He still has those occasional episodes of looking too hard into the backfield - but even Iloka had one of those. I think a healthy Dre will play well this year, the biggest concern being whether he can stay healthy or not.
Agree with this.
It is odd because myself and Shady (I believe) were very outspoken about not wanting to draft this kid when many others had him mocked to Bengals. But both hushed after he became a Bengal and supported him.
Yet since then the kid has grown on me and believe he has a place on this defense. Would not break the bank to re-sign him but am fine with market value or a little less on extending his contract now.
