Will we regret Trae Waynes?

[Bengal Dude]

We had plenty of cap room and we didn't have a lot of internal FAs that were crucial to bring back. With a rookie QB deal coming into fold, it allows the team to hand out deals like this. Did we overpay Waynes? Probably. He's a lot like Dre K when it comes to ball skills. He's not going to generate turnovers. However, where Waynes and Dre differ is that Waynes will actually tackle and try to defend the run. That was the theme of our FAs. Bell, Reader, Bynes, and Waynes have better run defense grades than the guys they're replacing.
