For those upset about Dre being given $52.5 million, would you then be mad if he left because the team "never pays their own?"
I'm not asking to be a d--- but just curious, from the fan point of view.

I do understand some of this is rooted in the "Bengals salary cap" they operate under. But here's the thing, all: Bengals.com is owned by the team. Geoff works for the team. Not quite sure what you're expecting there.

Now, yes, we have also reported the salary cap the Bengals choose to operate with. This is not a tacit approval, merely reporting. Obviously that is a source of frustration/anger in general.

At this point, the fans saw Ogbuehi struggle and don't want to see him on the field anymore, especially at LT.
I don't think fans are necessarily upset about DK's deal, but more upset that he was kept over Whit and Zeitler.
Last, the fans want to win now, as it feels like the window is closing. By allowing Whit and Zeitler to walk, the fans are expecting the Bengals OL to be a sieve and the Bengals to miss the playoffs.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Patience has paid off!

Sorry for Party Rocking!
