I also wish that he would have remained with the Bengals, especially after seeing how things have turned out for him in Denver thus far.

He also said he wanted to be closer to his family in Colorado so there was not much the Bengals could have done to keep him other than overpaying for him. Still, that doesn't excuse them from not doing more to upgrade the RB2 position in the offseason.
