WHO-DEY!!!!!

That makes him the third highest defensive tackle in the NFL, being only 675,000 behind second and 1,575,000 behind first.............

I'm proud of our front office for taking care of our guys and taking care of business!

If that’s the deal that is a steal.

[jj22]

Shocked they got them both done. This may be a new day afterall.

[Joelist]

Both Geno and Dunlap extended!

I am liking this new approach we are seeing of trying to address things sooner rather than later.

Add this to axing Piano Man, bringing in an actual Offensive Line guru, the aggressive trading to turn our first round pick into BOTH a blue chip Center AND an upper tier Left Tackle, signing a MIKE who is in his prime, actually going for a center fielder safety early, cutting Iloka and LaFell - the list just goes on.

This whole offseason has felt really "un Bengal".

He deserves it. Personally believe he is the best 3-tech DT in the NFL and might be the best ever.

Need to get him and AJ a ring or three so they can be shoe in first ballot HOF'ers.

Geno Atkins: 4-year extension for $65.3M, $25.5M in first year, per source. More than 50% contract($37.5M) paid in first 2 years. $16.3M yearly average is highest yearly average signed by a 30+ year old non-QB in NFL history.

One of the most disruptive Ends in the game, he deserves this just like Geno.

Great day to be a Bengals fan!!!

That's another reason that makes me mad that Hill gave away our first playoff win in two and a half decades............  just that win would have boosted Atkins' case, imco.

In training camp, I told him he's the best 3-tech dt in the league, so hopefully he's inspired to have his best year yet!  (0.000001% chance that he even thought twice about it, but some people do get inspired just from seeing the way I am, so MAYBE!!!)

No doubt Joelist, things have changed for the better around here.

It's less than that annually cuz they will raise his salary this season to spread it out. Same with Dunlap.

I think Geno is going to have more chances, like this year. Lets go get it.

You are right, he is the best. No one does what he does, no one. Great to have him here for four more years.

Hopefully it is four Lombardis in that span.

He looks better than ever and with Billings next to him both these guys should have their best years along with the
rest of the D-line. Stop the run and get after the passer and feast.
