They’d better hope Fairchild and Rivers work out. Would have liked more picks. I love Trey but it’s evident he loves playing here but isn’t settling for less than the top of the ladder money for a DE. The Bengals I guess have become gun shy after Detroit took La Porta and Green Bay took Romeo Doubs. But they need a safety more than a running back like the Texas Tech kid. But I’m sure they were thinking 2026 with him. Stewart is definitely a crap shoot. But…his disruption and pressures shouldn’t be overlooked. Third down is the name of the game. Trey, Stewart, and Ossai could be tough on 3rd.
I probably would've liked the Stewart pick a bit more if we had traded Trey on day 2 and gotten another pick they're and maybe day 3. Doesn't make sense as far as wanting increase pass rush. But something about asking him to play out his final year while drafting his replacement just does not sit well with me. No other team would do this to they're players that have played well for them. It's a business but it's a business of dealing with people and we just don't treat our players with enough respect at times in my opinion.
