Not if there is no real value for KR/PR. He's not going to beat out Joseph or Hall so he's the nickel at best.
Zero chance of him beating out Joseph or Hall, but yes to nickel back and possible KR. The Bengals probably are 2 years away from having a possible opening at CB1 or CB2 so that has to limit his upside barring injury.
Thanks for the responses. I went ahead and picked him up - I have Joseph as a starter already and this would give me a little injury protection. I have not read much in terms of whether the Bengals would use him as a return man - but I wonder if he could be like a Richard Marshall in a nickel package - maybe fewer tackles, but decent PDs, and the potential for a few INT or KR TDs.
Its possible that the Bengals nickel back might be on the field quite a bit the way the division is changing. Baltimore and Pittsburgh seemed to use 3 receiver sets more than ever last year Cleveland bringing in Holmgren probably means more focus on the passing game there.
