Nobody is trading a 1st (or a 2nd or even a 3rd at this point) round pick for 8-9 games (depending on that team's bye week) of a currently injured Tee. He's probably missing this week, which would put him at missing 4 of the 9 games this year and put him on a 644 yard pace this season after a 656 yard 2023. He'd still be owed almost $11m this year, too. Diontae Johnson was traded for a 5th, while having to give a 6th back. Amari Cooper was traded for a 3rd and 7th, but having to give a 6th back. Davante Adams was traded for a 3rd (with an extremely unlikely possibility of it becoming a 2nd) and isn't a rental. DeAndre Hopkins was traded for a 5th (that could be a 4th if KC makes the SB). At this point, largely because of the quad injury being his second and current injury of the year, he's likely going to be worth more as a future comp pick than the 5th round pick we'd get for him now. The time to trade him was during the offseason, preferably the 2022-2023 offseason when it was clear he was not going to be extended we could have gotten a 1st and 3rd, but the 2023-2024 offseason where we probably could have gotten a 2nd would have worked too.

When Cooper was Tee's age he was traded for a 1st. I could see a team scheduled to pick late in the draft giving up a second or third, at worst. IF we lose tomorrow I hope we find out for his sake and the Bengals. If we win, I hope we go shopping.

Mike Brown is a pathetic human being. I hope fans stop renewing season tickets. They don’t deserve us. Well one big difference between them and us is 7-0 6-2 5-3 vs 3-5, tell me what 3-5 teams are making moves, we probably should be sellers not buyers RE: Sitting on our hands as usual - J24 - 11-02-2024 (11-02-2024, 06:30 PM)Essex Johnson Wrote: Well one big difference between them and us is 7-0 6-2 5-3 vs 3-5, tell me what 3-5 teams are making moves, we probably should be sellers not buyers How many 3-5 teams have an MVP level QB?

Oddly enough, the Texans went 4-12 the last year Watson was a top tier QB. At least Burrow don't go scotched earth like him.

They're currently 1 to 1 1/2 games out of #7. If Indy and LAC lose, they're a 1/2 game behind the Chargers.

We would have to win out. 1 guy is not going to fix the problem. However, I do understand the disappointment in doing nothing. This organization boils me sometimes. I wish the Brown family would just sell this team to someone who would keep it here. Someone who wants to win. Paul Brown would be sick knowing this franchise is not going ALL-IN to win every year. you really should calm down..they have been to a Superbowl and 2 AFC conference championship games recently..who knows what would have happened last year if burrow was not hurt..and this year..we have had a rash of injuries..calling people trash is way too harsh RE: Sitting on our hands as usual - ERIC1 - 11-02-2024 this team has some good players..whether it be a rash of injuries or something else..or a combination of the aforementioned. something is amiss thisyear yet .anyone thinking that picking up a player is going to make a difference at this point in time..either way..is going to be disappointed RE: Sitting on our hands as usual - pally - 11-02-2024 she just posted this, it is not a copy of her earlier tweet

Mike Brown is a pathetic human being. I hope fans stop renewing season tickets. They don’t deserve us. Chiefs, Bills, and Ravens all have 5+ wins. They are clearly in contention for a division win and (deep) playoff run. Their trades are to better their chances to get to the Super Bowl. Bengals are 3-5 and no one can say with confidence they would even make the playoffs by adding a player. I get wanting to make a trade to have a better chance, but Mike Brown and co. are definitely looking at it from a cost standpoint - If the team still doesn't make the playoffs or gets eliminated in the 1st round of the playoffs, is it worth losing draft pick(s) and the extra cost for the new player's salary? The Bengals will wait to see how the Raiders game goes before deciding to be buyers, sellers, or more than likely just staying put like most years. The last time they did a midseason trade was 2020 when Dunlap threw his tantrum about how he was used.

Rams Cowboys Jets Browns All have 3 wins or fewer, and have QBs who have won or finished high in the MVP voting. RE: Sitting on our hands as usual - Au165 - 11-02-2024 Feels like Chase Young and or Marshon Lattimore makes sense I wonder if they could secure both in a single deal for a 3rd and 6th RE: Sitting on our hands as usual - Bengalbug - 11-03-2024 I would imagine that whoever the bengals bring in would likely not only be to help this year, but to also be part of the plan looking ahead into the future. The roster is pretty bleak, through 8 games. I still think they have potential to turn it around, and getting some new energy in the bullding might just be what turns the ship around. I would point to bears last year (before and after Montez sweat, and the ravens 2022, before and after R smith.)

See how they treated Whit. Newbie fans that think that 2 years of lightning in a bottle make up for over 30 years of horrendous front office work are truly comical.

RE: Sitting on our hands as usual - TecmoBengals - 11-03-2024 I'm okay with trades even with this team having a losing record since the draft isn't a full proof when Duke picks a player. His guys don't always immediately contribute to winning ball.

The offered him a one-year deal, which at Whit's age was the smart play. LA offered three, and Whit beat Father time more than others tend to do. He was an outlier. It was still the smart offer.

Maybe... but these guys are safe until they aren't. We can point to terrible drafting that has led to many bad years since 2015 and the only 2 good season during that period is because the team was stocked with outside Free Agents. |
