Like i said, this year is different. We usually keep our good players.
If you think Whit is not good, your memory is faulty. Same with Z, i might give him crap about his run blocking but is a good player.
Beaker if you think sticking with bad players like Og and Bodine is the right way to go, i don't know what to say..
I never claimed either of those guys we lost were bad players. But I am not sorry the Bengals didn't give a 37 yr old OT a 3 year contract....much less one at $12M per year with $15M guaranteed. We would have been right back in this boat next year when they couldn't sign other upcoming FAs like Eifert and Burfict. And those two guys are both much younger than Whit. The simple answer is thanks Whit, but we're not willing to overpay you like a struggling team desperate to get off the floor.
