We made an offer. The Lions saw them. And the man himself said this time was less severe. We are 4 months out.
Is there a risk? Sure. But $5.8 is chump change. We could have opened up over $4 mil by doing a simple restructure on Brown. Making the 2024 risk on Reader a paltry $1.6 mil. Crap we could net that by cutting Carman. Not to mention, we are sitting on $20 mil in space as it is.
The combination of NOT doing both things is borderline incompetent.
The Reader risk for $5.8 is an easy call. For under $2 mil? Absurdly easy.
This is why the Chiefs win and we don't.
Chiefs win because Mahomes stays healthy, and they had a great draft after trading Hill to the Dolphins.
Can they win it all without Mahomes? I say no way. Just like we can't win it all without Burrow. Unfortunately, Joe has been hurt 2 seasons, so we know our outcome, I am just speculating on how chiefs do without best QB in football.

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.
