Your rants because Trey is not signed does not make your case.
How can you ignore that we could've lowered Tees and Chases cap hit this year instead of raising them. That we front loaded heavy cap hits on all the other players we signed. We could easily be sitting here with an actual starting caliber FA guard, trey and probably a safety signed and be no worse off.
Not signing Trey does piss me off but at this point it's more about us repeating mistakes. Trey is just another player that is too good to trade but not good enough to pay. I also think we are repeating the mistake of getting accustomed to the talent we see and undervaluing it. Trey led the league in sacks when has that happened in recent memory. That is not easily replaced and certainly not with a player that had some of the worst production data at his position in the last 25 years.
I do get the argument of waiting until the season gets under way. The problem is I know the Bengals will do nothing if the season starts and a player or position group is underperforming.
