Maybe we luck out and nobody in the league is willing to go that high. Maybe the Bengals end up being the team to offer the most and he ends up with us. We shall see.
Yes, the longer he is out there the more likely we land him. There is a reason the Scott deal hasn't went through yet.

They of course want guaranteed money, but if the gap is that big and nobody is paying him it could be a win/win. Cincy has a lot going for itself and they played the Brown Jr. Zsituarion perfectly, this could be the sequel.
And the Pratt deal was handled perfectly as well. If we can get CGJ in here, what a topper that would be.
