As of today, it seems certain pick 18 now needs to be a RT who can immediately start.

I'm not feeling good about Tee being a significant factor this season based on believing a tagged player who requested a trade isn't going to be in the best of mindset to win.

Trent brown is also still out there, and a few others. Trent brown would likely be an upgrade over Jonah, IMO.

Tart would be a miss. He has had some very productive years… last year being an outlier.

I find it odd the Rankins signing hasn't been "officially" announced yet. What is the holdup here? Everyone else has signed but him...

just had to wait for his butt to get into the building i guess

Yeah Rankins is official now - I guess they are not announcing stuff until they can actually do the presser?

Bengals generally didnt announce things till they were actually Signed

I'd be down for them signing Brown as long as it doesn't break the bank. I'm not worried about the internet rumblings I've read describing him as having a bad attitude. I think players snap out of that when winning occurs and if they are satisfied with their contract.

A lot of recognizable names, but I'm not really sure where they are in their careers at the moment.

You’re right, they could certainly take the next step this year.

Sometimes a bad attitude is a good quality for a DT to have.

Trent has played RT, we are not moving OBjr. That is not a even a consideration.

I was responding to a poster saying Trent Brown is available in FA as a RT.

In reality the Burrow deal probably signaled the end of guys like Reader, Hubbard, Bates, and Mixon.

It is what it is. Burrow is worth more than them COMBINED.


I actually think we’ve been managing our cap exceptionally with the Burrow contract.

Since the Zac Taylor era, I think the bengals front office has done amazing. About as good as anyone in the league, except maybe a couple franchises.

This off season has been a nightmare. There aren’t any good D lineman or OL left in FA that will make this team better than the 2023 version. We had a ton of cap space, ridiculous amount. If I told you before FA, that with 70M in cap space we wouldn’t be able to sign Jonnah Williams, Reader, Tee wouldn’t be given a long term deal, we cut Mixon to cap space, and didn’t resign Chido…what would you say we spent that $70M on?

We resigned back ups: Cody ford, Irwin, Gaither, Sample.
New 1 year deal to a 3M te. 2 year deal to a DT, 2 year deal to a 7M S.

That’s the off-season in a nutshell. You don’t think the $70M could have been spent better? I mean, at least lock up Tee. FFS, this 2024 team is worse than the 2023 team.

You have absolutely no way of knowing that.  Burrow missed too much of the 2023 season to establish any sort of baseline for comparison.

Roster wise it is 100% worse. Then currently don't have a starting NT or RT on the roster.

Had no idea Rankins had two achilles injuries. Yikes.
