In house options to help our team

The Bengals have been hit with the injury bug. The Bengals are always Raving about Versatility. The Bengals are almost out of options at WR and LB. There may be some help to be found on the team already, a few players have displayed skill sets that might translate well to other positions a bit like Peko has been used as a FB.

Consider our Best tackler on Special teams...is a RB, He may not have the size for it but Cedric Peerman has displayed the skills to shed blocks, tackle and put forth effort. Why not give him a try at LB?

Allot has been said about using Dennard to keep Adam Jones fresh enough to return punts, but after a few first downs so he gets a breather why not send him on a few seam routes as a WR? Following in Deon Sanders and Devin Hesters footsteps.

Taylor Mays seems like he is not being used much, and has an uncanny ability to level other players, I would like to send him out as a FB and see if he can lay out a LB or two as a FB on outside runs or screens. Lord knows our run blocking hasn't been great.

Margus Hunt is having trouble catching on in the pass rush rotation but has great speed for a giant man, why not see if he could improve our run blocking as a TE every once in a while? Plus I would love to see him catch a bubble screen in the redzone, his hands can't be worse than Greshams right?

I feel with the injuries we have sustained it might be time to get creative, especially since I don't see our FO making any moves to help the team. Which if any of these seem like a good idea to others or am I just panicing?
