I could understand signing Sims or Thompson, but not both.

Not a fan of Tate. Also not a fan of coming close to signing Mays.

LaFell would be a good choice to get as a slot receiver. Dansby would be a great addition to the defense.

But it's been pretty average. Didn't sign anybody, didn't get better at any position. Lost two WRs.

Now, if we lose out on Treadwell, Docston, and Coleman in the 1st round, then I think we are significantly worse. I like Fuller and Shepherd, but I don't see them being viable #2 options and they're better fits in the slot, as is LaFell.

I'm of the same mindset, for the most part.
I feel that signing both Thompson and Sims means less priority on DT in the draft. The Bengals like familiarity too much.
Same goes with Tate and possibly Mays (if he does end up re-signing).
As you said, the team hasn't improved at all from before FA started - it got worse.
Because of that, I give it a "C".

If the Bengals pick up Lafell and Dansby plus nail the draft, it can be an A.
