Looking at WRs
Green
Lafell
Boyd

Should all have spots (I also have tate penciled in) So maybe 2 or 3 spots for the Rest. Alford and Core aren't gaurenteed spots. But you would think back end WRs would need to do special teams work. Not to say someone like Boldin or Johnson couldn't help us by starting in front of boyd for a few games but eventually boyd will need to take their spot. (we got spoiled by AJ and always expect rookie WRs to contribute right away now it took sanu and jones a few years to be decently productive)
How many rookie WRs do we really want on our roster? I say maybe 1 2 if core shines in preseason outside of that I could see guys like wright and kamerow possibly making the squad. Are we in win now mode or we still keeping a long eye to the future.
I can't speak for other but 2 rookies I want on our 53 man roster are Boyd and Core. No way Core is not picked up by another team (Core also has shown to be good special team player in college) if we try and put him on our practice squad in my opinion. My point is we only have 53 spots so using an aging veteran to release a rookie like Core in my opinion would be a huge mistake. I like Bolden, but he is older and does have trouble now getting seperation
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
