I think the Bengals blew this smokescreen of not signing any of these guys just so people would be happy that we signed one or two of them. 

If this is true, I never really trusted them to sign Zeitler....so I'll gladly take Whit's deal being done and them trying to sign Dre, LaFell and Burkhead.  If Whit would have left to go to a contender, I don't trust the FO to pony up long term for Zeitler when they had all season and now he has the ability to walk.  

I get where you're coming from, it's an annual thing to downplay available money and expect guys to walk, but this could have been really messy (again hoping Whit actually signs).
