Especially considering they’d have more cap room after those deals if they structured the deals differently. They purposefully didn’t.
And they could have signed both earlier and saved millions.
The took a guy with their FRP who was absolutely a reach and now may not even sign him. And the second rounder, the 25 y/o everyone thinks will start day one, is also unsigned.
Didn’t do nearly enough to fix the OL. Which should surprise no one.
They’re inept. And it’s beyond frustrating.
I don't know that they're inept, but they don't optimize cap space and try to save money which sometimes costs them money.
With Burrow, this team will never be really bad. They know that they can field a middle-tier roster and win 8-9 games with Burrow. Then, if things break right win 11-12 games and maybe make a playoff run. That's precisely why you keep Tee and Chase. Have a high-powered offense.
But, yes...they aren't going to spend every penny to make a great offensive line and defense. They're going to rely on unproven young guys to take a leap. It hasn't worked.
And teams like the Bills, Chiefs, Ravens, and Steelers aggressively try to improve their rosters.
