#Bengals may have found their slot CB in Mackensie Alexander.

Among slot CBs, he ranked 19th in two-year coverage grade and had the 4th-highest forced incompletion rate (via @PFF)

In 2018, he produced an 86.4 run defense grade and a 72.5 coverage grade, and was worth ~0.28 WAR.

This stood out to me on all the defensive signings...Tackling.  It seems to be an area of serious upgrade focus.  Good, because we sure sucked at it before.
