Tunsil 18M cap hit for 2 years
Requires 10M in guaranteed money out of our stash we want to use to sign pay free agents.
Requires Jonah to move to RT, a spot he hasnt played since early in college which will require getting used to...
Collins 10M cap hit for 3 years (16M savings over Tunsil in yrs 1 & 2)
Requires zero guaranteed money that can be used to bolster FA deals. (10M in savings)
Jonah stays in his spot and Collins stays in his maintaining familiarity.
Collins brings baggage.Don’t like his attitude.There are other options available.If you’re going to rebuild your OL through FA,this is the year,as there are plenty of quality free agents available.Of course unfortunately at a price.But,if the Bengals are all in on the OL,as they appear to be(we’ll see),then they can make it happen.Starting with Tunsil at LT,and moving Jonah Williams to RT.It’s going to be expensive,as the Bengals should already expect that.
Trae Waynes is good as gone,so there,you have that.Hopkins,gone.And most likely Ogunjobi.Now you go after Jensen.The best center in the NFL.
Hopefully,they can even upgrade to an above average RG.There are affordable options available at this position as well.Problem solved.Not sure how many draft picks we give up in the process.
Just hoping the Bengals are as aggressive as they were with the rebuild of the defense in free agency.I know it’s asking alot,but with the cap space they have,I think they could make it happen,with minimal casualties to our own task of signing our free agents.
