Hell his lb teamate was picked with the next pick. He looked elite in limited action and will be a pro bowler/ elite starter for many years. Our dline on the other hand needs to get younger across the board. Our wrs need to get younger. We did with boyd, but lafell is already 30 and green will be 30 next year. Our cbs literally are completwly unknowns outside of dre k. Pacman is old as dirt. To me vigil is going to be the next luke kuechley and te will not be a problem on defense anymore.
You are more impressed with Vigil and Rey than I am. I think we are weak at linebacker and have been weak at linebacker for years. One thing about Foster is that teams won't run the ball on us. He will quickly be our best run stuffing LB on the team. There is also Reddick. I would rather have Foster. I'm tired of watching good teams run the ball at will on us. We will never be a good team until we can stuff the run of teams like Patriots, Cowboys, Steelers. Marvin Lewis has never had linebackers here as good as the ones he had with Ravens. Our LBs stink compared to Super Bowl teams. Lets stop over rating Bengals LBs and fix the problem. Just because Pollack got injured and Thurman ruined his career and Rivers didn't work out does not mean you never ever again draft a top LB. ...........Now I could see taking a top D Lineman or the LSU RB at pick 9 also. There are no O Linemen worth a pick 9 and WR or TE or DB at 9 would just be a lousy pick for us. Here is the deal at CB. Kirkpatrick, Dennard and Jackson Bengals took in Round One. Now that's enough. I'm against this Sherman idea or drafting CB again. CB is NOT the only position on the field.
