Bengals have interest in signing McCoy per Diana russini or however u spell it. That would make this a top 5 dline without a question and a speller for geno who I’m still adamant played half the season with an injury. Sorry admins wasn’t sure if this went in free agency or not.

Kind of surprising as McCoy is more of a 3-tech like Geno.
Wouldn't be against this as long as we can still extend Boyd and AJ, McCoy could be spendy and i heard he wanted to go to a contender. We are under the radar as we finished last in the Division last year and pretty much have a new coaching staff.

Cap casualty, owed $13 million this year. This would be his 10th season. IDK. Colts also have interest. I think he fits ZT's character mold. Could be a good pick up for a couple of years.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

I guess it would be similar to Suh playing next to Donald last season.
McCoy said he wants to go to a contender, so that should knock us out of the bidding.

Yeah, saw where the Stains were interested....he'll probably wind up there, because, why not?

I'd be shocked if they actually pull this off but it's exciting to see that they're exploring it. It looks like Mixon's advocating on Twitter looks to be getting through to some people up top.
Adding McCoy would give the defense another toy and what better way to help out a suspect LB corps than a dominant pass rush? DT is already a crowded position but you worry about that later on.
It'd certainly be interesting if McCoy were to choose the "unproven" Zac Taylor culture over the new darling of the NFL media or another contender. That's why I'm not getting my hopes up but I'll happily admit I was wrong if he does choose us.

Would be a huge get but I actually like our DT situation right now with Billings, Ringo, Atkins, and Glasgow.

I guess they couldn't convince McCoy to take a paycut and extend him for several years.
So they signed Suh..... for 3 mil less....
They really effed this whole thing up, they drafted 3 DB's instead of finding a potential McCoy replacement.

If the Browns get him, we're in trouble. It would be nice if he lands here, but thanks to MB, we can't have nice things here.

What are they going to do with McCoy, run the old Double Eagle? In order to do that, you have to have a pair of awesome interior LBs.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Never been a big fan of McCoy, he has an attitude problem.
It would be an interesting add, but why not spend the money (earlier in free agency) in a place of need? Guess the talent isn't out there.

Duffner is familiar with him. That may be the key if this signing was to happen.
But too many other suiters. I doubt they get into a bidding war.

We're really going to thumb our noses at a 6x Pro Bowler with 6 sacks last year, who was rated highly by PFF?
This is the same boards that hypes guys like Cody Core every year?
As for what we'd do with McCoy, I imagine the Rams hated having that problem with Donald and Suh.. all the way to the Super Bowl.

Yeah he's still a good player, but it's tough to see the Bengals landing a fish like that. Even at his age (31).
Just hope that McCoy really loves him some Duffner.

Webb and Miller = Upgrades
McCoy = No need
It's funny. Bizarro world. Conditioned to not want good free agents.

I think we are mostly preemptively calling "sour grapes" on this one so we can say he's not going to help the Browns when they land him and we don't. And I also bet those golden tickets make the chocolate taste terrible.
