Looking at the strongest DLs in the NFL by pass rush wins. A lot to like about what the Steelers, Bills, and Bucs have built. For the Bengals, the Trey Hendrickson effect is significant.

RT @pauldehnerjr: Been calling Trey Mariano Rivera when people talk about his game and this chart properly illustrates my point.

Join millions who have switched to Grok.

Trey Hendrickson is the best defensive closer in the NFL and it is not close.

RT @JamesRapien: Matt Lee getting team reps at center. I expect him to make his preseason debut on Saturday against the Colts. https://t.co….

Only a few days after this game, Knight is no longer running with the 1s. Not a great look only a few months after this pick was made at least a round earlier than it probably should have been.

The worst part for New Orleans is they’ve actually drafted pretty well when they have picks. They just never have any. Completely confusing move.

This is a pretty baffling trade by the Saints. They’ve made the least picks in the NFL the last 6 years and have one of the weakest rosters in the NFL. And they trade 2 picks for a 2nd year, soon to be 28 year old WR3?. Okay then.

Seems like a good sign for Adin Huntington making the Browns 53-man roster.

RT @char_cliff: Jalen Rivers back in as the starting right guard today.

Speaking of swing OTs, here are a few young players we like that look to be on the outs in deep OL rooms:. ➖Logan Brown (MIN).➖Javon Foster (JAX).➖Cameron Williams (PHI). We had strong prospect grades on all of them and they’ve graded well this preseason.

Tough news for Volson and the Bengals. They can still piece together a formidable OL, but it will require moves. Current group:.T - Brown, Mims.G - Fairchild, Rivers, Patrick.C - Karras, Lee.Flex - Ford. Potential moves:.▪️Sign Risner.▪️Trade for/claim a swing OT.

RT @JoeGoodberry: We haven't seen enough of him this summer to know if he's actually any different than he's been in previous years. At t….

James Pearce Jr. quick two week preseason summary:. ▪️Led all rookie EDGEs in pressures.▪️Highest run defense grade of any Round 1/2 rookie at EDGE. 🚀.

RT @bengals_sans: Joe Burrow dime for a TD to Charlie Jones. Also check out the dominant jumpset from Amarius Mims here. .

Looking back at where LBs were drafted in this class:. Picks 1-33: Schwesinger (33).34-106 (‼️) : Knight (49), Nick Martin (75).107-132: 5 LBs taken. The Bengals and 49ers, two teams that go their own way often, completely misread the strengths of this draft class.

DKJ is PFF's 6th lowest graded rookie defender through 2 preseason games. The team wanted a Pratt replacement and so far got what it bargained for.

Early returns on Demetrius Knight Jr. haven’t been great. The tradeoff with overdrafting a 25y/o at a low value position at the expense of BPA was an immediate high-floor starter. Right now, that plan is at risk.

RT @JayRBP: @GridironGrading I could really get behind a line of. Orlando.Fairchild.Karras.Risner.Mims. Ford.Rivers.Logan Brown.Patrick or….

Bengals rookie LG Dylan Fairchild has looked every bit of the part so far. Fairchild is PFF’s highest graded rookie OL through 2 weeks of the preseason, just ahead of Grey Zabel. It’s preseason, but there is more confidence seeing these reps against 1s. Could be a real hit.

If we are the Bengals, we are keeping our eyes on the backend of the best OL rooms in the NFL. Start with the Vikings. Two we are watching and their charting through 2 preseason games:. OG Joe Huber - 84 pass block snaps, 2 pressures (79.6 pass block grade).OT Logan Brown - 34.
