A necessary makeover on the depth chart…
It’s very clear Taylor and his staff would’ve liked to dramatically overhaul the roster last year after getting hired but ran out of time.
They had plenty of time this offseason.
The Bengals were one of free agency’s biggest spenders, adding D.J. Reader and Trae Waynes to the defense, to name a few of the big splashes. They sought out strong, proven players with leadership qualities and improved the roster before even hitting the field for camp.
