I mean, I like Michael Thomas & everything, but if Byard is within our budget, you gotta call him, right? 

I do not think signing Scott alters that. 

We have around $20 mil in space atm. Which baloons to $32 if Jonah goes. Mixon and Collins are candidates to create more. 

Assuming 2 QB, 4 RB, 6 WR, 3 TE, 4 OT, 4 OG, 2 C, 5 DE, 5 DT/NT, 5 LB, 6 CB, 4 S. We have the following open spots: 

1. QB2 (Allen?) 
2. RB2  
3. TE1  
4. TE2 
5. OG3 
6. OG4 
7. CB4 (Apple, Flowers)
 

We are over on some spots (5 safeties, 7 OTs). Some depth guys may get upgraded. And there are some ex-Bengal FAs out there who may come home (Allen, Apple, Flowers, D. Sample, Wilcox, Carter,  etc.). We also have 7 draft picks. 

There is poster on CincyJungle who claims to have sources in the building who says we are having ongoing discussions with: 

1. 2 TE (Carrer & Moreau?) 
2. 2 CBs (one is Apple, Flowers?) 
3. 4 DL 
4. 2 OL (new since Jonah trade request) 

Rapp left without a contract.
