Bengals Cap Strategy

We do a great job of managing the cap, but probably need to follow more of the Ravens model when it comes to FA in the future.  Of course, I don't really think it makes a difference if we still have Marvin at the helm.

That was the point I was trying to make. They restructure to keep getting cap room and continuing to add/keep players. The Bengals view contracts as set in stone and also conservatively hold a large amount of it for contract extensions that may or may not come.
