I still think he’s better than drama k. Dennard will be missed.
RE: Dennard Wanted 10 million - TheLeonardLeap - 03-17-2019
That's what happens when you overpay a mediocre-to-poor CB like Kirkpatrick. Then other CBs look and say "I am better than him, I need at least that much money too."
RE: Dennard Wanted 10 million - GreenDragon - 03-17-2019
Former 1st round pick.
Starter.
Wait. Not a starter.
Sorry, Not $10 Mil.

I could see them taking Greedy Williams

I just think it’s gonna be tough to address all our needs through the draft were gonna have to kill the first 3 rounds. Assuming if White isn’t there at 11 maybe they’ll go Bush from Michigan which I’m fine with, he’s a three down backer who can cover. Then go CB in round 2? My problem Is I want a good rookie OT to compete with Hart not some stiff at the bottom of the draft who has no chance to win the job. Maybe we can find one in round 3 but it will be hard to do. Then we still have needs at TE, pass rusher and DT.

I think that you seem to be forgetting that the Bengals Management puts a premium on certain positions, like OT, CB, and WR, when it comes to draft priority. If I know the Bengals like I think I know the Bengals, they're drafting OT, CB, and maybe LB as an afterthought..
RE: Dennard Wanted 10 million - THE PISTONS - 03-17-2019
Honestly, if Dennard was a 5th Round pick...his production wouldn't warrant $8+ million a year.
People see he was a 1st Round pick and want to overpay on potential.

Kirkpatrick is tha 13th highest paid CB in the league. He is a good CB. He is not overpaid very much at all.

Agreed they love first round corners, Hall, Joseph, Kirkpatrick, Jackson III, and Dennard are Proof. OT and WR too. Just think it will be hard for them to neglect LB again after last season and with them never being able to draft a decent LB. They didnt use free agency to address linebacker and if there relying on Burfict there crazy.

When healthy, Brown is a far better player than Dennard. The latter has been a total bust.

Bring back Leon Hall.
RE: Dennard Wanted 10 million - Okeana - 03-17-2019
I hear a lot of people saying cut Dre and sign Dennard. You don't get better by cutting a bad CB and replacing him with another bad CB that specializing in the slot.
RE: Dennard Wanted 10 million - bfine32 - 03-17-2019
The #1 CB in DD's draft class is available.

There are guys getting paid huge contracts all over the league due to rise in the cap and massive money available for every team.
Fair point. I've been aware of the cap going up, but it's still hard to wrap your head around $10 million for Dennard.
Even if you adjust and say it's the equivalent of a $7 million a year deal a few years ago, that still seems high for a very average-at-best performer.
That might explain why $7 million for Hart sounds so bad though. Maybe that would've been a $3-4 million deal a few years ago.

Not to mention we'd be exchanging one mediocre $10 million CB for another mediocre $10 million CB while adding dead money.

This is not the year to go corner in round 1, particularly with the 11th pick. It's one of the first years in a long time where there's no lock for a top 10 pick at the position, which is fairly unheard of. I think taking Baker or Williams before the mid 20's is flat-out stupid and a reach. Second round? I could get on board with that. There are a few players there that warrant attention. I could also see trading back if somebody wanted the 11th if you could get something good out of it.
This team is in a shitty position personnel-wise because they've blown so many first round picks in the last 5 years. The only one showing real value since 2014 is Jackson. Price gets a Mulligan for injuries and being a rookie, but they've sucked ass at getting value out of the first round for a while now. They need a home run this time. They can't screw around reaching for a lesser player if a guy like Hockenson or White is sitting there.They don't do enough in outside free agency to recover from being awful at picking in the first for 5 out of 6 drafts.

Yeah, I'm not too worried about losing Dennard. Dre gets a lot of flack, and Dennard is more of an unknown (sort of), so people want to replace Dre with DD. I'm good with not doing that. There's nothing DD has done since he got here that warrants a starting job or a huge contract. Save that money for WJ3 down the line.

Garbage. He’s good at dropping interceptions n being on Le’Veon Beljs highlight reel and missing tackles that’s about all. Oh yeah and celebrating when the ball os overthrown like he mAde a great play.

For all the flack Dre gets, he's probably better than Dennard.
Btw, I also like bfine's idea of bringing back Leon. Bring him back for depth/leadership on a 1 year deal.
I was surprised to see that he actually started some games in Oakland last year.
