(08-20-2019, 12:35 PM)THE PISTONS Wrote: I just wish they signed 2-3 quality upgrades. The Rams in addition to hiring McVay did that too.

We could have really improved this year. Bringing in a Ram or 2 that knew the scheme would have been nice too.

The Bengals still have $19 mill in cap space after Boyd's extension.
The following money went to outside FAs - Miller ($5.3 mill), Webb ($3 mill), Wynn ($1.3 mill) = $9.6 mill.
Add that to $19 mill and it's $28.6 mill.
It would be even more if they didn't re-sign some of internal FAs like Hart ($5.9 mill), Brown ($4.7 mill), Eifert ($4 mill), Dennard ($4.5 mill), etc.

Let's say, for example, they brought in JaWuan James and CJ Mosley instead of re-signing Hart and Brown. Assuming they signed everyone else except for Hart and Brown, they would have had $29.6 mill in cap space before signing James and Mosley.
Mosley and James went for a combined average of just under $30 mill with only $21 mill counting against their teams' caps this year.
It would have set the team up with a franchise RT and ILB for 4 years, but it likely could mean no contract extension for AJ (at least not before FA next year).

Bottom line: they could have brought in 2-3 quality upgrades (although they believe the people they brought in are quality players), as you said, although I am near-certain that a decent chunk of the remaining cap was reserved for an AJ Green extension.

Patience has paid off!

Sorry for Party Rocking!
