We can sign/extend almost every single starter that's coming off the books in 2016 while still being able to kick tires with some garbage heap FAs and sign our role players as well. We'll probably lose either Sanu or Jones due to another team paying them more than they're worth to us. Past that, this team will likely be very much intact (as long as the Bengals want it to be at least) even with an A.J. extension.
Let's ignore that A.J.'s extension would only see an increase to his salary cap hit by approximately $4-ish million per year compared to what we're going to be paying him in 2015. But hey, let's not worry about all of that, we can sit here and throw out huge, random numbers like $50 million and $80 million and pretend that we know something about the NFL salary cap and how things work.
I've been a very, very big "MB hater" in the past, but I'm not going to bash him without legitimate reason. Your statement here just doesn't make any sense.
