Seems like the asking price for nose tackles has massively escalated with the new salary cap. That combined with Reader's age and injury will probably make both sides decline.
More's the pity. He's a really good one. And I understand he's had injury issues and he's long in the tooth. But he plays lights out when he's healthy. He's a stud.
I hope they can do an incentive laden contract that will pay him his worth if he's healthy. Because he's a necessary force in the middle, and must be combined with other players.
Do what it takes Bengals. Figure it out. Don't do another Whitworth. Not now.
He's 29. Hardly long in the tooth.
Rankins is 29.
