Offseason transactions:
Cut: Waynes, Hopkins
Trade: Tyler Boyd to Miami for 2nd Round Pick
Resign: Bates (14.5), (Hill, 7.8), Flowers (2.6), Morgan (965k), Harris (1.1)
Acquire: Rasul Douglas, CB (7), Trent Brown, RT (10), Austin Corbett, OG (9M), Ryan Jensen, C (12M)
Draft:
1st Wyatt, DT, UGA
2nd Trey McBride, TE, CSU (from Miami)
2nd Wan’dale Robinson, Slot, UK
3rd Kellen Diesch, OT, ASU
4th Cole Strange, OG, UCT
5th Cordale Flott, CB, LSU
6th ZaQuandre White, RB USC
7th Matt Araiza, P, SDSU (may not be available in the 7th, but was in the simulators)
7th Jack Coan, QB, ND
DT is solid with Hill and Wyatt
TE: McBride > CJ
Slot: Boyd > Robinson today, but Wan’Dale is explosive and $9M cheaper per year.
Oline is solid with starters: Williams, Carmen/Strange, Jensen, Corbett, Brown
Diesch, Smith, Prince, Adeniji as backups
CB is secure with Douglas (5 INTS for GB), Awuzie, Flott, Flowers, Hilton.
RB2 - White is very underrated and replaces Perine.
QB2 - Coan battle for spot
P - not sure Araiza is available at 7 despite simulators but if so he is has a cannon for a leg.
Tyler Boyd is easily one of Mike Brown’s favorite players. He’s also the vet of the receivers. Not happening IMHO. The chemistry with Burrow and the receiving group is excellent but is going to reach epic proportions even more next year. They aren’t messing with that. They will definitely work something out with Uzomah. The Bengals won’t mess with this roster much. They won’t mess with the chemistry. They will bring in a top center and decent guard but they will draft a tackle at #31 and a corner #63
