It’s a depth signing and they are not pretending otherwise.

Exactly, but the negativity train has left the station and is rolling.

And Sled has followed me in yet another thread to provide nothing once again. Desperate for my attention.

Depth signing and likely just a camp body. Here's some stats if anyone is interested:

Better just keep Burrow on the sidelines during the preseason while they figure out who the starters are.
It's almost like we've lived this before......

I do think the new line should get some good work together during the preseason. We tend to be able to tell right away if they are going to struggle.
Staying healthy and not rotating players too much will be key.
I'm actually against a position battle. Pick the starters and keep them together. No rotating new Guards in and out.

Dude, you're overly self important. Just because we both read through the new threads and comment doesn't mean anyone is following you around. Get over yourself.

How dare a fan of a franchise that has not won a playoff game in 30 years, has an owner who hates free agency, has an owner who doesn't care about the fans, has an owner than overwhelmingly only hires family and friends, has an owner that pays himself as the GM, and has had a track record under said owner/GM of being a loser more often than not not always be sunshine, rainbows, and positivity.
In 30 years, the owner/GM has pieced together 7 winning seasons. That's less than 1 every 4 seasons. How can you not be overly optimistic and realize that every decision is the right one and setting this team up for success?
We didn't sign the C right? The one that we had in for a visit that was better than every C on the roster, but hey, we got a camp body/depth guy that hopefully doesn't have to see the field. Small victories folks, small victories.

I couldn’t agree more.By preseason at the latest,you know who your starters are.Let these starters get some chemistry together.

Well, you have no idea why that didn't happen. Did he want more than he was worth? Is he suffering from an injury? Did his workout suck, or did he just say I'll go home and ponder it and let you work out the details with my agent.....

His knee isn't alright yet; his agent came out with that, from what I've seen on Twitter.
Don't be a smartass about it.

Okay. So I can't say anything because I don't know the exact details or because it's not overly optimistic and support everything the Brown family does?

If I'm overly self important (whatever that means) it's people like you who boost my ego with the constant shots (lame) attempted under everything I post.

Johnny S tromboli is the next acquisition the Bengals hope to get on OL, he is one spicy meatball and will bring the Bengals to their first Super Bowl.

It's my thread and people can post whatever their opinion is. Those who don't like it don't have to read or comment. It's past time for them to realize their freedom to scroll past.
I'll wait for an infamous (inside joke) thumbs down for daring to allow for others opinion. I'm sure it is coming....
