While it was an honorable and valiant effort... a 3 yard TD and a punt return against horrid 3/4th string coverage doesn't earn you a spot on this team.

I love the guy. He is buying into the Bengal way, and he has shown he is a hard worker, but he will have to really turn some heads to make this roster.

I'm not so sure.  He came from a more traditional NFL-style offense at Wisconsin.  Alford coming from a spread at WVU.  What about their blocking ability?  I liked that he was durable in his time at Wisconsin and worked a lot in the middle of the field.  

I have nothing against Alford.  In fact, I would like to see both make the team over Tate.  I just think they could blossom whereas we know what we have in Tate.
