The question that I bring to you is:  Do you think that Andre did enough to "prove it" to the Bengals?  

I have to think that with Andre being 31, and so often injured over his career, he and his agent will be looking for one last $core to secure his retirement fund.  

So, if you are one that believes that Andre will be a Bengal this season:  What sort of offer is he worth/will the Bengals offer/Andre be willing to settle for?  Personally, I feel like his agent might be looking for something like 2 years 4-5M/per and at least half of the total value guaranteed.  When healthy, I see him as worth at least that much.  But the question always is, can he stay healthy all season long?

I wont comment on what Andre's worth because I really don't know? I do think however that he looked decent compared to the lack of talent on the OL last year. Had we been stacked on the OL, we would probably be screaming not to resign Andre. But until we see what unfolds this year, I think we really have no choice but to resign him if the deal seems fair.
