I like your FA class. No way I pay a guy making 2.5 million (Gesicki) who while a good receiver, has some drops and average to poor in line blocker. I say 3 million max.
But Slayton is not a #2 or close to Tee. We need to figure out a way to sign him. Moss should be cut. Hubbard should be cut. These 2 additional cuts will be another 12 million or so. I would much rather keep Tee and use the cut money of the 2 I added, plus the 6 or 8 million from Slayton on Tee.
My question om Hill is due to no strong DT presence alongside him, was he getting more double teams so less production. I like the age of 25 of Brown over BJ 30ish. I think the Eagles sign hm though.
As for 1st pick safety is a good possibility, but if Tyler Warren is sitting there, I like the PS TE a lot. The question becomes if we draft him, will Zac design play packages to take advantage of both his in line blocking skills, FB skills and receiving skills. I am with Sunset, he could transform our offense lining up with Tee and Chase. When is the last time we had an inline TE who can block and dominate LB's and slot CB's. I could see him being JB's Dan Ross. If we do TE versus safety, we need to sign a vet safety and likely let Gesicki walk unless he signs again for 2.5 million again.

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.
