Just when it seemed like the Bengals might be done at cornerback…along came Alexander.

Alexander is a big-time steal.

At just one year and $4 million, the Bengals get a probable starting slot corner with major upside. Like his former Vikings teammate Waynes, he’s got a decent attendance sheet, is wicked aggressive against the run and strong in coverage. If he played well all year, he’s a candidate for a massive extension.
