"we keep our own"

I seem to remember if was a mix of the Bengals paying the patient game and Smith looking for bigger numbers than he was going to get and that turned out okay for the team. Not that this tactic doesn't obviously have the risk of the player leaving no matter what a bit like MLJ who wanted to be the go to guy even for the same money (or a little less I believe).

Andre hurt his own stock up to that point. He had the red flags coming into the 09 draft. The hold out, the injured foot, the sluggish play his first real season (2010). He expected some huge deal for basically one good season, but no one wanted to gamble on him. The Bengals had their offer, but Andre seemed to want out of here. Night two of the draft roles around and the Bengals threaten to take Menalik Watson in the 2nd. Andre caved and took the deal. He goes into another offseason where he's met with another cold market and stuck with a 1 year prove it deal. It's unlikely he'll get anything close to what we gave him in 2013 this year.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
