Bengals 2019 LBers
#60
(05-04-2019, 07:45 PM)Bilbo Saggins Wrote: I'm not sure why everyone forgets about him, but if an average NFL starting caliber LB is what you're after, Jon Bostic is the dude. His coverage, similar to Brown's, isn't THAT bad for all of the flack that he gets. PFF graded him as the 63rd best lb last year, with "good" ratings in both coverage and against the run. He was one of the best tacklers on the Steelers for his time there. If it looks like the LBs might be putrid again this year and that there's no end at the light of the tunnel for one of the young guys, I'd snatch Bostic up in a heartbeat. He'd do fine in the right scheme.

Bostic would be a fine stop-gap addition to the LB room.  The problem is, he is essentially about = Nick Vigil, in terms of what he would bring to the team.  I'm thinking that the coaches are likely planning on rolling with Pratt at WILL, Brown at MIKE, and Vigil at SAM.  You might be able to argue that Bostic is better than Vigil, right now.  But, Vigil has done nothing but develop and improve since he got here.  I would expect nothing less than continued development, along the same curve it has been progressing, in the upcoming season.  

So, with that in mind;  Who are you going to bench, in order to get Bostic on the field?  I'm relatively certain that Brown is going to be the MIKE, and it would seem disingenuous to keep Pratt off the field.

Edit: On the other hand, I could see a guy like Bostic being a low cost, first off the bench type of guy that might add quality depth.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
