False. It's a 3WR base offense.
Except that didn't happen with 33/34 WRs drafted last year.
That's not the offense Zac Taylor runs.
False. The Bengals have Bell and two other safeties currently under contract which provides at least the bare minimum in depth.
Bates was brought in to start as a rookie without anyone a FS and the sky didn't fall. He can be replaced with a cheap vet and a high draft pick (Hall, Cine, Brisker, maybe even Pitre). Or sign someone like Q. Diggs for less.
You gotta play solid during the regular season to even reach the playoffs or the Super Bowl. Boyd has been consistent. Bates has not.
Top 5 WRs contracts start at an average of $20M/yr. Top 5 S contracts start at an average of $14.6M. Or 27% less. WRs get paid more than S because of the nature of the position. And a WR3 in a 3 WR based offense that is targeted more than any other WR3 in the league and 3rd most on the team is not, and I repeat, not a 4th or 5th non-priority option despite how many times you want to repeat that false claim.
False. Mike Hilton is an excellent NCB. Which means the Bengals have a minimum of two really good CBs.
It's really easy to just make shit up.
I dont know why I even entertain your stupidity.
Chase, Higgins and Mixon are our top 3 priorities on offense. Doesnt matter that we run a 3WR base, we also run a 2TE, and other formations. Priorities dont change.
WR3 is the easiest position to replace in football, RB could be close or easier.
We cant run the offense Zac wants to run due to a terrible line, 4 of which have combined salaries less than our WR3.
Who are the 2 other Safeties other than Bell and Bates?
Bates play vs Boyds in he regular season has zero bearing on this debate but you are simply too dumb to understand this...
Mike Hilton is a nickel, not CB1 or CB2 there is a difference.
Again this isnt happening why keep the argument going and looking foolish? But do tell me who we signed at safety?
