And they mentioned who our 2018 free agents are, as follows:
Bengals 2018 free agents
PLAYER POS. AGE 2017 AAV STATUS
James Wright WR 25 $567,456 UFA
A.J. McCarron QB 26 $600,413 RFA
Rey Maualuga ILB 29 $5,000,000 UFA
Kevin Huber P 31 $2,800,000 UFA
Jeremy Hill RB 24 $938,401 UFA
Clark Harris LS 32 $990,000 UFA
Marquis Flowers OLB 24 $574,670 UFA
Tyler Eifert TE 26 $2,064,000 UFA
Will Clarke DE 25 $705,095 UFA
Vontaze Burfict OLB 26 $4,751,000 UFA
Russell Bodine C 24 $669,114 UFA
Considering this Free Agency period is rough, with Zeitler, Whit and Dre hitting free agency at the same year, it's nice to know that next year, really, the only two key players hitting Free Agency are Burfict and Eifert. Both of whom have their own red flags that will lower their price tag.
Hill is reaching free agency as well but, honestly, I don't even know if we'll even want him back, let alone if he'd be difficult to re-sign.
I think it's possible that we can sign all 3 big free agents, considering we won't have a huge problem next off season haha.
And, in addition, if we don't cut them this off season, we may be lucky enough to lose Maualuga and Bodine next off season too!
I'm looking forward to a much easier off season next year, especially after we win a playoff game or 2.
Thanks for this. Most likely a new HC coach as well. Looking bright in 2018.
