I try to look forward as no control with past moves. Bates got a huge contract and so did Bell. One of them got back for league minimum as Carolina pays him.
We lost Bell for. year, but are able now to get him back in a year hopefully Joey B. stays healthy. Stone may not be the best tackler, but neither was Bates. His value is getting defense set, interceptions (Bates was average at best in this area) and making sure we don't give up, 30, 40, 5o yard plays because guys are out of position.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.
