If we lose either of those to a money issue its gonna be real hard for this FO to keep the fans from revolting.
I'm taking the re-signing of Tez on a "see it to believe it" basis. The Bengals don't value 4-3 LB enough to draft them in the 1st, yet they expect us to believe they are going to re-sign Tez to a contract that reflects his level of play? He's one of the top 5 LBs in the NFL. Right now he is 47th in average salaty at @ $4.7 mill per year. To pay him like a top 5 LB the Bengals are going to be looking at something like 5 year/$80 mill. $16 mill per year. Dalton makes $16 mill per, and AJ is only at $15. I find it incredibly hard to believe they are going to pay Tez what his play says he is worth. But at least it makes for good quotes when they say re-signing him is a top priority and it's why they need to roll over so much cap cash.
