Highest organized level? Adult Semi-Pro. And, like the OP stated, we did NOT get paid. That picture in the avatar is me, I believe it as in '98?
I played G, and DE mainly. Played DT one season, after our two big DTs both suffered season ending knee injuries. Also played some OLB.
I tried out for TE, one season, but it didn't work out well. I was too interested in chasing down and plowing over the S, to remember to turn around and look for the ball..
Almost forgot, as to how my football experience shapes the way I view the Bengals?
That is easy, OL, DL wins games.
However, I will choose to differ in opinion with the OP. QB is more important. He just didn't notice it in Semi-Pro, as there aren't as many really good QBs willing to risk their health or reputation playing Semi-Pro ball.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
