Now, I see Alexander as upgrade to Dennard. Alexander is a much more aggressive style of defender. In 55 games that he's played in, Alexander has 2 INTs, 21 PDs, 9 TFL, and 8 QB hits, meaning that he's an effective blitzer. Dennard played in 77 games, has logged 3 INTs, 22 PDs, but only 5 TFL, and 5 QB hits.
I really feel like Alexander and Von Bell will make a noticeable difference in how the Bengals cover the middle of the field and underneath routes that they have been burned on so badly the past few years.
I disagree. In pass coverage their stats are similar, but Waynes has better recovery speed and is a MUCH better tackler.
