The league doesn’t traditionally value the position like that, not to mention the size/length concerns with him. Baltimore only took him that early because they had multiple 1st round picks, and were desperate due to the departure of Bozeman.
This times 100. The only team I see trading with us to get Linderbaum was GB and likely would have cost us our #2. The Bengals were smart. CTB has a great chance to beat out Apple. Hill will play a ton of snaps and groom for taking over at S next year. We were headed for disaster next year at safety. Now we’ve got some leverage. I expect they approach Bell with an extension and leverage him as first shot at resigning
