I liked Miller. But if they really want to go stretch or pin zone then this is the better move. Miller was much better in a drive or directional drive block scheme but not good at zone blocking.

It is a good thing as Marv would of said.

Versatility is what we need in all phases.

Sometimes it is difficult for certain players though and I don't want us to complicate things.

Stick to what your players are good at and add players accordingly.

Don't mind it as a depth signing. I'm a little concerned since it's being reported that he's the intended starter.

I’m a big fan of when things are crappy, shaking things up as much as possible. I can’t remember feeling this optimistic about change in an offseason.

Reader, Waynes and Xavier is pretty damn good.

Never would of thought they would fork out that dough for Reader or Waynes. 

Reader is maybe the best NT in the NFL...

Sounds like a Boobie Williams type of signing.   He came in with mixed reviews, but ended up with a great career with the Bengals.  Bobbie was labeled as a complete bust for the Eagles before joining the Bengals.  Give it some time.

That’s the shocker. The Bengals and the Reds are both trying to be relevant again. Hopefully the warm weather will help get this virus under control so everyone stays healthy and we can enjoy some winning sports teams.

No doubt and spot on with everyone's thoughts around here. Cool

Good to see that he can get to the second level and take LB's out of the play.  That was something we were really bad at last year.

And he can play on both sides of the line. Cool

RE: Bengals sign Xavier Su'a-Filo - Murdock2420 - 03-18-2020

Never heard of him, but he looks angry while blocking in those clips, something this O-line really needs. A nasty streak.
