Here's a part of it:
"In the coming weeks, the Bengals will have Kevin Zeitler, Andrew Whitworth and Domata Peko hitting the market. The first two players in particular will be drawing substantial interest, forcing Cincinnati to either open the checkbook or lose two critical pieces of the offensive line. In Zeitler’s case, he was a first-round selection and has become a top-notch guard in the league."
"Letting him walk sends a clear, unmistakable message. The Bengals are not about winning."
In my humble opinion the time is now if our core of good players is going to have any chance of seeing a Lombardi ! We do not have the time to continue "building" thru the draft. We need a couple upper tier FA's, three wouldn't hurt.
The window is going to shut sooner rather than later !
not worth the franchise tag though paying a RG LT money would be insane... So if he wont deal with us for before hitting the market then so be it... the only way the bengals can prevent that is by paying 2x as much as they should and that is bad business too.
