Capable backup forced into a starter role. Could do well as a rotational player.

Besides playing out of control at times I love the energy he is bringing to the field. Lot of fun to watch and has good speed IMO, there are tools to work with regarding E Jackson.

Minter is gone, signed with the Bungles.

I agree. He certainly outplayed Morrison. But he is undersized for the position, so unless he earns it by beating out whoever Ballard drafts at ILB, then he's best a reserve.

Bengals signed ILB Kevin Minter to a one-year contract.

It looks like Ballard saw this roster and thought it needed an almost complete remake. If you look at the roster as divided up into thirds he seem to think that you can fill out the middle third pretty effectively and with free agents. No real stars, but hopefully solid pieces. The top third already has a few players but desperately needs play makers. Play makers rarely make free agency and tend to break the bank. I'm hoping for pass rusher, pass rusher and more pass rushers. Throw in a cb if you can and we are on our way.

It's a sound strategy. Hopefully it pays off.

I feel similiar.

I keep using the word "stabilize" to describe our free agency model. Get each position up to NFL average and get your difference makers from the draft.

Hope it works.
