Bengals could benefit by spending more in free agency

This has been the point that I, and many others, have been making for multiple off-seasons. I'm not asking for the team to "win free agency". I'm asking them to add real talent to get us over the hump. An actual impact free agent and/or player coming into his prime here and there would help tremendously. By overvaluing comp picks and our dumpster diving approach to free agency, the team has not progressed. Treading water helps nothing. While we stay the same, other teams are passing us by.

I get tired of getting blasted because I want the team to take a chance on a proven player instead of an over the hill vet, comp pick, or UDFA. A couple of pieces here and there and this team is a contender. Instead, we continue the same old tired approach that has not generated post season success in almost 30 years.

Exactly, just go from 30th to 18th or so for Pete's sake.
