February 18, 201511 yr The 28-year-old Rivers appeared in 12 games (three starts) for Buffalo in 2014, notching 16 tackles. He did not start a game after Week Six. He spent the previous two seasons with the Giants (2012-2013) after a four-season stint with Cincinnati. (2008-2011). Rivers might appeal to clubs looking for outside linebacking depth in 4-3 schemes. Bills release LB Keith Rivers | ProFootballTalk
February 18, 201511 yr Author If you were the Bengals would you kick the tires again? Vet minimum for a former top ten draft choice.

He could take over weak side LB and Burfict to the middle.
February 18, 201511 yr I would put him on the 90 man and see. He probably won't go for that , though. It is an area where depth is badly needed.
February 18, 201511 yr If they could sign him and Maualuga have both of them on the outside with Burfict in the middle. Also V. Rey, Nico Johnson and Lamur backing them up.
February 18, 201511 yr No, Bengals do not need another linebacker that doesnt know how to keep his head on a swivel.
February 19, 201511 yr If they could sign him and Maualuga have both of them on the outside with Burfict in the middle. Also V. Rey, Nico Johnson and Lamur backing them up. So you want to take a pro bowl linebacker who was already one of the best in the league even while playing weak side linebacker and move him to the middle where we Dont know if he would do as well? Makes sense... You keep Burfict where he is and you find a middle backer and potentially move Rey Rey back to the Sam backer like he was his rookie year.
February 19, 201511 yr I didn't realize he was still in the league and didn't realize he was only 28. Seven year career in the NFL, vested in the league's pension program. Guessing Rivers will move on to other things based on his 2014 stats.

If they keep Burfict at weak they need to draft Luc from UC to play the middle.
