A veteran would want to come in and play for a contender. I don't think they are committed to Anderson as the 3rd guy. While I tend to agree, I question the Bengals wanting to come off precious cap dollars to sign one with Joe and Tee and eventually, Ja'Marr hanging out there. To say nothing of some of the quality D players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To say nothing of some of the quality D players. I agree. If you look at the KC roster last year, they relied heavily on young players and in particular the 2022 draft picks (which they did really well with). The more huge contracts you have on the roster and pending , the more critical it is to get young players on the field and playing. As well as we have done in FA over the last few years, it will be draft picks going forward that keep the team competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted March 26, 2023 Report Share Posted March 26, 2023 I don't think they are committed to Tycen Anderson as the 3rd safety. He didn't play a snap last season and hasn't shown anything yet. He'll get a chance but it's not like he would be hard to beat out. They can sign a cheap vet who may or may not beat out Mike Thomas or Tycen Anderson. Brandon Wilson would be a longshot to make the 53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's give him a full training camp and maybe we will see where he is at in his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the market will drop all the way done because there will be too many vets for too few seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, do you consider missing most of the season with an injury to be a recommendation for Anderson's prospects? They aren't going to cut him and he'll get a chance in camp to show he deserves to be on the 53, but he's certainly not a lock and hasn't shown anything yet.

I think his prospects are absolutely fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted March 28, 2023 Report Share Posted March 28, 2023 Yes, they redshirted him instead of cutting him. Do you think he was going to beat out ST captain Mike Thomas for a roster spot? They carried 4 safeties last year and Bell, Bates, and Hill were locks. He'll get a chance to go to camp this year and possibly show something. But he hasn't shown anything yet.

He can be a special teams ace at the bare minimum. Certainly was at Toledo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
