Nobody on the planet would trade a bottom roster OL (which is what we have right now) or a LB (which I actually think we'll be much better this year) for Willis. Absolutely nobody.

He was a solid starter for many years.

After Glasgow went down it really hurt the defense because they really didnt have anyone to replace him.

I believe he would be starting on alot of teams. Yeah Glasgow is good but Billings is coming into his own, just watch Synric.

Worst D we have had in a long time, not his fault but he is a walking tree, no bend. The Linebackers were the biggest problem last season and the coaching on D. BTW, I think Hubbard can excel your 6.5 a year sack number. He is a splash play guy.

Man I drank a big swig of the Koolaid in pre-season last year. Billings looked like a beast as well. The D was the flagship to the whole team. Then I looked down as the season went on and could see that in fact water was at my ankles and the gum had fallen out of the hole that was keeping it afloat!

Nope, a common trope in media!: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Cloudcuckoolander Essentially, someone who is completely out of it. If Hubbard does better than what I hypothesized, all the better! ![]() RE: Jordan Willis - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 08-22-2019 (08-22-2019, 01:37 PM)Truck_1_0_1_ Wrote: And I didn't mean to sound like I was defending him :$ Well you nailed it ha ha ![]() Hubbard is special and is looking better and better. I expect big things from the man. I am not an OSU homer either, don't even care for the Buckeyes but Hubbard is a stud. Also love Price if he can grow into his own. Might of pissed of some Buckeye fans there about not being a fan but I don't care, I am a Bengals fan, nothing else.

Maybe not a pro bowler but a stud for us. Better than MJ who was as flexible as a flag pole. He was already better than MJ was in his first year here. Our front 4 should be damn solid this year with #58 coming in on passing downs.

Our front 4 should be damn solid this year with #58 coming in on passing downs. Completely agree, i think Hubbard could be a pro bowler or even better All Pro. He has great hands and knows how to shed blocks instinctively. I like Willis cause he can stop the run, one thing that MJ was good at. Willis also has more bend than MJ who had none as you say. Lawson's bend is incredible though, his shoulder scrapes the ground at times, insane. It was unfair last season to our D-line. Doesn't matter how good your DL is if the Linebackers are that terrible. The QB can just drop the ball off to the RB or TE for a first down and slowly wear out the DL. I think with Pratt here now and a healthy Preston and most notably a new LB coach in Tem we can shut that shit down.

I agree to disagree. Because a couple years ago if someone said we should trade bene benwikere away for a draft pick i would have said yea right nobody on the planet would do that.

Willis is a guy i wouldn't like us trading away but if we can upgrade the team in doing so i am for it. Teams need pass rushers and we need blockers. A trade is a good trade when it benefits both parties. |
