That's why I didn't lead off with stats - I simply spoke to some of what you offered. I don't know that they're all that useful, regardless of the source. As you noted, everything's different team to team.

I just don't see Wilson as being an elite coverage backer. I think that Cincy defense has been fair to middlin' most of his career and at its apex it had Bell and Bates on the back end (which helps your backers a fair bit) not to mention Germaine Pratt who has been a reasonably effective complement in coverage to Wilson in some of those seasons (and a complete mess last year).

And I think it may turn out that the Bengals bought high on both players who were more complementary than they'd like.

It's a real big year for both guys and both entering their age 29 seasons aren't exactly on the upswing anymore.

He's an NFL player and a top 5% athlete for his position. He's nothing resembling a perfect player, but he has a role.
He would absolutely nuke some of those passes to the RBs in the flats that kicked our ass so bad this year too.

Sometimes you need a little crazy on your defense.

It'll make you pull your hair out at times, but that sort of reckless abandon has a purpose of its own.

I've talked about that with stolen bases in baseball before. A guy that's merely a threat to run is sometimes worth the out he creates on occasion by trying to take an extra bag or getting thrown out. Oh sure, there's a breaking point (typically around 70% success, IMO) but I think a guy that goes out there and steals 60 bases on 80 attempts is more impactful than someone who steals 25 on 30 attempts.

The latter has a better success rate but the former is in the back of your mind whenever you're making a pitch.

Now, you can't have EVERYONE out there giving outs away. But having one that makes the opposition think is worth having.

You can't have a team full of Willie Gay kinda players. But having one out there that might just knock you into next week if you don't have your head around AS you're catching the ball? That's worth something.

I think he's signing with Miami anyhow so it will be moot.
He's a great 4th LB with some specific abilities. If he's inexpensive, you absolutely do that. You need depth, and he's experienced depth with years in the system.

Now, if Spags doesn't want him back, whatever. But he's not less useful because you didn't like the pick in the first place. As a cheap depth signing, he's a great option.

It's pretty obvious the Chiefs had no interest in bringing him back.

I guess that I just suck at evaluation or there's something that we just don't know. The Saints had no interest in bringing him back cheap. The Chiefs had no interest in bringing him back cheap. He signed with the Dolphins supposedly cheap. I can't find any numbers, but it sounds like he likely signed for league minimum or not much more. At that price, I don't see why he couldn't have returned to KC. Something just doesn't add up

Good draft for LBers and DL... I suspect we are going to have defense heavy draft.

He might be difficult to deal with.

We forget that the coaches have to be in the facility with these guys for like 50 hours a week during the season. Talent and ability will take you far but in a league where a lot of that is equal, I’d choose the guy I get along with 10 times out of 10.

There’s alot of stuff we the public are not privy to.

Maybe the guys they have now practice harder or are better in the classroom? Maybe the coaches just like their personalities better? Who knows?
