It doesn't look so good if the corners are Gardner, Blackmon, Taylor-Britt, Edwards and Mitchell, Jones!

Another thing is, how many of these guys can actually play the slot? Most of them are more outside guys. Maybe we will use more safeties in the slot this year, so Wohler or Thomas.

On top of that, Jaylon Jones, didn't seem to fit into Lou's plans, and Taylor-Brit was awful last year.
Taylor Britt played very good under Lou Anarumo, last season he had off the field issues and once again the Bengals defense was terrible with a glaring weakness at pass rush. Deion Sanders can’t cover guys for 7 seconds.

Taylor Britt is a great insurance policy for Ward and also Walley
