Rey was never as bad as some fans claimed, but he could have been replaced by now.
Michael Johnson is one of the top 30-35 DEs in the league and is paid accordingly. We could not replace his production for the same price on the free agent market.
Jones is one of our best CBs. He was actually one of the top 5 CBs in the league when he signed his current contract after the 15 season.
You must be a very new Bengal fan. Or else you need to have a talk with Kyle Cook, Deltha Oneal, Rudi Johnson, and Willie Anderson.
PJ Dawson was a 3rd Round pick and cut after 1 season.
The frustrating thing with Bodine is the Bengals draft guys in the 1st Round that they don't play at all except on special teams in year 1. Bodine was a 4th Round pick and they draft him and hand him the starting job.
I wish they would have signed a free agent to compete with him for that starting job. Not even necessarily an Alex Mack...but some free agent to compete.
