I won't give a lot of detail, just the grade so people can cut and paste and give their own takes. I am going to assume that Green (tagged), Dennard, Vigil, Billings, and Wilson are retained. The position grade includes backups, so my grade for QB class would be Dalton, Finley, and Dolegala. Here goes:QB. D
QB: C
RB: B
WR: B
TE: C
OT: D
G: F
C: B-
DE: B-
DT: C
LB: D
S: D
CB: C
K,P- B-
As Long as Findley is on the roster it's not good
Dolegala hopefully jumps over him as #2
RB. A Mixon is the best RB in the AFC.Anderson is the
Wild Card here. He flashed some mad skills before his knee went out
WR A . A healthy AJ Green makes everyone.better and causes
Mismatches. But they need to draft Green's replacement
Tate is improving. Ross is probally in his last year in stripes.
TE. B. I hope they resign Eifert. He still does things that Uzomah
Can't do. Cethan Carter looks to be versatile in his role.
Sample needs to prove himself.
OT.C If Williams can get healthy this grade improves
Fred Johnson looked rock solid in his limited starts
A free agent signing would add some experience and depth
OG D . This group was a mess last year. They started
3 different OG. Miller was ok at best. They need to draft a OG
and sign a FA
C. B. Trey Hopkins is underated. Best center since Rich Braham.
I would bring in FA to back Hopkins up
DE. B. Dunlap played at a elite level. But how many more of those years does he have left. Hubbard is becoming a force
Lawson needs to stay healthy. It would not hurt to
Look at another pass rusher in FA.
DT. C. Atkins best days may be behind.Taputo flashed
Wren showed very little. Billings can dominate at times.
They need to find a true pass rushing DT somewhere
LB F. Pratt is the only one that showed improvement
Last year. Vigil continued to leave plays on the field
A true playmaker gamechanger is needed
CB. C .Darius Phillips did something the other CB failed
To do. Take the ball away. He might be a future Pro Bowler
Jackson has been regressing.
S. D. The Bengals have the worst tackling tandem
In the NFL. They lack communication skills
This group could use.upgrades
K.P B. Very consistant group overall
