I think the front office knows it's unlikely they'll be able to keep a lot of our top free agents. Our cap space may be used to resign some of our other players not up yet up. And of course you know funny math drill they'll feed us. So we have 30 million in cap room, but Hobs will soon tell us 10m will role over for future contracts, 5 million will go to rookies, 6 million will go to injury backup. We probably only will have enough to make a run at Hall and Sanu.
You'll have to come up with an argument and some historical precedent for the Bengals sacrificing current free agent priorities for future free agent priorities. I just don't see how they would. You make this year's free agents the priority in March and April, and work on future free agents in the summer. That's what we, and other teams do.
