Great point. Let's hope others step up and earn a big contract in coming years

I know that myself, along with many others, have really been down on John Ross. Let's not forget that he still has 3 years with which to prove himself worthy of a big deal. Prior to that, we'll have WJ III, Billings, Hubbard, Lawson, and Vigil all with rookie deals expiring.

Holy crap we retained our 2nd receiver. Has to be the first time since Housh.
RE: Bengals Re-sign Boyd - Shake n Blake - 07-23-2019
We're about to have a lot of money tied up at WR, but I'm definitely glad to have Boyd locked up. He certainly earned it.

Not only will they pay you, they will generally honor the contract. I remember people on here screaming that Leon Hall should take a pay cut toward the end.

Take that Browns fans

Boyd picked higher than Landry as better slot receiver
If AJ is equal to Beckham (I think he is), then Browns skill guys have nothing on Bengals heading into 2019

Would rather wait and see how his toe injury has healed. Forty million + for a injured player would be disaster. Even if it is the Bengal's premier player of the last decade

Dude, I've never known you to be a quitter. The day you quit beer, you might as well quit the Bengals, quit loving your wife, heck might as well just quit livin'...

Just watched the Boyd presser and he was asked about AJ and he stated that AJ was happy for him and that AJ was keeping tabs with him because as Boyd said "he (AJ) was getting his contract fixed up as well"...sounds like AJ contract in the next couple days

If Ross doesn't do much again this year I don't see the team exercising its 5th year option and we'll be looking for someone else for that role in the next draft, if one of the other young guys doesn't step up. I also don't see the team cutting him if he pays poorly either. They'll put him on the pine like they did Ogbuehi.
WJ III will command top dollar. Billings could be an economical re-sign, IMO.
Is Vigil worth keeping at a higher salary or are we better off drafting more LBers? I vote to draft young faster LBers.

You can rebuild on the fly, which is more accurately retooling. You don't tear it down if you're only a few players away.
RE: Bengals Re-sign Boyd - Circleville Guy - 07-23-2019
It would be hard to find a downside to this deal. Things do go right for the Bengals on occasion! A short extension fo AJ is probably next with fingers crossed that he won’t become a football Joey Votto.

Just add to what you already have.
This year you see what you have and, consequently, what you need, adopt a new way of doing things.
This season could start out rough and if it does, a lot of people will get pissed and write Zac Taylor off. But even if it starts out shaky, it will end well and by next year, we will be formidable. Could even happen by the end of this year.
That can't happen if you go for an unnecessary rebuild.

Some fans forget that the Bengals were the youngest roster in the NFL going into 2018...when they say rebuild they only think of the QB.

Glad to hear it! Now get AJ signed. If they dick around like they did with Whit, I'm going to be pissed.
