The bengals are not going to not sign any FAs. They also are not going to over pay. Let’s be a little patient, the only big loss that wasn’t expected was bell. But we more or less offset that with Pratt.
Perine, hurst and bates where all expected to leave or can be easily replaced.
This is a good place for us to be in. Good teams lose good players every year.
We’ve been on the right side of FA with Awouzie, Hurst, Hendrickson, Hilton and Reader. All were let go. We’ll see with the players we lost this week. One things for sure they either got more money ( mostly tied to upfront or guaranteed) or a long term deal. Right now the biggest worries are TE & S. Can we man those positions and not regress? That’s a very legitimate worry today mind you but maybe not in May. We will just have to see.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
