Bengals said Trey Flowers is looking good and may get some playing time soon at corner...

Trey Flowers started 4 years at Oklahoma State at Safety.
His senior year, he was a 2nd team All American at Safety.

Why is everyone trying to make him a corner...what am I missing??

The college game and its center hash marks are closer together than those of the NFL. The college game sees a bigger open side of the field and a smaller closed side of the field. That's a key difference. It's common for NFL evaluators to project college prospects to a different position for NFL competition. Flowers has the physical play and length that a lot of teams value in a NFL corner. NFL red line teams find length attractive.

Hash marks are way wider I college, not closer

So more Impact than 1st Round pick LJ Collier and 1st Round Pick Rashad Penny have most weeks?

Also was not thrown at either.

I think flowers will be decent in a diff scheme. He obviously didn’t like the way they had CB’s playing in Seattle.

Missed opportunity by the other team.

Your right I typed it backwards. The rest of the post is correct except for that glaring error.

Thanks for posting the correction. :2thumbs:

Wonder what happened after such a promising start.

He's not a starter there yet. Their starters played the whole game. Flowers played 14 snaps in sub-packages. I expect that number to increase, (especially with Eli Apple starting).

Later edit: Apologies. You have already mentioned this.
