That even though most people worked out the math that the Bengals really should have about $30-35 million to work with this offseason after removing adequate funds for the draft and injury insurance without cutting any dead weight, they say they could only spend $15 million.
If the $30-35 million, as we predicted, would actually have been spent, the Bengals could have afforded Whitworth, Zeitler, and LaFell.
But if we go by Hobson's $15 million number, LaFell took up a third of that, leaving only $10 million. That was not enough to retain Whitworth or Zeitler, both getting $12 million a year average over multiple years.
So the Broncos have the same cap space as us.
They signed Ronald Leary. Are in the running for Calais Campbell. And supposedly will pick up Romo if released.
