Lattimore to Wash.

Preston Smith from GB to the Steelers. Some teams just have more interest in winning now!

If we can really get Ojulari for a 5 I probably do it then extend him. It takes an offseason need off the board cheaply.

Bengals trying to improve their interior pass rush.

The Cincinnati Bengals are searching specifically for a DT.

There’s a group of teams also hunting for the same position.

The best thing that they could do to bolster the pass rush is get better at stuffing the run. If they really want a big man to command a double team for a half a year rental, go get Calais Campbell. At age 38 he's playing well.

The Ravens just got CB Tre’Davious White from the Rams. Deal includes a 2027 7th round. Rams get a 2026 7th round

Well just over 30 min left.... Think the price is a little too steep to make another move.

And Preston Smith. 

Browns just released a DT they may have interest in.

We just found out how to trade for even less, Lol. When 2027 7th rounders start coming into play in 2024, just go ahead and send them a bunch of nice steaks or something instead.

And surprising all by not drafting a rb. 

7 minutes to find out if this front office thinks a backup running back is the answer to their needs.

Keeping their late round picks is more important to the FO so they can replenish the practice squad next year! Why should they try and win now.

How expensive could that be.   I guess Miami does not want to part with him... or the Bengals don't want to spend.   

He would help a lot in the middle while the youngsters grow.    He just keeps on playing well.   They just hate giving up draft capitol.  

No more trades possible. Time has expired.

In baseball sometimes they get done and are announced later

Rumor is the Dolphins wanted a fourth for Calais Campbell....that's nuts. Some of these teams had some crazy high valuations on guys who won't even be on their roster next year and they are out of it.

As usual Bengals FO show how serious they are about winning....

I mean I wanted improvements but I also have to question how NONE of the big name guys we had heard about around the league really got moved outside of Lattimore and Smith. A bunch of guys who were being shopped couldn't get moved and there were a ton of teams looking at pass rush help so it's interesting to me that the asking prices were so high.

Like I said above the ask for Campbell was a 4th apparently and dude is 37. Ask for Ojulari was a late 4th or early 5th and he is a FA in 8 games. Sometimes markets just don't come to fruition. The failure of this roster was back in March, not really today. I think expecting it to be saved today was a big ask.

One note though...there may be some help to be had! Jordan Phillips just got cut from Dallas and could provide some help on the interior. Additionally, Jefferson got cut in Cleveland. Both could be options to bolster DT depth.
