RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 06-14-2025
I voted 13-19 but closer to 19 until we see these guys really grow. Dax showed last year he could be a very good boundary Corner for us
and once he is healthy could be great in the Slot. DJ Turner is extremely fast with fluid hips and showed some good things last year also
before getting injured. CTB sucked last year though, hopefully the new coaching helps, he says it has and he had a nice pick on Burrow in
mandatories. Really like Fig Newton and DJ Ivey showed some good things last season finally getting healthy.
But still, mid pack at best until we see the growth.
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - Luvnit2 - 06-15-2025
Based on 2024, I voted 20-26. The bad news is we were forced to play non starters and a rookie last year. The bad news is Taylor-Britt digressed in coverage in 2024 ad nond not sure why as he was much better prior.
The good news is we lost 2 starters so it was hard on a secondary playing 2nd and 3rd string guys a lot f 2024. I am actually optimistic this group can be a lot better, but they need to prove it on the field in 2025. If I were to rank them in 2024, they were one of the worst groups in the league in my opionion so as bad as my rating is right now, it is an improvemen over 2024.
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - Goalpost - 06-15-2025
I wouldnt call them reliable or dependable. 20-26 is my vote
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - sandwedge - 06-15-2025
Might as well be blunt here 20-26
CTB isn't as good as he or most fans think.
Turner doesn't really show up much, except on the injured report.
Hill was decent until he showed up on the injury report.
Fig I actually like, made rookie mistakes but was playing decent at the end of last season.
I hope Ivey gets a chance to show more this year.
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - Nicomo Cosca - 06-15-2025
They don’t have a single proven guy in that group now that Hilton is gone. I can’t rank them any higher than bottom tier until they show it on the field. Not to mention stay healthy in the first place.
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - bengalfan74 - 06-15-2025
Until they prove they're better I'm going 20-26.
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - TCUBengal34 - 06-15-2025
I'm biased, but I think Fig is a stud who's going to ball out this year.

Wouldn't surprise me. You know him all too well. He is really smart and you can tell the coaches love the guy.
RE: Rate Our CBs (2025) - FormerlyBengalRugby - 06-16-2025
Nothing proven, and I would think the crowd that bagged on Tee for his injuries might be gun-shy here too.
20-26 currently, but could move as the season progresses and the defense comes together.
Hopefully the new defense will improve the pass rush with some d-line games, and bringing additional heat from the linebackers, making the job of the secondary much easier.

It appears this blocking dummy said something about Newton's mama:
