PEN TO PAPER! ? We've signed seven draft picks — Cam Sample, Tyler Shelvin, D’Ante Smith, Evan McPherson, Trey Hill, Chris Evans and Wyatt Hubert.

We've also signed veteran free agent WR Trent Taylor.

It's a good sign that 7 of the 10 are signed so fast.  Mike Brown use to never have 7 signed this fast.  They just about always sign the last picks first, working up the pay scale ladder. I'm not worried about these other signings.  However if Mike Brown does one of those not having players signed for July and August Training Camp, then I'll worry. That is over 60 days away and Bengals show they are trying to get draft picks signed this year. 

There was no regular training camp or preseason in 2020, and I still feel the new coach was short changed on that. A coach as new as Taylor needs training camp to put across his playbook and coach new players up. You can't have New Dey or New Day without Training Camps. So it's good Bengals are getting players signed and ready to be in Coach Taylors second Training Camp and Preseason, only his second. You can not expect a new coach to turn a team around without Training Camps or Preseason. Bengals need to put everything into this Training Camp and Preseason, Coach players UP, see who earns spots on this team. To those who think spots on this team are already set, that is a NO on a last place team. The people who Block and Tackle in July and August are the people who will earn jobs on this team.
