Room for 1 more? - kalibengal - 03-20-2024
After the T Brown signing, what cap room are we left with and will we attempt to bring in a vet CB?
RE: Room for 1 more? - Housh - 03-20-2024
Idk why more ppl aren’t on this train but i think we need a better guard too. Volson is a backup and i will stick to that story until he proves me wrong
Hope one with talent falls because im very certain the 1st three picks are tackle, defensive tackle and TE
Next 2 rounds could easily be corner and i feel like guard is the next need. I don’t just wanna have an average o line. I wanna have a top 5 line. Burrow passes so well if he had time i truly don’t see how we don’t win the Superbowl
RE: Room for 1 more? - ElkValleyBengal - 03-20-2024
Eli Apple is available.
RE: Room for 1 more? - ochocincos - 03-20-2024
Bengals had $29 mill before signing Brown.
I don't know what Brown has signed for, but I can't imagine it's even $15 mill, maybe not even $10 mill.
There should still be enough there to sign a mid-tier veteran or two while still leaving plenty for the draft and even putting some toward extensions.

I don't think anyone on this board would argue that Volson isn't a good starting option and could be upgraded.
I think anyone countering him getting replaced is just going to say he's been given the spot the past two years and Pollack seems to like him so the chances are slim to none.

Chido went to the Titans on a 3 year $36 million deal, so he should count as a net loss of Corner talent
so far in Free Agency.

I think they draft a bunch of OL guys.
RE: Room for 1 more? - IcoHolic - 03-20-2024
I do think they need a bit more athletacism on the interior

Tyron Smith's one year deal with the Jets was for only $6.5M. Using that deal as a barometer, I would think less than $10M but likely more than $5M.

Rock Ya Sin at Corner would be who I would add, he is 28 so not too old and he is good Corner.
Not against Eli Apple coming back either. Stephon Gilmore is old but he played pretty great last year, so he might be spendy.
Still would like a NT to help stop the run. Also would like to add a G/C I just don't know who is out there right now.

Still like Poona Ford who can play NT and help us stop the run. Also would like to add a G/C I just don't know who is out there right now.
Ford signed with the Chargers.

There are multiple serviceable CBs still available.
Stephon Gilmore is the oldest and had the best season last year.
Steven Nelson is 31 but also had another good year last season.
These guys are very average but can be CB4:
Rock Ya Sin (27)
Myles Bryant (26)
Akhello Witherspoon (28)
Tre Herndon (28) - had a good season last year, was very bad before then.
These are bad:
Adoree Jackson (28)
Kristian Fulton (25)
Apple had some good games last season but also 5 that were pathetically bad. I think we got the best of him.

I agree with your take on Volson but honestly the bangles don’t they like Volson I blame Pollick but obviously he is the weak link on the line now and it’s by far however Cincinnati is not going to address it in free agency I definitely see them bringing someone fifth sixth round to compete against Volson but they’re they won’t bring in a free agent to take his spot they need to go sign a high end or higher caliber if you will free agent vet corner give me Howard and let’s freaking go

Love rock ya too and leaning that way more n more cuz of overall value
RE: Room for 1 more? - dxdtdemon - 03-20-2024
Dalton Risner often goes where Rascati goes and can play guard and center pretty well. With Rascati on our coaching staff, I'm not sure why Risner isn't a Bengal yet.

Risner is a FA?
Would definitely like to add Risner.

Agree the Bengals probably did get Apple's best years even though he is just 28 and I would rather not bring him back. Yet will let Lou make that call
