Are the bengals really that cheap?

So would you be happier if the Bengals were actually paying the roster less but getting credit for millions of dollars of bonuses paid to players who are not even still with the team?

Yes. That is exactly what I said. I want the Bengals to pay bonuses to players not on the team. I never once made a mention of that. I never insinuated it, but that was the point of my post.

Some teams make bad deals. I didn't say I wanted the Bengals to sign bad deals. I want them to spend more of their cap than constantly rolling over money for tomorrow. Eventually, tomorrow has to come, right?
