Idk man. From what I've seen through the years, you meet to discuss whether you're a fit, THEN you talk $$$, not the other way around.

I'm not saying we definitely low balled him, but it's a possibility. Especially when you've got rumors floating that $750k is what we're looking to spend. 

As for Florida offering him a raise, that doesn't necessarily mean the Bengals offer was close. The NFL brings with it potential for Grantham to be a HC again. So just threatening Florida with leaving for an NFL team could've gotten them to bring out more money...regardless of what Cincy offered. Of course, on the flip side of this, it's possible that Grantham simply used the Bengals as leverage to get a bigger payday. So maybe the amount of our offer was moot.

Again, all speculation.

Didn't you post a tweet from crazy Becky about a lowball offer that Fletcher Page debunked that she chose to ignore and wasn't  the 750 a number she pulled out of her empty head?

And didn't she also say Rex would never work for what the Bengals would pay?

Personally, I don't think money would be the deciding factor for Rex.  He wants to coach and nobody else is calling.
