Why are we not extending our good players?

If the Bengals go defense 1-2 in the draft, I am breaking something, much like how Joe Burrow will break again in 2021. If they did get an extra 2nd rounder and they go defense 1-2-2 in the draft, I will literally not watch them again until Mike Brown dies.

The OL can't be fixed in FA alone. There's too many holes. The Bengals only have 2 OL right now that are at least mediocre starters, neither have 2 healthy legs right now, and 1 of the 2 has only played 10 games in 2 years.
