This is GREAT news for the Bengals.  Although I can't see Brady going to Tampa, he could very well end up a Charger.  If that happens, the job at Tampa, NE, Indy, and possibly Chicago are all in play.  I honestly can't imagine any of the other FA QBs being better fits at NE or Indy.  I think Arians wants a cannon-armed guy, but not sure if there is one available.  

It would seem that Mariotta and Winston would not be the best fit in NE or Indy for that matter...And I just don't know what I think about Bridgewater.  Great guy, and solid QB, but is he your franchise QB?  If the Bengals somehow wrestle a 2nd or even 3rd round pick for Dalton, I would be ecstatic.  And I wouldn't have to trade back at #33 for the additional pick (although I still would consider it as there is so much talent around picks 70-80).
