He's more of a well-rounded CB who can make some plays in the run game.Well I was about to say that Wayne's is one of only 2 players in our secondary that is under contract next year. But decided I better look that up and apparently we did sign Awuzie to a 3 year deal. After 2 games that's looking like a steal. But I really would've liked to get the Bates deal done this year and in a way that frees up money for later. It's early but we might have something special with this defense and it would nice to keep it together.
It wouldn't surprise me to see Waynes released and the Bengals draft a CB high next year to fill his spot.
They can use the saved cap space for a vet OL player.
