April 6th Bengals Cap Space

JJ is a great receiver, but a team with future cap issues needs drafted players to enable them to keep a strong roster. If you look at the Chiefs, they traded Hill for multiple draft picks, got rid of his salary and used those picks to build a great defense. The proposal to go after JJ is just the opposite.

The Rams needed a QB and a LT but had a great defense. 

The Bengals do not have a great defense, not close. I love offense, but I don't feel we can reach the Super Bowl with a bad defense, no matter how good the offense. The recipe to beat us would be to keep our offense off the field by controlling T.O.P. against our weak defense.
I'm not undervaluing Tee at all. He's a really good WR. But JJ is an all pro. If you have the chance to add that and not cripple your finances, you jump on that, in my opinion. First round picks aren't the end-all when it comes to roster building, especially if you hit on your 2-4th rounders, which we do more often than not. We have the base core of this defense, aside from a true NT, already on the team. There are no defenders left in FA or this draft that, in my opinion, would take our defense to another level in year 1, like JJ would our offense. Imagine having two AP wideouts you can literally line up anywhere. Now imagine opposing defenses having to adjust to that. Toss in Geseki feasting with the attention those two would command. Or ZM / CB busting off big runs due to consistently seeing 2-deep safeties.

The Bengals have cap space, they continually roll over unused for future extensions AND the cap is going up every year. With the way WR salaries are going up (even mediocre ones are getting paid), paying two WR $60+ million between the two is on the horizon anyways, if they're "worth it". Jamarr and JJ are, and will be, for the foreseeable future.

I wouldn't be worried about our offense spending much time on the sidelines, this offense would be unstoppable (with protection).
