When Reader looks at the Bengals, he probably sees holes in some areas of the team, but then he looks at that fact that he gets to play on a Dline next to Geno, Carlos, Hubbard and Lawson. He's got to be thinking that will be one of the best Dlines in football, and his personal stats are going to put him in the Pro Bowl every year. If he's looking for a career in the Hall, these are the guys to surround himself with. And with his motor, he is going to push Geno, who has never needed much pushing himself. If Reader, Geno and Carlos get into a sac contest... Oh Lart.
Exactly.
It's like Chad with TO. Chad was his biggest advocate because Chad knew it meant fewer double coverages. Guys look for big paydays, sure, but they don't want to go places where their unit is garbage. Reader can step into this line and improve it, but it's good enough it's going to make him look better too.
