CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - Au165 - 03-19-2020
1 year $4 Million. Guy is young and has upside, but hasn't quite lived up to expectations. He can come in and play slot and I actually really like this move as low risk high upside with some youth.

Good signing. Still active in free agency. Hopefully they are working on trading Dre now.

Per @TomPelissero CB Mackensie Alexander is joining the Bengals on a 1-year, $4m deal

RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - spazz70 - 03-19-2020
2 CBs and a DT in FA...go get a decent LBer and the draft is wide open for offense to build for Burrow

Imagine if Zimmer was HC here...

Love this signing. Very, very useful player with upside.
RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - CJD - 03-19-2020
Now we can cross CB off our draft list entirely! It's looking more and more like this draft is going to be an offensive extravaganza, with a LB thrown in somewhere where it makes sense!
RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - Sled21 - 03-19-2020
He's on IR in January.... what was the injury?

I wouldn’t. This draft is deep at cb this year. Dre will be gone and only have makenzie for 1 year. Cb may not be an early priority but I wouldn’t cross the position of the list

#Bengals may have found their slot CB in Mackensie Alexander.
— Evan McPhillips (@emcphil) March 19, 2020
Among slot CBs, he ranked 19th in two-year coverage grade and had the 4th-highest forced incompletion rate (via @PFF)
In 2018, he produced an 86.4 run defense grade and a 72.5 coverage grade, and was worth ~0.28 WAR.

10 starts over the last 2 years, and held opposing QB's to a passer rating of 84.0 during that span (according to Pro Football Reference).
Can't go wrong signing a couple of young corners away from Mike Zimmer.

this will be the last year on Jacksons rookie deal?

I mentioned numerous times in 2019 our CB's bere soft tacklers. Now we add a second very physical CB in days.
I am loving it.
RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - Socal Bengals fan - 03-19-2020
Great pick up. Signing cornerbacks that can tackle. I like it. Now we need a line backer n safety to complete this defense.
RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - ochocincos - 03-19-2020
Solid slot CB.
You really have to imagine something is about to happen with Kirk at this point.
There's no way you can start all of WJ3, Waynes, Alexander, Phillips, and Kirk. Someone will have to ride the bench.
RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - Schmitbuck - 03-19-2020
Big fan of this signing. I think I'm getting greedy... I'd still like to see a safety and Derek Wolfe signed.
RE: CB Mackensie Alexander Signed - Wyche'sWarrior - 03-19-2020
Did someone kidnap Mikey? I guess the team wasn't kidding when they said they'd be active. I can't recall this many signings ever.
