He ranks Awuzie as the 30th best free agent out there, we got him for 7 million per year, and this guy grades it as a C and calls him a "cheap replacement" for WJ3, who they rank as their 31st best free agent. He says "in typical Bengals style" as a way of saying we cheaped out.
That's actually even more funny than I thought. I didn't realize they literally ranked Awuzie better than WJIII when I saw his grade.
And then, for Trey Hendrickson, this guy says "this is a very Bengals deal" and basically downplays the signing when they had him as the 7th ranked free agent whereas Lawson is ranked as 37th.
You can't make this shit up dude. It's pathetic how biased they are. They can't even realize their discrepancies even when they post links to their free agent rankings in the very free agent grading article in which they're contradicting their top 100 ranking list. It's top notch comedy.
I mean, the last paragraph about Hendrickson ^ 2nd to last about Awuzi aren't too hateful. I think the assessment is fair, to a degree. I like the signings a lot and am thrilled at how the contracts are steuctured.
