What top tier LB or DE that's a free agent will you sign?
Just like people always say to sign a top Tackle. Those guys are rarely free agents.
This is the part that many people don’t comprehend. Tee Higgins is almost universally thought of as the premier (#1 overall) FA this offseason.
The best DE is Khalil Mack. 33 years old, 6 sacks in 2024
Others, Hassan Reddick (30), Josh sweat…
DT Milton Williams is the best interior option.
There is opportunity with CB and OL, but it shouldn’t be at the expense of retaining your third or 4th best player when the replacement player isn’t likely to be of similar impact.
The chiefs made a choice to get rid of Hill because they legitimately had equally impactful guys at other positions (TE, DT). They have struggled mightily to replace him. I know.. they are still winning.
If/when the bengals have 4 hall of fame players on their team, it will be tough to figure out… but that isn’t the case right now.
