Just confused as to the mention?

I have no idea how we would get him until you call the Vikings.  They would want trade capital to get out of his contract.  I would at least see what they want for him.

The contract fits the Bengals perfectly as they have cash to spend this year, but don't want to occupy future cap space.

He's a good player, I just dont see the reasoning?

As far as the money goes, he would be a big hit this year (Bengals have LOTS of cash left this year, but not as much cap space) but it basically averages less than $15 million per year and that is way less than top tier DEs are getting.  I still see him as a top tier DE and he would be basically a two year rental and then a compensatory pick when he leaves.  

I am not ready to just rely on Ossai coming back healthy.  They need more pass rush.  Maybe the draft will supply help there, but I liked the idea.
