One S was expected to leave (hence the Dax pick), and the other was a bit of a surprise.
This signing should make any and all “sting” gone. FA could be closed now and the bengals are better.
That said, they will replace S, RB2 and TE before the draft and likely in the next week.

Great news. Now to draft an OL in the 1st or 2nd round then a vet TE and S.
To each his own... unless you belong to a political party...

So he was cheaper than the guy the chiefs signed who isn’t as good? How’d that work out?

They brought the cash everyone thought they didn’t have and told the league to F’ off by giving him the largest signing bonus at o-linemen has ever had

It's like a taste of watching other brothers and sisters wake up for Christmas morning and seeing the tree.

We can now draft RB, TE, and S
You really that confident in Williams excelling in a new position? I’m not confident in him or Carman. I want a RT at pick 28

I can confidently say that with the Orlando Brown Jr signing the Bengals will not be going back to the wide zone offense for a 5th year in a row lol.

Well KC is moving Jewann Taylor from RT to LT. Right now I’d say it’s either a RT or TE and BPA
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.

This was basically the same deal that Bates signed...just more guaranteed.
So either Bates or Brown? You go Brown.

Ok, so this was completely unexpected.
However, this almost creates more questions than answers.
Is Brown playing LT or RT? (I thought he confirmed it will be LT)
Does Jonah move to RT?
Do they trade Jonah?
What about Collins when he's healthy?
WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?!
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

Yes!
We have quite the swing on these boards. For 2 days people are generally down. Then day 3+ is when we work.

Could Jonah be traded for picks or a player, and use Carman until LC is ready or draft someone? Carman had been working out at both tackle positions last season.
