Yes, I am seeing that everywhere now. Miami signed a TE (Smith) for two years, after he was released by Atlanta. Patriots sign the OT Okorofor. Both might have fit Bengals needs. And it does mean that there are a number of free agents available to be signed right now that might fit the Bengals needs, such as the veteran safeties Simmons and Poyer, and centers Mitch Moore and Cody Whitehair. I imagine teams are already negotiating with them. I hope the Bengals are at least in the mix for Simmons.
