I think, as someone else already alluded to earlier, that the bengals value their known commodities more than an outside FA. So in the minds of the front office, once Marvin walked and George re-signed we had enough for one more big deal and another medium sized deal. They preferred jones and vinny for those contracts because we know what we're gonna get from those two, even if WR was a bigger need.
Would you rather have pacman or an overpriced vet WR from another team who could very easily bust here (Coles, Bryant, etc)? Considering what Sanu got paid, I'm glad they haven't gone out and offered a similar contract to a similar player. I tend to agree that our guys are a better bet than bringing in an outsider.
That said I expect some cheap vet to come in as competition later on, some fans will think he'll be great and he won't do shit like we've seen year after year. The holes left by Jones/Sanu will be filled by draft picks and in house guys, I personally hope to see more from Burkhead next year. As long as we get one of the top WR's in the draft I think they'll be fine
