You have some young LBs that are athletic, a great safety and some good DB play (most times). Reader, Hubbard and Lawson on the dline. One young starter on the oline with another that has tons of talent (still way too early to see if it translates though) and a decent guy at center (most times).
Back to the dimwit comment; it's blatantly obvious that the needs are Oline and then Dline #1 and 2. You have an entire FA and draft to address that along with adding to a couple other positions.
Of course, if they Bengals don't do that next year, they don't even rise to the level of dimwit and i can't say that i'd really be all that surprised.
Health and overall team strength are always an issue with this team but needs are pretty much a no-brainer.
....and the reason health is always an issue is because the depth is always razor thin. We start a lot of players that would be decent depth on good teams....so that tells you what the bench is like. This team had been circling the drain since 2016, it's finally in the sewer headed for the shit plant. There's A LOT of roster work yet to be done. You couple that with an entirely new philosophy and scheme, you're gonna get to where we are now. It's inevitable.
