Sure, he is a talented player, but I want guys that fit the culture.  It feels odd to say this, but I have confidence in the Bengals to put together the best roster.

Dunlap was one guy, but his negativity was excessive.  Instead of handling a demotion as an opportunity to show his value and earn the spot back, he whined and had a potato chip-eating zoom meeting.  

I think the departure of Green, Dunlap, Atkins, WJIII, and a few others signaled a total change of the personnel to "his guys" that weren't still "Marvin guys" and he was able to build a very competitive and unique culture.  

Green played like crap, poor Geno was legit hurt.... he's a pro's pro. He is still at home, so that was the real deal. Dunlap just didn't wanna do the dirty work, he wanted stats it seems. We see how this defense works when the players are willing to sacrifice personal accolades for the betterment of the unit.
