Nelson
Hall?
Honestly, I don't see 6 guys that need to be re-signed. I see 4 starters (Jones x 2, Nelson and Iloka)
What was the bengals "base" formation? Probably, 3 wrs, 1 te, right? It wasn't a 2 te set, nor would I have thought it was with a fb, either.
The 6 could be Marvin jones, mo sanu), Andre Smith, pacman (3rd CB is often viewed as a "starter"), George Iloka, Reggie Nelson.
Or Leon Hall.
Of course, this doesn't count the rotational players of Vinnie Rey, wallace Gilberry, pat Sims, Brandon Thompson, Eric Winston, E lamur.
Nor does it take into consideration the departure of my 3 defensive coaches and an oc ("upgraded" to the thrice passed over qb coach).
This team is going to be different. Different players, probably less experience, and with a lot of new positional coaches.
The steelers changes are the return of the best rb in football, a great center, a lt, and a healthy Big Ben (until he is not).
The Ravens and steelers were in the top 5 of games missed by starters ( so we're the patriots).
The bengals were among the lowest with games missed.
It is always interest in the afc north.
