Trent Brown signs 1 year deal with the Bengals

[The D.O.Z.]

The Rams paid a premium for Whit because they needed a veteran leader at a high-leverage position on their offensive line. They were piecing together their SB run. We had OogieBoogie "expected" to take over. Had the Bengals needed to draft a LT THAT draft, I would expect they would have tried much harder to retain him. Hindsight, yeah it sucks they let him get away but you can't fault them for moving on because they felt it was time. I think it hurts Bengals fans more because Cedric sucked so bad. Had he been a worthy 1RP, and played up to his draft position, we probably wouldn't still be talking about this.
