If I'm right, they just sat on their hands and waited for the chance at a cheap deal. Then, they had no backup plan, unless you call a guy that wasn't good enough to spell an injured Clint Boling a backup plan. Think about it, Boling was better with one arm than Westerman. That's scary.
That's the thing, they are almost always waiting on the cheap deal. I read earlier that Dre actually turned down more money because he likes his neighborhood and didn't want to move.
As to the original question about are the Bengals going in the wrong direction, I think the answer is most definitely yes. I think they had a few good drafts, but have missed a lot lately. Add in the departure of free agents and it is really taking a toll on this team.
