My guess is the Bengals will grab a FA they wanted to draft 4 years ago, that has bounced around to about 4 teams, couldn't crack the lineup, because he isn't very good and proclaim they were active in FA like they said they would.

Call me crazy, but I have a strange feeling our "direction" in drafting and acquiring linemen through FA is going to change with the Piano Man gone.  I get the feeling through reports, that have leaked that he basically had total control of the OLine on the field and it follows that he likely greatly influenced the drafting and FA choices as well, likely due to the trust that MB put in him.  It just FEELS like this was a MB thing with the Piano Man.

Quote:Mike Brown:  "He's the expert.  He's been successful in the past.  He knows what he's doing." and  "No other coaches, and the head of personnel, you do not get to override the Piano Man's decisions.  I trust his judgement."

Feels like that is what was happening, and if so, there is likely to be a philosophy change due to a new OLine coach, an OC that now gets a say and a HC and Personnel guy that now also get a say in linemen.
