His grievance would fail because he would have signed the contract allowing it to happen.... and you'd be among the first in line creating a thread mocking him for "you signed the contract" when he complained about it being unfair.

If you don't trust the guy, then don't make him your 1st round draft pick. Burton got only $1m guaranteed as a 3rd round pick. We can cut him at any time in his contract and be fine. 

I know, let's have week to week contracts!  Cut any guy with no obligation ever.  One of them looks at someone sideways and that's it.  

One totally bonkers outside the box idea would be to; wait for it...  Increase investment in advanced scouting?  I mean a few other teams do this if by a few you mean every team not named the Bengals.  

Seems like the organization wants to be cheap slackasses, then avoid the consequences of their lack of effort (perhaps more appropriately, investment) when they come to fruition.  All stick, no carrot.
