We have some guys coming up soon (AJ and Dalton to name 2) and others who have big contracts (Geno and Carlos).
How would you react if MB suddenly showed no loyalty to aging stars? BTW, Clay signed with the Rams and will be playing where he played in college and close to home again. Whitt is a team mate.
Cuts are coming. Trades are possible. Should FO and MB choose loyalty over winning?
The Bengals have been burnt in both directions. They showed loyalty to an older Willie Anderson (letting Steinbach leave IIRC) and it soon became pretty clear he was done. They let an older Whitworth walk and have struggled at the position since while he's continued to play at a high level for LA.
