La'El Collins opt out

As I understand it, the Bengals could opt out of the contract, would eat 2/3 of the $5M signing bonus, and the move would save just over $6m against the cap (there may be an injury settlement as well).  I was a big fan of the signing when it happened, but between the ACL/MCL, chronic back injuries, and being 30 next year, the upside is shrinking.  It would put us in a very needy RT position, but aren't we already there?


We are already in a very needy position because Collins wont be ready to start next year.  I am personally doubtfull he will be ready at all next year.  He is a big dude and the way he will need to move and twist in blocking with all his weight on that knee, I just dont see him being ready next year.  We will need to rely on someone else for some amount of time next year and that leaves us right now counting on Adeniji.   I cant imagine too many people think that's a good idea.  Although he played better at T than G, he was still pretty bad.  They need someone else.

A post June 1st Collins cut saves the Bengals 7.7 million in cap space.  If Collins is cut before June 1 it saves just 6 million

I think the Bengals have to sign a proven quality free agent for RT this offseason.  I dont think you want to draft an unproven rookie and cross your finger he does OK at RT while also hoping Volson somehow shows major improvment and hoping Jonah Williams doesnt give up the league leading number of sacks again.  That is just too many question marks for the Oline once again.  Do fans want a 3rd straight season of knowing the team could have won the Super Bowl if onlly they had better talent on the Oline?  As of right now the Bengals have exactly two quality starters on the Oline, Cappa and Karras and that is only because they picked them up in free agency last year.  I think management needs to go out and get another 2 quality free agents.
