Bengals have probably this season, maybe next season before they NEED a new 3-down DT to replace BJ Hill, and they need someone (maybe it's a DE who swings inside) to cover IDL pass rush in nickel situations alongside Hill in the short term.
That guy won't be Slaton, and it won't likely be McKinnley Jackson.
If it's not Jenkins, who is it?
I agree with your sentiment about the lack of interior pass rush and to me it's our biggest concern. We need a dynamic playmaker in the middle of the line.
