Bengals hosted DL Basham and Street

last season and has a higher upside. Gunter also has high upside and gained strength much quicker than I thought he would. His
weakness was he needed to get in the weight room. He clearly took that to heart as a rookie. He has great length and has good
hands in evading blocks and has moves already.

My darkhorse this year might just be Jeffrey Gunter as an EDGE for us.

While I get what you are saying about Gunter and Tufele, they were the two lowest last year when it comes to defensive snaps for DL.
Tufele only 138 snaps
Gunter only 37 snaps
The next-lowest DL was Tupou, who had 272 snaps.
So Tufele is the lowest on the totem pole when it comes to DT, Gunter is lowest when it comes to DE.

With that said, the Bengals have a pretty full stable on the DL if they are ok with Tufele and Gunter on the back end.
DE - Hendrickson, Hubbard, Ossai, Sample, Gunter
DT - Reader, Hill, Carter, Tupou, Tufele

I don't see them keeping more than 10 DL.
The only guys I see potentially not making it are Gunter, Tufele, or Tupou.
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!
