Marcel Reece - PacMan Fever - 09-27-2016
The Raiders released their longtime starting fullback today. 31 years old, Reece has averaged 4.6 yards per carry and 9.8 yards per reception in his eight-year career. He should be able to latch on in Cincinnati, perhaps help get our offense booming. Reece can also play special teams.

While it could be a good move, the Bengals won't do it. They seem to now have some trust in all of Hewitt, Kroft, and Uzomah.
If Uzomah hadn't shown something at all this year, I would say it would have been feasible.
With that said, something could happen if any of the above + Eifert were to have to be put on IR.

Reece won't be coming here since we the team believes Hewitt is the best FB/H-Back in the league.

Very surprised the Raiders released Reese, he is the only H-back i would put above Hewitt, but that is the thing, we have Hewitt.
Reese will find some other team.

Hewitt is no slouch when given the chance and he is much younger than Reese.
Loved that opening drive against the Broncos, on the TD Hewitt just slapped a Linebackers head back.
Dude makes some badass blocks at times.

Reece has always been an average to below average blocker as a H/Back or TE. He is a better receiver than Hewitt, but much worse blocker IMHO
