A rookie is not proven. If we didn't bring back Ossai we would HAVE to Draft an End early or we would be incredibly thin even with Trey back.
Lol I suppose that's one way to look at it. I guess one could argue the Bengals should sign Julius Peppers out of retirement, since he's a proven pass rusher in your definition.
From my view point, it simply looks like the Bengals are trying to run-it-back with a 9-8 team that had glaring holes all over their roster (pass rush included) meanwhile giving their star players a cold shoulder when it comes to contract negotiations. This offseason has Cockburn written all over it and I just pray this isn't the norm going forward with those two at the helm.
