I think theri plan to have no true vet run stopper after Reader left blew up in their face. Rankins if healthy may have been a lot better than the rookies.

I think McKinnley will backup Slater and Jenkins will back up Hill.

You mean Slaton, but yes I think this too.
If they add another DT, it will be to replace Carter as the 5th DT.
I personally think that DT should be someone who can rush the passer, as they don't really have more than Hill who can rush the passer even decently well right now.

Maybe it's just Rapien's and Goodberry's opinions, but they are mentioning Walter Nolen's name A LOT.
They are also mentioning Kelvin Banks.
Guys they are most mentioning after these two are Emmanwori and Starks, but they seem to think much less likely. They even mentioned possibly Derrick Harmon if Nolen and Banks not there.
Sounds like they don't believe Bengals are leaning DE, at least at 17. Maybe if they trade back though.
