Also this:
Offseason Grade: A
Free Agency Grade: Good
Draft Grade: B+

The Bengals' offseason strategy this year could be taught in a clinic. They just made the Super Bowl but knew they needed to overhaul their offensive line. Rather than pay top-of-the-market money to the best offensive lineman they could find (Jacksonville…), they spread their investment in multiple Tier-2 free agents in the first hours of free agency. Guard Alex Cappa and center Ted Karras represented two clear upgrades. They had the patience to wait Dallas out and then recruit La’el Collins to play right tackle without surrendering a draft pick to make it happen. All of a sudden, four-fifths of the Bengals' offensive line is in good shape, giving the team the flexibility to draft any position.

That led to draft picks such as Daxton Hill — a versatile defensive back out of Michigan. Hill lined up primarily in the slot for the Wolverines, but nobody is quite sure where he fits in Cincinnati’s secondary because the team now has that luxury of just adding good players and piecing it together later.

The Bengals with Joe Burrow at quarterback should remain contenders due to this offseason.

Only things still on my wish list are:
- A vet OL who could play multiple positions and good enough to be a serviceable starter (no one wants to see Prince or Adeniji back out there)
- A vet WR to hold down the WR4 spot and not give us too much worry if they have to fill in for any of Chase, Higgins, or Boyd

Get those two things and this offseason was a slam dunk.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Patience has paid off!

Sorry for Party Rocking!
