Even if the Bengals were interested, I don't know if I would even want them to sign him.
1. The guy refused to sign a $14m franchise tender. That tells you roughly where you can expect him to cost. (Reports he was seeking $16m/yr)
2. He will turn 29 years old before the calendar year ends.
3. He has only had one good (admittedly very very good) year while surrounded by defensive talent.
4. He loves to run his mouth and thinks very very highly of himself. That can't lead to great locker room chemistry when you're not on a team that's 15-1 and playing in the SB.
Pass.
If the Bengals wanted to sign an elite CB in FA, they had their chance just last offseason with Revis. No reason to pay more for less.
