LOL there goes his career. I guess best of luck. I see what Cleveland is trying to do and that's smart, but they like the other poor teams try to win through free agency every year and end up either overpaying guys or overvaluing guys. We'll see what happens I guess in the upcoming season.

Hurts losing him to a division rival. The Browns are getting a lot better sans a QB.

Cleveland actually looks to be building in the right direction. They've got 2 first round picks this year, and Myles Garrett is about as sure a thing as you can get in the draft. They just need a QB.

Im glad he got paid and that's a good o-line to play on. Im interested to hear how much money he got, because last i heard saints were at 12 million a year so they must have come in with a higher offer.

We knew this was coming. Players are choosing teams like Browns/Rams over Bengals. Marvin returning sent wrong message. Where will Dre land is the next question? This 6 win team is now looking like a 3 win team.

Well on the bright side that is two extra 3rd round picks next year. One for Whit and one for Zeitler

These are bad organizations but are willing to spend money.
It basically says...in the NFL...money talks. Loyalty is overrated or non-existent.
Risking my life for a paycheck? I can't blame them.

Are we sure we didn't just go back 10 years in time and misspell "Eric Steinbach"?
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

Wow thats a great contract for him. Browns have so many picks this year and are scooping up so much FA talent. If they can't turn it around now they need to shutter the doors.

I'm guessing Saints balked in the end..

I hate to read the free agency winners and losers. So far Bengals are being mocked on Twitter by all the big time talking heads for a disastrous day. I guess I won't be watching Total Access tonight.

It is a business. I can't blame them for taking the money.
These stories will have sad endings like TJ Houshmanzedah. Grass isn't always greener.

Hue Jackson must have wanted him. Last year was only Hue's first year there. I can see Hue turning the Browns around, I really can. People on here laughing at Rams and Browns, may I remind you it's the Bengals that have gone the longest without a play-off win.

I thought the same but was corrected in another post. We won't get more than a 5th for Whitworth due to his years of service.
We will get a 3rd for Zeitler hopefully.

Thing is..
We're about to be at the level of those teams if we don't get any replacements..
