What I am mad about is the lack of getting anything done on the Oline.
Both Lawson and WJ3 were widely considered to be Tier 1 free agents.
Many Tier 1 free agents (Moton, Scherff etc) never even hit the free market as their franchises wrapped them up or tagged them.
It's pretty staggering that the team with the fifth most cap space let two tier one free agents walk.
For my money the Bengals should have extended them last year - although I appreciate I was likely in a minority with this view. Instead they'll end up overpaying an inferior CB in Waynes and extending an inferior DE in Hubbard.
