we really need Wonnum back, for at minimum obvious passing downs. Another edge that can get to the QB would be really big for this defense

I’m sure the Bengals and their fans felt good about getting to 2-2 with Washington and Carolina on the schedule after an 0-2 start.  
 

The panic button will be smashed when they leave Charlotte 0-4 Sunday.

31-24 Carolina

He needed a little pick me up, it's been a rough week+ for him.

Zavala worries me. He was beyond horrible in the past, but I'm hoping he's improved. If you're going to keep an eye on anyone it's Zavala.

I really don't get him starting over BC unless they don't like the Tackle depth currently

We've never seen him play.  His PFF grades are between 50-60.  All indications are he is a JAG.

He was highly valued coming out of college. Stop judging him by his rookie season in which the entire offense except for Adam T, failed miserably.

Wonnum is a major addition especially with our defense hungry to show we’re much better than we’ve shown but we’ve been put in ridiculous situations the first two games. But I’m just as excited to see Barno he has a very high potential to be a pass rush specialist. I’m even thinking he could have a Brian Burns type of impact, he’s very fast very bendable around the edge. If he can put it all together like a lot of DEs do in their third year with what’s in front of him two strong by vets he should be able to flourish. We still have impact guys on the shelf we just might have to win and compete this year.

He looked good in the preseason and wasn't a disaster on Sunday. I think he can develop into our IOL version of BC(who was pretty shaky early in his career too).

If Zavala progresses, we will finally have something we haven't had for YEARS. Some actual quality OL depth behind a quality OL. 

This is why I have always been a favor of continuing to draft OL every single draft. That's how you build and develop a stalwart OL that can buoy your entire offense for years to come.
