How is it, even remotely debatable, to say that IF we were gonna restructure Burrow's contract & save $19 mil vs the cap, it would have been a better idea to do it WHEN FREE AGENCY STARTED instead of now. That way, we could have signed better FAs, as opposed to now, when they are virtually all gone? 

Are you just trolling or do you legit think $19 mil in cap space is more useful now? That question is not rhetorical. Either way, you are seriously starting to annoy me. I'm not saying we should or shouldn't have, but if we were gonna, we would have done it already. Get it?

Having a plan or if there was a legit DT they wanted are beside the point. 

Yes, I am serious because I use common sense, they did not structure and put money into deals, yet still have 20 million to use in 2025, so my take is that was their plan and they disagreed with you on overloading a ton if cash on any FA guard. You valued these big money guys more than the FO did or they would have signed one of them.. Why is that hard to understand that YOUR WAY WAS NOT THE BENGALS PLAN.

So get upset, but it is makes no sense when at this point of free agency we still have 20 million left minus Fant. I fthey would have did contracts and ppushed themm into 2026 and later, we could have 30 or 40 million right now. Once they decided the top guard was not a value or fit, then they did not need more cap space.They valued having money for a guy like Fant than they did available OG or DT's. We all think a vet OG like Hernandez would be great and they have the money to do it. It is very debatable if we need a DT this year, many like Slayton, Hill, Jenkins and Jackson.
