1.) Eli Apple deserves to be starting right now. I don't think anyone can say lack of scheme fit is the reason for Wayne's struggle.
2.) Alexander wasn't that bad of a player for us last season. Also I think the Bengals thought a lot of Mike Hilton and that's why he was brought in over Alexander.
Not necessarily due to scheme fitm. Both guys were touted as great Blitzers and great Run defenders when we signed them.
