys coming back from life ending minor surgery..
