Willing to spend, and spend INTELLIGENTLY is the key.
$14m/yr for a mediocre starting CB? That's willing to spend, but not intelligently. The Bengals could have gone after one of the best Cs in the game for $1.5m/yr less. Instead they roll with the 6th highest cap hit in 2021 for the Bengals being Trey Hopkins (who PFF currently has rated 33rd among Cs).
