I thought I actually read/heard somewhere the Bengals have the slowest LB group?
As for Westerman, they need a guy who can push from north to south, specifically at RG. This team is too focused on lateral rather than vertical. No actual drive off the ball.
And it shows. Nickerson is smart but slow as molasses. I had heard that they liked Worley, but then started hearing that, though they still like him, he's slow.
Marvin loves Nickerson because he's always where he's supposed to be. But he doesn't get there on time and misses a lot of tackles.
I don't think Worley even makes the field (except special teams) unless someone else gets injured. So I doubt we'll even get any legitimate evaluation of how he plays against starting NFL players.
