Some think Allen is a product of the quick pass offense the 22-Film stuff I have seen he is not close to the upper tier guys we are looking at, several guys that do these tape sessions seem to have a consensus on the guy that isnt overwhelmingly positive.
I don't know what to tell you, but Bengals aren't getting a ton of high-priced players in FA.
They simply don't have enough cap to do it.
You're going to have to settle for players in the $5-10 mill range.
They actually have the cash on hand to make it work for a couple of solid oline guys and one DT. It's not just cap, as you are well aware.
However you are most likely correct, regardless of cap or cash we wont see what we would really hope for...
We could get one of these centers and the average of each position group for under 35M cap hit, depending on signing bonuses, IMO.
C: Jensen or Bozeman. 11-13M
T: T Brown (hi)/ Moses (med)/ Ifedi (lo). 7-11M
G: Tomlinson or Corbett (hi)/ Cappa or Karras or Norwell (med)/ Willliams (lo). 6-10M
DT: Hill or Ogunjobi (and a low cost vet) 7-9M
CB: D Jackson or D Williams (hi)/ R Douglas (med)/ Witherspoon or S Jones (lo) 4-10M
I found this interesting on Prisco analysis on OL. Some are just average pass blockers and I don't want average pass protectors in front of Burrow.
Allen for example not rated high in pass blocking.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
