So far the Rats have lost 3 starting O linemen and on defense Stone, Queen and Clowney so far. Henry is the only add of note.
Stains added a head case in Jeudy and some smaller fish and that is pretty much it.
Steelers redid the QB room and added Queen. They lost Diontae Johnson too.
We lost Reader, Williams, Mixon, Boyd and Awuzie and added Stone, Moss, Rankins, Bell, Gesicki so far.
Everyone we added is an upgrade to their position group (3T, Safety, TE/Slot, RB) but we do have a pair of gaps at RT and NT.
So the whole division is experiencing turnover and wait till the draft, there will be more. So far I think we're doing pretty well - I'm not going to freak out because of a lack of immediate news.
Ravens also lost Edwards, Beckham and Dobbins is not signed. Neither of three in our division have a lot of cap space. Maybe the Ravens have guys they have developed to step in for Moses, Simpson and Zeitler, but if they do, what is their depth like right now?
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.
