Bengals reportedly "making push" to keep Vincent Rey

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

I like him, and I want them to re-sign him, but not at 3yr/$15m.

3yr/$6-7.5m is more reasonable.

I just can't imagine having Rey Maualuga and Vincent Rey both on $5m/yr deals, basically playing the same position (Vincent Rey's playing time increases when Maualuga's decreases, generally) as long as Burfict is healthy.

Then again, having plenty of cap space and squandering it on paying a mediocre-at-best player's absurdly front loaded contract so they can say they used all their cap space and can't sign anyone good is 100% a Bengals FA move. (Hello, Maualuga's $7.1375m 2015 cap hit)

Rather than paying both Maualuga and Rey both $5m/yr, why not just get one REALLY good every down linebacker for like $8-9m/yr? Bengals FO will never get it.
