9. Cincinnati Bengals- Tennessee DE Derek Barnett

Offensively: 13th Yds/G, 24th PPG

Defensively: 17th Yds/G, 8th PPG

Team Needs: OL, DE, DT, MLB, CB, FS

Cincinnati needs pass rushing. Why not take the guy that broke Reggie White’s sack record? Barnett hasn’t tested through the roof but the tape doesn’t lie.

Any time you break a NFL Hall of Famer’s record and arguably best defensive lineman of all time it shouldn’t make a difference if he didn’t run a good 40. Barnett can flat our get to the quarterback and that’s the name of the game in this league.
