I'm ok with adding an edge rusher, but I'd actually prefer an interior pass rusher.
I don't know if you can say someone who is ~250 lbs and 6'3" - 6'4" are "untraditional" though.
Those measurements have always been pretty common in the league.
The Bengals just traditionally always chose to go the Carlos Dunlap-style for decades.
Look at the two main edge rushers from IND from the early 2000's for an example:
Robert Mathis - 6'2" 245 lb
Dwight Freeney - 6'1" 268 lb

Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!
