We're banking on Pratt being a quality starter...and then all 3 LB's staying healthy. That's a big ask. Could it happen? Yes. But, there's risk too.
Agreed.
As of now, the LBs would project like this (assuming 6):
Vigil
Brown
Evans
Jefferson
Pratt
Davis/Nickerson/Worley
The Bengals also still have almost $23 mill in cap space. Spotrac did an estimation of $9 mill needed for the Bengals draft picks that just happened, which would bring the total down to almost $14 mill. The Bengals could still put $4-5 mill toward a LB to really help bolster that position and have plenty left over for extensions.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
