Twitter reacts to Bengals landing Sheldon Rankins, who had a monster game against them

The Cincinnati Bengals have been active in free agency so far this offseason, as they have addressed needs on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.

Arguably the biggest position of need entering the offseason, however, was the defensive tackle position, especially with DJ Reader hitting the open market.

With a visit scheduled for Reader to the Detroit Lions on Thursday, the Bengals needed to, at worst, find some depth for the interior of the defensive line.

Thankfully, the Bengals did just that with Sheldon Rankins, one of the better interior pass-rushers in football.
