After reading 7+ pages on this thread and looking around online, I don't have an issue with this. Would have been to see someone come in that's a sure star at the position, but a) I don't think that's necessary given how the Bengals' offense utilizes the role, b) who's to say Hurst won't increase his production in a system QB'd by Burrow.
Up until a couple of days ago most were fine keeping CJ on the roster and noted his production and skills were enough. If Hurst ends up being a roughly 1:1 equivalent and at less money (and potentially opening some options in the draft for next year's roster), I don't see how this move should be a major concern by anyone.
It's not flashy, but not every FA move has to be.
