I went from doom and gloom to optimistic since season end

1. He wasn't outplayed by Fej at all. Fej was bad at defense, good on ST. The Bengals haven't really had any good safeties since they let Nelson leave.

2. Dre Kirkpatrick with his signing bonus, base salary, roster bonus, and workout bonus, made just a hair under $15m in 2017, which was 6th most among CBs. If you look at total value of a contract, Kirkpatrick's is 10th among all CBs. Damn the Bengals FO sucks. Lol

Fej was better in coverage and a better tackler...if you like those things out of your safeties.

Dre was very disappointing this year, and was passed by both WJIII and Dennard.  He should be a back up until he starts playing like a starter again.

Problem is, they need one of them to be slot corner, and that will have to be Dennard because Dre can't do it. 

I wish Dre would spend some time in the weight room and more time in the study room.  I think he has the ability, but not the drive.
