1 player? We missed out on all the upgrades on Oline and LB. Our two main problem areas.

I agree the meltdown is a bit much, but what progress are we making?

They’ve missed out on every player available that could’ve helped us..

In light of 2-14 and a half empty stadium and maybe trying to give your next QB even the slight impression that you're working hard and , God forbid, giving your second year coach some tools in the toolbox, it doesn't take a genius to know that aggression might be the way to go.  Perception matters.

I can't get mad at the meltdown. So far this FA period looks way too familiar. Maybe if Mikey B. had not spent the last 30 years earning the reputation that he has it might be a little easier to get quality FA in the building now.

Burrow said he'd play here, so he's stuck now. MWA HA HA!!!

I am usually not pessimistic but to not get a decent Guard nor a decent LB in FA is pathetic after last season and us having the 
#1 overall pick and not trying to assure said pick we are trying. This could really backfire on the entire Franchise more than the 
typical lack of FA we have seen over the years. Hope we get somebody decent but the best guys are already gone.

This signing changed my mind, I am good now, get a decent LB and draft Burrow and improve the OL and we are heading in 
the right direction on both Offense and Defense. We haven't had a signing like this in forever, guess I wasn't an idiot after all 
thinking this would be a different FA for us this year.

Reader is a good step in the right direction. Game is won in the trenches.

Crow for everyone! Carryout only, no eat-in dining for at least a couple of weeks. Looks like they may have put some planning into free-agency after all.

We should all flood his page with tweets warning him of this entire franchise. Poor kid has no chance here , They should trade the pick to Miami/Carolina or just take Young
Does Burrow have something against Reader and Trae Wayne? Why would we warn him? Or is this an overreaction after a day and a half of free agency?

Maybe we brought Reader in as a backup i guess.

Palmer said that the Bengals aren't committed to winning weeks ago trying to get Burrow to pull an Eli evidently.

Burrow has said nothing to even hint at pulling an Eli and with us today getting DJ Reader and Trae Waynes would make this 
even more the case. Great signings, especially Reader who is a beast. Will miss Billings though, thought he could grow into a 
DJ Reader.
