You and others can say the Bengals are bad at contract negotiations, I will not. If that puts me in the minority so be it.

We're currently a great team in a fine place cap-wise. Sure we were terrible years ago. 

I was very clear that things have gotten better with Katie having more control, but we still lack the 2nd year guarantee that most teams do nowadays.  

Burrow has also covered a lot for this team.  I would say that we have good talent, but we do not have multiple blue chippers, especially on defense.  We couldnt keep Bates or Reader, Trey is our only "guy".  Other AFCN teams have more than one on defense.  When we have multiple stars they are all on their rookie deals except maybe one veteran.

Most of our fans wouldnt know how to act if we had Howie Roseman and an owner with a willingness to spend just a little more.
