Still much better than Dre = upgrade.

- Dre

- Waynes
- Webb
- Tony Brown (ST)
- Winston Rose (is that his first name?)
You need 6/7 CBs; we could very well be standing pat on the CB end at this point; even with the cap, I'd MUCH rather have Dre over Webb.
For the same amount Dre is getting paid now?

They already tried 3rd tier OL FA, that's how they overpaid Bobby Hart and John Miller. Both of which about as smart of decisions as when they lowballed Whitworth because they felt good about Cedric Ogbuehi at LT.
Every other team has the draft, too. It's not just some secret for the Bengals to use. That's not enough to turn a 2-14 team around to a winner.
Agree about the OL starting Lineup just think we improved today and we will improve with Burrow and the OL did improve from
complete shit to okay as the year went on once they change to a directional drive blocking scheme and we still have the Draft
ahead of us. Not complaining about adding a beast NT and getting better at Cornerback.

Side note: this and the other signing gives us more flexibility in the draft . All good
Dre tweeted a picture selling his Bengals gear already, he is out.
