I Would Not Look for Big Money LONG Term Deals in FA

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

If you don't offer long contracts, you don't get top tier FA.
If you don't get top tier FA, you're not protecting Burrow.
If you're not protecting Burrow, what's the point in planning on his future extension?

Worrying about 2023 and 2024 cap space when you're in the 2020-2021 offseason is how you turn into a loser.

Here's a list of all the players the Bengals have under contract in 2024:
Joe Mixon (who will probably cut to save $12.3m)
Joe Burrow (only if they pick up his 5th year option)

That's it. List over.

.....Refusing to sign premier guys for the 2021 season because of worries about cap space in 2024... goddamn have we Bengals fans been subjected to Mike Brown for too long, or what?
