Anyone who knows ball knows that the Cincinnati Bengals were going to have quite a lot of high-end talent on their 53-man roster entering the 2025 season.
Thanks to Trey Hendrickson's pay raise, the Bengals' best defender is secure for this year, and he headlines a roster mostly full of offensive superstars like Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins.
Hendrickson might be the most valuable individual member of any defense in the NFL, given the Bengals' lingering issues on that side of the ball and his singularly-generated pass rush. And it's not like the offense is perfect, either, with questionable depth on the offensive line being a notable red flag.
