J24: No, no holdouts. They knew what they were doing when they signed and the Bengals won't have an issue offering a second contract when tha time comes.
Shady: As for the draft, it's near impossible to tell before free agency. If M. Jones comes back, that change the 'need' for WR. If A.Jones/Nelson/Iloka come back ... same can be said for the secondary. By talking to the staff this week, they like how deep the draft is on the defensive side of the ball.
But, my gut feel says M.Jones/G.Iloka get offers that the Bengals may not be willing to match/exceed with so many teams with so much cap room available.
I thought I read the Bengals have the 6th most cap room going into free agency. Not sure if I remember correctly and with some players getting cut recently the ranking may have changed. Where do the Bengals stand with cap space compared to other teams?
Nevermind, I should have read your article first. Thanks for your report.
