That is the point.  Maybe those good players don't want to be in Cinci.  Maybe they would rather be on teams that have a better reputation of winning even if it means not taking top dollar.  At some point when someone makes enough to support themselves for life, and their kids, an their grandchildren and they have spent the majority of their life training to get where they are top dollar does not always matter.  Some players at that point want to be on teams with a likelihood of more success.

I'm kind of repeating this but the Bengals are probably not on the top of the list for free agents.  This team has been bad and currently has a head coach that a lot think is over his head.  The Bengals are just not a destination team.  It sucks as a fan to think no top player really wants to play for the Bengals unless they get over paid.  But I guess that is what it is.
