Default punt returner and kick returner

Im sorry but i dont see one on this team,the bengals will have a great coverage team,but once again we will be sorely lacking for a PR and a KR...

I watched dallas and sandiego and they both had an abundance at that position,hopefully we can snag someone who can be descent??????

I know what you mean. It seems every year we have hope for a different player to get it done. I hope somebody can establish the position this year. It's been a weakness for the Bengals.

Caldwell could be the guy. Other than that, I don't think that the Bengals have one.

We really had a tough draft to juggle around. I know a lot of people wanted a college
'stud' drafted. I agree that they can be total game changers and are underated.

The Browns have a kid that was pretty impressive against the Jets,Steptoe,who will be the #6 WR there,if he makes it at all. Could be another waiver wire guy to watch for.

He's got a shot but considering that they have TJ and Chad, then they drafted Simpson, Caldwell and Urrutia. Add to that how much they like Maxwell. That's five receivers if Urrutia gets placed on the practice squad. And Chatman has to be considered as well especially considering that he could be the 3rd receiver.

Just some things to consider.

As was I! If his focus is on the return game and he does not have the added pressure of lining up every down at CB against our opponents #1 WR I tihnk he can be very effective... Oh yeah, IF he can hold on to the ball.

I'd like to see Deltha get most of the shots at PR, maybe keep an eye on the waiver wire as well and/or Chatman behind him.

I'd like to see how Caldwell does in the pre-season at KR and if Holt can protect the ball he may be an option again.

The thing that makes it hard is that Chatman and Maxwell may looked the best so far to be the #3 WR and so I think Holt may be the odd man out in the end unless he has a big pre-season.

I don't know if he has ever done it before, and he is a gunner on punt teams, but why not take a look at Corey Lynch?
Dude has been a play maker his whole life. Yeah, he might not have top flight speed. But with the options we do have, why not but the ball in his hands and see what he can do?

well, I don't want him to blow or break anything.
maybe I would rather have him on coverage, blowing other people up!
