New Bengal - BJ Finney

[*ochocincos*]

BJ Finney is supposed to be the player acquired in the Dunlap trade.
He has played all IOL spots.

His contract with Seattle was through next year.
Remaining cap hit for this year is $1.47 mill.
Cap hit for next year is $3.5 mill with 0 dead cap.

Finney had not taken a snap yet this season for SEA.

His PFF ratings the past few years:
2019 - 56.9 (72.0 pass, 52.1 run) on 325 snaps
2018 - 71.5 (90.4 pass, 55.8 run) on 165 snaps
2017 - 66.4 (89.6 pass, 59.8 run) on 234 snaps
2016 - 72.8 (80.8 pass, 71.6 run) on 301 snaps

So what are the Bengals getting with Finney? Likely a versatile backup IOL who looks to be a good pass blocker but not good run blocker. He's similar to Trey Hopkins in terms of pass block vs run block.

I do not think there's much chance that he unseats any of the current starters, but he might be a better backup option than Price.
