Bottom line, he is a hell of a lot better than anything else we have, and very similar to Reiff.
If the Bengals offered him $15 million, they could save at least $3 million cutting XSF and then having Reiff at LG.
I would really like the line of: Williams-Reiff-Hopkins/Price-Carman-Moses, and it would have the flexibility to move Reiff back outside should one of the other OTs get injured. Right now, I don't like the idea of Fred Johnson as our backup tackle and really, after him, do you want them to force Carman outside? They need another OT.
I am assuming you meant 5 mil which they could probably get him for --maybe a bit more but your point is bang on -- add Moses and cut XSF -- 3 mill cap hit tops and the line is much better
Sheldon Richardson just signed for 3.6 mil -- the salaries are dropping fast for the guys not signed as there is not a lot of money out there
If Bengals are waiting for someone to get cut --that is fine but they absolutely need at least one more NFL calibre, experience player. They are not going to get a star or maybe even an above average starter but a solid vet would be an upgrade over the entire second string and likely even top five on the team
