The Bengals have the fewest scouts in NFL, almost no scouts at all really. I don't expect Bengals to go from last to first on scouts. 16th or 17th would amaze me. Are Bengals willing to have to be in the middle of the 32 teams on scouts on payroll at 16th or 17th in NFL. ...I tell you now that if Bengals are still unwilling to hire scouts then Bengals are not committed to Super Bowl. This has nothing to do with GM, which Bengals will never have. There is no reason for no scouts other than cheapness. Bengals are always last in scouting, asking coaches to make up the difference. It is a CHEAPNESS that plays greatly into the 27 years without a play-off win. It's impossible for Bengals to remain last in scouting and be first in a Super Bowl win. ...SO, will Bengals hire scouts NOW going into free agency and draft ? If they don't, the talk of rebuilding for Super Bowl is an illusion as much as sawing a woman in half. Will they hire scouts ?
Nope, they won't.
The Bengals are like a small software company.
Their coaches are like the developers. They also are expected to do all the QA and documentation since the company refuses to (or can't) pay for dedicated head count for those roles specifically.
