Back to the topic of Trey, I’m curious to see how many years he can match this type of production for us. That’ll be the key to if he’s the best ever FA for us. If we get 3+ years of this then easily. He’s surpassed even my high expectations for him. We are lucky the Saints are in cap hell and we were able to steal him away.
Also, let’s not forget DJ Reader, this guy has been a top pickup for us as well.

Cedric is an example of what happens when you make a bad player the focal team of an offense - he doesn't do very well. He was okay in 2009 and sucked the other two years. I'm not sure what else to tell you. Out of all of these guys who were a primary weapon the offense, Cedric is the worst of them all.

Benson and the defense were the 2 main reasons Cincy won the division in 2009 I will not discount him

Not great, but he was fine. He sucked the other two years, so overall from 2009-2011, he wasn't very good. That's really all I'm saying.

I love Hendrickson, but I think I’d call him the second best FA signing of the Taylor era so far (DJ Reader). Awuzie is also in that conversation. They’ve hit on a ton.

It probably is indeed Hendrickson at this point, but idk that nobody else is even close. We have the #4 rush D and Reader is one of the biggest reasons for that (literally). Awuzie has also been playing like a top 10 CB all season. And Spain has been our best offensive lineman, and has helped the two Joe’s immensely.

I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Cris Crocker was another under the radar signing and he paid off bigtime

Out of 49 running backs with 100 carries or more, he was... 28th in YPC 22nd in EPA per rush 26th in success rate 36th in touchdowns per attempt Rushing yards per game is just a breakdown of total rushing yards, which is an awful way of judging a players performance. It's a volume stat. Cedric was second in the league in rushing yards per game because he had the most carries per game of any RB. Despite only playing 13 games, he finished 6th in the league in carries at 301, on pace for 368 carries.
