Compensatory Picks
#60
(09-05-2017, 12:16 AM)Hammerstripes Wrote: In all fairness, it's not the Bengals' model.  The Bengals are using the same model that a lot of teams use:  draft well, sign your own, don't shell out big money in FA.

The big difference is that the Bengals have always refused to bring in a big name/impact type guy to put them over the hump.  They avoid the big ticket in FA.

That being said, the Packers and Steelers have been successful using with this approach, but an argument can be made that Green Bay should have been to more Super Bowls then they have with Rodgers.

Us drafting well has been stretched quite a bit IMHO, as has resigning our own ! It sounds good to throw out there as more or less an excuse. But is it really happening ?

And the window for success is small by any measure. Many things factor in but by and large it's not very long. Knowing when and on whom to spend in FA is quite often one of the final keys to success.

The whole building for the future narrative that's been thrown around here in the past is more fantasy than not.
